Dear members, I would like to use the GNU Autotools for the following scenario. I would like to use the already existing GNUMakefiles of a project and their respective targets and rules. This should be renamed to Makefile.in. I would like to use it as a template with some place holders which obtain their values from a specific config file. In this config file I would like to manually fill in the unit specific information which should be passed to the template make file. I do not want this to be done by the the GNU Tools depending on the environment. I just want to separate the list of variables and their definition's from the "template" (actual GNUMakefile for the specific subfolder). Is this possible to be done? In the first chapter I have seen that that the tools may be used to generate files from templates containing replacement variables, which is what I would like. If possible to use config file with unit specific information into this template? But, might be that I have to write my own substitution macros for autoconfigure or there is an easier way. Can you please include a short example? Thanks in advance for your suggestions and answers.
