Hey,

when a configure frile is created, shretx_cmds is defined to the file

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)
ok. Then I prefer AC_DEFINE (as we already include config.h, no need to
make a specific file just for what I want).
If using shrext_cmds is a good way, then it's fine for me. I was afraid
that it was something to not use because the name could change in the
future, or something like that.
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.
libltdl is of no use for our purposes. Thanks anyway.

Vincent Torri
