Needless to say, I only typed a quick answer, rather than trying to test
it. There are two arguments to AM_CONDITIONAL, so both should be quoted.
Then you have a choice:
AM_CONDITIONAL([BUILD_DRIVER_[]UP], [...])
calls AM_CONDITIONAL with a string for the first argument; wherever
AM_CONDITIONAL outputs that string, the string is subject to reparsing,
and it is the reparsing that sees that UP is a macro.
When I use:
AM_CONDITIONAL([BUILD_DRIVER_[]UP], test "x${[use_]DOWN[_driver]}" =
"xyes")
automake complains:
src/lib/Makefile.am:8: BUILD_DRIVER_BDF does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL
autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1
AM_CONDITIONAL([BUILD_DRIVER_]UP, [...])
calls AM_CONDITIONAL with a string consisting of UP already expanded (ok
if UP is alphanumeric, but with the potential for m4 syntax confusion if
it contains anything in the character class [][,()].
both solutions:
AM_CONDITIONAL([BUILD_DRIVER_]UP, [test "x${use_]DOWN[_driver}" = "xyes"])
AM_CONDITIONAL([BUILD_DRIVER_]UP, test "x${[use_]DOWN[_driver]}" = "xyes")
are working
