Thanks for all the help with getting this to work initially. I now have all the architectures (i386, i686, ppc, and sparc) and also linux and Solaris 8 working. However, the Mingw32/MSYS/Windows version doesn't want to compile - I think this is mostly because it is trying to create the normal ar library (e.g. libos.a); whilst VC normally creates static libraries differently (how, I'm not sure) using the lib extension (e.g. libos.lib). Which is really what brings me to my question: 1) I noticed via the following post[1] that the idea of a LIBEXT has been brought up before, but I didn't see any resolution. Is there something working (or in the works) to bring this about? I would really like to be able to specify the libraries as libos$(LIBEXT) - though I'm not sure how that would work with the Makefile.am (e.g. libos_a_SOURCES would go to what - libos_$(LIBEXT)_SOURCES?) (I've still got quite a bit to learn. ;-) 2) For those of you that are using the MSYS environment - is there any other way to create a static library using the Autotools under MSYS? I've also included a URL[2] to my lastest version. It doesn't compile under MSYS yet due to the above. But is working quite well otherwise.
