Currently, I'm setting my upc file extensions to .c so that they will
compile without complaint from Automake, however it's obviously more clear
if they had a .upc extension:
foo_la_SOURCES = \
main.c
test.c
I want:
foo_la_SOURCES = \
main.upc
test.upc
I found this documentation:
18.2 Handling new file extensions
https://idlebox.net/2009/apidocs/automake-1.11.zip/automake_18.html#SEC148
So I'm assuming I can do this:
.upc.o:
upcc -c -o $@ $<
But this would have to be in every Makefile.am where I'd want to compile
UPC. Also, I would have to do a lot of configure checking and setting up
myself so that I can use $(UPC) as the compiler in my rule, check that
upc/upcc is available, etc. The AM_PROG_UPC macro seemed like the most
convenient method.
Thanks,
Justin
