Hi Nicolai I do understand what you're saying, but that's what I really try to avoid. There is a really huge reason why not to do what you say, As I say earlier: > Also, you shell noticed than this scripts compile from vala language if compiler exist, otherwise it use C compiler. > (Vala compiles first to C, and then to binaries) This is almost a standard in vala written packages. So what happen if I use AM_PROG_VALAC([min_vala_vers])? If the user don't have this, it fails to compile, because it The trick of *_vala.stamp is taken from the automake automatic support of vala, but I want to do it differently(so it can compiles only with gcc). Type ./configure --help, and notice the --enable-vala and --disable-vala. The example I used for doing this is in directory ./examples/automake of xfce4-vala package, here it is: http://archive.xfce.org/src/bindings/xfce4-vala/ Thanks, Tal > From: nicolai.stange@xxxxxxx > To: autoconf@xxxxxxx > Subject: Re: distclean rule works well, but distcheck said it doesn't. > Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2011 11:10:01 +0200 > > Hi Tal, > > Now I had a deeper look. > Did you notice that Automake has builtin Vala support doing exactly what > you want: http://www.gnu.org/s/hello/manual/automake/Vala-Support.html > > Just call AM_PROG_VALAC from within configure.ac and add your *.vala > files to your *_SOURCES as you would have done with ordinary C files. > > Best > > Nicolai > > _______________________________________________ > Autoconf mailing list > Autoconf@xxxxxxx > https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
