Re: Short and easy flag to have configure compile default modules as shared objects?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm not sure why I didn't think of this before, but I added that one
line to 'configure'.

me@mybox:~/httpd-2.2.11.jeff-1
$ diff configure configure.1
8162d8161
<         module_default=shared

And I ran:

./configure --enable-mods-shared

And after I run 'make' I find what I was hoping for: all the default
modules compiled as shared objects.

$ find . -name '*.so'
./modules/mappers/.libs/mod_alias.so
./modules/mappers/.libs/mod_negotiation.so
./modules/mappers/.libs/mod_userdir.so
./modules/mappers/.libs/mod_actions.so
./modules/mappers/.libs/mod_dir.so
./modules/http/.libs/mod_mime.so
./modules/loggers/.libs/mod_log_config.so
./modules/filters/.libs/mod_include.so
./modules/filters/.libs/mod_filter.so
./modules/metadata/.libs/mod_setenvif.so
./modules/metadata/.libs/mod_env.so
./modules/generators/.libs/mod_status.so
./modules/generators/.libs/mod_asis.so
./modules/generators/.libs/mod_autoindex.so
./modules/generators/.libs/mod_cgi.so
./modules/aaa/.libs/mod_authn_file.so
./modules/aaa/.libs/mod_authz_groupfile.so
./modules/aaa/.libs/mod_authz_host.so
./modules/aaa/.libs/mod_auth_basic.so
./modules/aaa/.libs/mod_authz_default.so
./modules/aaa/.libs/mod_authn_default.so
./modules/aaa/.libs/mod_authz_user.so
./srclib/apr/.libs/libapr-1.so
./srclib/apr-util/.libs/libaprutil-1.so
./srclib/apr-util/xml/expat/lib/.libs/libexpat.so

After I don't modify 'configure' and do the same thing, then I get:

$ find . -name '*.so'
./srclib/apr/.libs/libapr-1.so
./srclib/apr-util/.libs/libaprutil-1.so
./srclib/apr-util/xml/expat/lib/.libs/libexpat.so

So that one change gave me what I was looking for.

However, did I just add a feature I wanted or fix a small 'configure'
bug?  Does this belong on the Developer list instead?
