Can autoscan deal with f90 programs? Unfortunately, autoscan deals primarily with C, not Fortran. So I'm not entirely surprised that it isn't turning up much. But running autoscan tends to be a once-only process done at the initial autoconfiscation time, and not something done regularly (that explains why it doesn't work as well); and since it is not a prerequisite to writing a working autoconf.ac and using autoconf, it shouldn't hurt if you skip that step as useless in your situation. > > I then tried to go back to square 1 and found a mini tutorial about > autoconf..

It should only be called once (and hmm, maybe we should improve AC_INIT to detect and diagnose duplicate invocation in a nicer manner than just complaining about unbalanced diversions). > echo " Testing for a FORTRAN compiler" > AC_PROG_F77 Do you really want to test for AC_PROG_F77 if you are compiling f90 sources, or did you mean AC_PROG_FC([], [Fortran 90]) Also, have you read the automake tutorial? http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Autotools-Introduction It sounds like you want to use both autoconf and automake together, if you are worried about tracking which .f90 files are built into your package. -- Eric Blake eblake@xxxxxxxxxx +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
