Hi,
I am attempting to use autotools to create a program
that uses two shared libraries: libcsv and libical.
I was able to get everything working up to the point
of detecting the first library. The relevant part of
my configure.ac script is here:
-----
# check for libcsv
AC_CHECK_LIB(csv,
main,
LIBS="$LIBS -lcsv",
AC_MSG_ERROR([*** libcsv library not found!])
)
# check for libical
AC_CHECK_LIB(ical,
main,
LIBS="$LIBS -lical",
AC_MSG_ERROR([*** libical library not found!])
)
------
I'm pretty sure I have all the syntax right because
configure finds libcsv without a problem, but I cannot
get it to locate libical for the life of me. I tried
a bunch of different (valid) functions instead of
"main" just in case, but to no avail.
The other thing is that I went ahead and tried to
compile manually, setting the -lical flag, and it
worked! My program started right up and was using
libical fine. I also checked to make sure that
libical was installed in the correct directories and
everything looked in order (and just like libcsv!)
So I think the library is installed and I think I have
the syntax right but configure still says it cannot
find the library.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Andy
