Hi Eric, > What if we create and document the following macro names: > > AC_COMMAND_IFELSE(command with args, if-true, if-false) > AC_EVAL_IFELSE(variable, if-true, if-false) > > where AC_EVAL_IFELSE([variable]) is shorthand for AC_COMMAND_IFELSE([eval > "$variable"])? Does that solve the immediate need? Sounds good. Should the arguments support double-quoting or only single-quoting? I.e. if there is a macro LT_LINK_COMMAND which expands into a command with arguments (possibly containing commas), should the user then write AC_COMMAND_IFELSE([LT_LINK_COMMAND], ..., ...) or AC_COMMAND_IFELSE(LT_LINK_COMMAND, ..., ...) ? And what do you plan to do regarding ac_link and ac_compile, which are currently undocumented?
