Hi guys, I was wondering what is the usual way to handle non-standard flags, without hard-coding them in the configure.ac, nor the makefile.am files. However, I also don't want to have them in the command line because they are just too many. The code that I write uses some libraries that are not installed in the usual system paths so when I configure my software I have to do it like $> ./configure CXXFLAGS="-I~/Workspace/Lib/lib1/include -I~/Workspace/Lib/lib2/include ..." LDFLAGS="-L... the same as with CXXFLAGS, you get the picture" Of course the line above won't do anything, but you get what I mean. Now imagine that instead of 2 libraries, I have 10!!! It's really annoying to have a very big command line with all those arguments. I've been hard-coding these in the Makefile.am but I don't think that's the best approach. Can anyone point me to the way it's done? Thank you all, aa -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/how-to-specify-flags-without-having-them-in-the-command-line-call-to-.-configure--tp16239570p16239570.html Sent from the Gnu - Autoconf - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
