Hi, I have a strange problem with my autotools setup. I have configure.ac in the top directories and Makefile.am in all source directories and top directories. I use a sequence autoreconf --install cd build ../configure <options> make Sometime this works fine. On other occasions I get an error automake-1.10: no Automake input file found for `activation_analyser/src/Makefile.in' automake-1.10: no input file among supplied arguments. sometime this happens because I have edited a Makefile.am without clearing out the build directory and repeating the autoreconf step. Is this the wrong way to use autotools? Also, I am a bit confused about when to use $(srcdir) and $(top_builddir). I have several related executables and libraries. In Makefile.am I use AM_CPPFLAGS=$(srcdir)/../include to get the exported header files for the current target $(srcdir)/../../libname/include to get exported header files for library name. bin_PROGRAM=exec exec_SOURCES=exec.c exec_LDADD=$(top_builddir)/../libname/src/.libs -lname to link the library. Is there a better way of doing this? thanks dan _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
