Could I turn a .def file into a .a file? Currently, I do this: lib%.a: %.def $(DLLTOOL) $(DLLOPTS) --dllname $*.dll --def=$(top_srcdir)/$*.def Then I put all the lib*.a files in a big foo_DATA variable. What I would rather do is make use of the _LIBRARIES primaries to do it that way. Is that possible, considering that I'm synthesizing import libraries from a .def file instead of building them from source? _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
