FWIW, it looks okay to me, but Ralf will > have to chime in. Here's a ping for Ralph. Would love to see the patch to compile applied. There's still another piece missing before C++ files compile "out of the box" with autoconf/automake/libtool + MSVC. My original message is here: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.autoconf.general/11969 The missing piece is that I need to modify the generated Makefile from CXX = cl to CXX = <absolute path to>/compile cl >From looking at automake/m4/minuso.m4, I'm not sure if it's acceptable to do something like: diff --git a/m4/minuso.m4 b/m4/minuso.m4 old mode 100644 new mode 100755 index d8b1620..4a265c1 --- a/m4/minuso.m4 +++ b/m4/minuso.m4 @@ -27,6 +27,7 @@ if test "$am_t" != yes; then # A longer-term fix would be to have automake use am__CC in this case, # and then we could set am__CC="\$(top_srcdir)/compile \$(CC)" CC="$am_aux_dir/compile $CC" + CXX="$am_aux_dir/compile $CXX" fi dnl Make sure AC_PROG_CC is never called again, or it will override our dnl setting of CC. or whether we need a new autoconf macro AC_PROG_CXX_C_O and a corresponding new AM_PROG_CXX_C_O.
