Hi,
I'm new to autotools, I want to generate 'foobar.h' from 'configure'.
I created 'src/foobar.h.in' with following content:
=========
#define PATH_PREFIX "@prefix@"
#define PATH_DATADIR "@datadir@"
=========
And put 'src/foobar.h' in AC_CONFIG_FILES() in 'configure.ac'.
After I run 'autoreconf', the 'src/foobar.h' is generated, however, I got 2
problem for it.
First, the generated content is:
=========
#define PATH_PREFIX "/home/tao/unstable/stardict"
#define PATH_DATADIR "${prefix}/share"
=========
"${prefix}" is definitely not working as a C/C++ header. How can I replace
the ${prefix} with the real value?
Second, everytime I modified the file 'src/foobar.h.in', and run 'make all',
it cannot regenerate 'src/foobar.h'. Is there anything wrong? Why make
doesn't know the dependency?
Thanks.
