Hi, I work on plug-ins for MySQL and building a plug-in out side of the MySQL tree requires that you configure your build with the same compiler settings as the MySQL build that you are targeting. To do this I have created a macro that uses a --with-mysql configuration option to give it the location the local MySQL build. This macro then reads the config.status file from the MySQL build to get the build flags of interest. The problem of course is that the format of config.status is not constant and every time some one finds a format I haven't come across yet I need to update the macro to handle it. Can someone suggest a better way of doing this? It would be really useful if there was a configure option that would allow you to point to another location and tell configure to get it's settings from there.
