I'm trying to determine the version of GNU Fortran by parsing the compiler's standard output when passed the --version option. I cannot use AC_COMPILE_IFELSE, as the compiler doesn't generate an object file when passed --version, and AC_COMPILE_IFELSE requires that for success. I've resorted to using the _AC_CC macro to get the name of the compiler so that I can execute it directly, but that's not good practice. Is there a public macro which provides the compiler for a given language? Thanks, Diab _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
