The easier part is addressed by Jeff's macro, or the AC_FC_PP_DEFINE macro I've recently added to git Autoconf. There's also AC_FC_PP_SRCEXT which is new. Unless you try to do configure tests for preprocessed Fortran, that's about as much as you'll need for Autoconf. I haven't done the needed changes for better pp-Fortran support in Automake yet. So what we've been using in our projects so far as a workaround is something like the file below which I've then included from all Makefile.am files that process Fortran. One thing that you can't do with this is per-target flags (because then automake will generate per-target rules and the suffix rules below will not be used). As a workaround you can avoid per-target flags, require GNU make, and use its target-specific flags instead, as in foo.o : AM_FCFLAGS += $(FC_DEFINE)HAVE_FOO But in time we should have automake updated to provide all this seamlessly, I hope. Hope that helps. Cheers, Ralf # Makefile.am include fragment with Fortran helper rules and macros.
