Hello, I'm using autoconf 2.59, automake 1.9.6, and libtool 1.5.22 to cross-build a package for another architecture. I added the following rule to Makefile.am: %.map: % $(NM) -n --defined-only $< |egrep -v '\$$a|\$$d' >$@ I had to add the line below to configure.ac to make it do what I want. AC_SUBST(NM, "$NM") Questions: 1. Why isn't it available to make by default, like $(CC)? 2. $(CC) is the compiler generating code for the host system. What is the var containing the name of the compiler generating code for the build system? Thanks in advance, Baurzhan. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
