You could plainly call AX_BOOST_BASE with the respective arguments, instead of AC_REQUIRE'ing it, iff you can deal with the fact that it may be expanded more than once. But the way you did in the other post doesn't seem unreasonable. > (I could declare a second parameter for AX_BOOST_BASE which should be > not not public but only used if the macro is called from another boost > macro but is it OK ?) Hmm. > 2. > ./configure --help lists also the help-string for ax_boost_base.m4 > although the macro is only called indirectly by ax_boost_date_time.m4 > respectively ax_boost_program_options.m4. Is that not what is desired? Cheers, Ralf _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
