Hi,
I want to write a "autoconf/automake" script for an application ONLY for
32 bit on 64 bit Linux.
This meant that the default for configure must be 32 bit and nothing else.
I know that a user can do "configure CC="gcc -m32"... etc but this is
NOT what I want.
I want that the 'configure' script set the 32bin once at start and fix.
---------------------------------
my FIRST try fails, the "CCT-MARK" does NOT show up in configure :
# CCT-MARK
#
https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Cross_002dCompilation.html
# force 32 bit only
export CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -m32 -O2"
export CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS -m32 -O2"
export LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -m32 -O2"
# set CCT3 VERSION information also in:
AC_INIT(....)
AC_CANONICAL_TARGET
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([gnu tar-ustar no-dist-gzip dist-bzip2 -Wno-portability
subdir-objects])
---------------------------------------
my SECOND try fails to, the "CCT-MARK" show up but too late :
# set CCT3 VERSION information also in:
AC_INIT(....)
# CCT-MARK
#
https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Cross_002dCompilation.html
# force 32 bit only
export CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -m32 -O2"
export CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS -m32 -O2"
export LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -m32 -O2"
AC_CANONICAL_TARGET
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([gnu tar-ustar no-dist-gzip dist-bzip2 -Wno-portability
subdir-objects])
The "CCT-MARK" section is AFTER the ac_XXXX definition, I think this
mean that tests are done
with 64 bit.
