when a configure frile is created, shretx_cmds is defined to the file
extension of a shared object, wrt the platform (.dll for windows, .so for
unix, ...).
What I can do is AC_DEFINE a macro using $shrext_cmds and using that macro in
my code.
Is there a better way to achieve that ?
AC_DEFINE works well for anything that preprocesses config.h.
You could also store the result like so:
SHREXT=$shrext_cmds
AC_SUBST(SHREXT)
to perform configure-substitution on @SHREXT@ on AC_OUTPUT files.
As as a side question: are you trying to do something that libtool/libltdl
could handle? libltdl's lt_dlopenext() loads modules given the base name
without the file extension, which takes some pain out of portability.
