Hello everybody, I have just upgraded to autoconf 2.63 (from 2.61) and I am now struggling with way the AC_CHECK_FUNCS behaves when cross compiling: In the past, I have used AC_CHECK_FUNCS to test whether certain functions are available on the the target host. But with 2.63, the test in AC_CHECK_FUNCS now, additionally, returns true if $cross_compiling is set to "yes" (which is always true in my case) and, thus, always declares a HAVE_SOMEFUNCTION, regardless whether the function is actually available. I understand that there was a reason for adding the extra check for $cross_compiling to AC_LINK_IFELSE: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2007-03/msg00085.html Is there a convenient way to check for functions available on the target host, even when cross compiling? Best wishes, Thies _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
