Hi all,
How would I get autoconf to #define the install paths in my config.h ?
My app needs a shared data directory like: /usr/share/myapp,
how would I get that path?
This is a way to do it for package "MyApp":
eval "eval DATA_DIR=$datadir"
AC_SUBST(DATA_DIR)
MyAppSharePath="${DATA_DIR}/MyApp"
MyAppSharePathDefine="${MyAppSharePath}/"
AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED(MyAppSharePath,"$MyAppSharePathDefine",Directory where architecture-independent files live.)
AC_SUBST(MyAppSharePath)
The AC_SUBST(DATA_DIR) defines DATA_DIR, and the
AC_SUBST(MyAppSharePath) defines MyAppSharePath, in case you also want
to use it in your Makefiles (e.g. to support install).
