Hi Ralf, thanks for replying. I don't understand much the m4 code. I can say
that it stopped working after upgrading autotools. Part of the macro (the
one that fails) is:
AC_DEFUN([DX_REQUIRE_PROG], [
AC_PATH_TOOL([$1], [$2])
if test "$DX_FLAG_[]DX_CURRENT_FEATURE$$1" = 1; then
AC_MSG_WARN([$2 not found - will not DX_CURRENT_DESCRIPTION])
AC_SUBST([DX_FLAG_[]DX_CURRENT_FEATURE], 0)
fi
])
so I tried doing what you suggested in two of the lines above (replacing []
with ][ solved it). Then the same problem showed up somewhere else:
# Turn off the DX_CURRENT_FEATURE if the required feature is off.
AC_DEFUN([DX_CLEAR_DEPEND], [
test "$DX_FLAG_$1" = "$2" || AC_SUBST([DX_FLAG_][DX_CURRENT_FEATURE], 0)
])
and I did the same. Then everything was fine, but the macro is broken now
because no configuration file for Doxygen was written. Since I don't
understand the code above, I have no idea what's doing. Do you know what's
going on?
