fix checks for boost chrono and unit_test

better to have test programs that do not produce warnings.

AX_DIST_RPM: various fixes
- At some point macros was added to aminclude_static.am instead of
aminclude.am. Change description.
- Inserted make conditional so rules don't mess around in subdirectories.
Putting .spec files here via dist-hook breaks rpmbuild.
- Run gawk with LC_ALL=C to produce english dates in RPMChangeLog understood by
rpmbuild.
- Escape $PLATFORM_SUFFIX so variable given at configure time is used instead
of env variable present at the time aclocal is run.
- Change .i. to just .. in rpm target. i* was probably meant to match i386 but
does not match x86_64.
If there is any suggestions to improving this just let me know. The check for
being at the top-level makefile seems a bit ugly but I can't come up with a
better solution. Checking for MAKELEVEL == 0 doesn't work.

AX_GCC_ARCHFLAG: update Broadwell CPUID patterns.
Update Broadwell patterns in ax_gcc_archflag.m4 to match Intel
documentation. Per "Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software
Developer’s Manual", Vol. 4, Table 2-1 "CPUID Signature Values of
DisplayFamily_DisplayModel" the following Family/Model combinations are
possible for Broadwell CPUs:
- 06_3DH
- 06_47H
- 06_4FH
- 06_56H
Before this patch only the first combination was recognized, with all
other Broadwell models falling into the '*??6??:*:*:*' case

Fix crossbuild for AX_BOOST_BASE
gource fails to cross build from source for wicked reasons. It
terminates with:
| Could not link against -lGLU !
But that is a red herring. GLU is found. It just happens that ax_lib
contains something old. The problem here is that BOOSTLIBDIR ends up
being empty. It is derived from BOOST_LDFLAGS e.g. in AX_BOOST_SYSTEM or
AX_BOOST_FILESYSTEM. Those latter macros expect that BOOST_LDFLAGS
contains a -L flag. That flag goes missing during cross compilation. In
AC_BOOST_BASE, the variable "libsubdirs" is properly set up to contain
the multiarch libdir of the host architecture first. However, it is only
searched for native compilation. For Debian systems, removing the cross
compiling guard would likely resolve the issue. I'm less sure that this
is universally correct though. Maybe a good solution would be to split
"libsubdirs" into the multiarch directory (which would always be
searched) and the others, which would only be searched for native
compilation. I am attaching a patch for this approach.

AX_PROG_HELP2MAN: new macro
AX_PROG_HELP2MAN is a macro which helps using help2man to automatically

system, adds the --disable-help2man option to the configure script and
sets various variables for use in configure or Makefile.am files.

AX_BOOST_BASE: Make tests more portable.
This commit makes `test` calls in AX_BOOST_BASE more uniform.
Comparisons with the empty string are replaced with the `-n` and `-z`
arguments. Comparisons with non-empty strings are done in the common portable
way (e.g. `test "x$succeesed" = "xyes"`). The fragile `-a` argument is
replaced by `&&`.
2017-08-01 Nico Madysa <nico.madysa@tu-dresden.de>
AX_BOOST_BASE: Fix missing BOOST_LDFLAGS.
AX_BOOST_BASE first checks if Boost is installed in a standard location
and sets BOOST_CPPFLAGS and BOOST_LDFLAGS accordingly.
If Boost cannot be found, these variables are reset. Further proceedings
depend on whether the actual location was passed in via
--with-boost=<path> or not. If it was, BOOST_CPPFLAGS is determined
automatically based on the given path. This automatic detection, however, did
not include BOOST_LDFLAGS.
Consequently, if Boost is in a non-standard location that is given via
--with-boost, the user would also have to specify --with-boost-libdir.
This commit fixes this issue by also determining BOOST_LDFLAGS
automatically in this particular branch of execution. The performed
check is very similar to the one done in various other locations of the
macro.

AX_PYTHON_DEVEL: Swap values of PYTHON_EXTRA_LIBS, PYTHON_EXTRA_LDFLAGS
The LIBS and SYSLIBS Python configuration variables are lists of
libraries, with typical values (on Debian GNU/Linux) being
LIBS = -lpthread -ldl -lutil
SYSLIBS = -lm
so they should clearly be in a LIBS variable, not LDFLAGS.
Conversely, the LINKFORSHARED Python configuration variable contains
miscellaneous linker options, with its value on Debian being
-Xlinker -export-dynamic -Wl,-O1 -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions
so it should be in the LDFLAGS.
This matters when linking statically or using a particularly
pedantic linker: LDFLAGS appear on the linker command-line before
the object files to be linked and (with some linkers) cannot satisfy
undefined symbols, whereas LIBS appear after the object files in
dependency order.

AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE: new macro
AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE is a macro akin to AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS which allows
to run other configure scripts. AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE attempts to follow
the same rules as AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS such as:
- command line arguments from the parent configure script are given to
the child configure script.
- some arguments are modified (for instance `--cache-file`, `--srcdir`)
However, as opposed to AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS, AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE takes 4
additional parameters which correspond to:
- arguments that must always be passed down to child configure scripts.
- arguments that may be merged with existing arguments.
- arguments that must replace existing arguments.
- arguments that must never be passed to the configure scripts.
Subdirectories recorded with AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE are added to the new
`subdirs_extra` variable instead of `subdirs`.

ax_valgrind_check: Don't eat check-valgrind errors
Currently, after running 'make check-valgrind', $? will always be 0 even
if there was an error during the test. This differs from make check
which will return a non-0 exit code when there was a test failure, and
gets in the way of using 'make check-valgrind' during CI.
This commit switches from using make -k on each individual target to
running make -k on all the targets at once. This way, we will run the
tests for all targets even if one fails, while still reporting a non-0
exit code if there was a test failure.

AX_CHECK_ENABLE_DEBUG: Do not conflict with -DNDEBUG
Since -DNDEBUG is equivalent to "#define NDEBUG 1", explicitly set
the value to ensure that both definitions are equivalent and won't
lead to compiler warnings.
This makes AX_CHECK_ENABLE_DEBUG compatible with AX_CODE_COVERAGE, as
the latter causes -DNDEBUG to be set.
In particular, if AX_COMPILER_FLAGS is also used and thus -Werror
is set (which is the default in that case) this avoids the following
build failure:

AX_BOOST_BASE: fix issue whereby --with-boost-libdir options were lost
If the macro AX_BOOST_BASE does not detect a simple "system" layout for boost,
it tries to find it in versioned directories. Unfortunately, that path of logic
set BOOST_LDFLAGS to null. Other parts of the code already check
ac_boost_lib_path before altering BOOST_LDFLAGS, except for one place.

ax_code_coverage: remove lcov version check
The version check does not support the latest version of lcov (1.12).
The history of this module[1][2][3][4] does not reveal a rationale for
the check and its utility seems dubious. Rather than applying yet another
temporary fix, remove the check.
Note: The issue of version check removal was raised on
autoconf-archive-maintainers[5] without response.

ax_code_coverage: avoid GNU Make extensions
ifeq/ifneq is a GNU Make extension which doesn't work with BSD Make and
others, resulting in errors such as:
Missing dependency operator
Need an operator
warning: duplicate script for target "ifeq" ignored
Although it would be preferable to use the Automake conditionals
(AM_CONDITIONAL) in the make rules, this does not appear to be possible
within AC_SUBST content. Instead, build the rules using shell variable
concatenation and only AC_SUBST the ones which should be used.

ax_compiler_flags_*: fix underquoting causing infinite recursion
These macros would fail with infinite recursion if used twice for the
same variable, for example
AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_CFLAGS([WARN_CFLAGS], ... some options ...)
AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_CFLAGS([WARN_CFLAGS], ... more options ...)
In particular, invoking AX_COMPILER_FLAGS, followed by
AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_CFLAGS with more "yes" options has this failure mode.
This is because the first time through the macro, we define
ax_warn_cflags_variable = "WARN_CFLAGS" as expected. The second time,
because the first parameter is underquoted, its value is substituted
before calling m4_define, so we inadvertently define
WARN_CFLAGS = "WARN_CFLAGS". The next time WARN_CFLAGS is mentioned,
attempts to expand it will recurse forever, because m4 does not
special-case a macro that appears in its own expansion like cpp does.

AX_OPEN62541_PATH: set AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS
When configuring --with-open62541=<path>, the make distcheck target
often failed because the open62541 library was not found on the system.
So set the AM_DISTCHECK_CONFIGURE_FLAGS variable with the required
values (absolute paths in case the user defined relative paths).
2016-06-24 Olaf Mandel <olaf@mandel.name>
AX_OPEN62541_PATH: fix use of non-inst shared lib
If the open62541 library is not installed and the shared library is to
be used, the --with-open62541=<path> option to contigure setting
CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS is not enough: other checks by configure may
compile test binaries with the library linked in and then try to execute
then. The execution fails because of the not found shared library object
and gives a wrong test result. Likewise, some make targets (like check)
need to execute compiled binaries.
So modify AX_OPEN62541_PATH() so it exports LD_LIBRARY_PATH with the
absolute path of the build dir for the rest of the configure script to
use and define a Makefile variable OPEN62541_LDPATH, which contains
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:<abs_path_to_build>.

$(AM_V_at) and define a new $(valgrind_v_use) for the individual
check-valgrind-* calls. The $(valgrind_v_use) call writes:
USE $(patsubst check-valgrind-%,%,$@):

AX_VALGRIND_CHECK: fix logic around AC_CHECK_PROG
There are two problems in the logic around the first AC_CHECK_PROG()
call:
1. If AC_CHECK_PROG() fails to find valgrind, with neither configure
option --enable-valgrind nor --disable-valgrind, then the
enable_valgrind variable ends up being set incorrectly to yes.
2. If configure was started with --disable-valgrind, then there is no need
to run AC_CHECK_PROG() at all.
2016-03-03 Olaf Mandel <olaf@mandel.name>
AX_VALGRIND_CHECK: clean up configure message
When running configure, the displayed text contained two interleaved
messages. Got:
checking whether to enable Valgrind on the unit tests... checking for valgrind... valgrind
yes
instead of the probably intended:
checking whether to enable Valgrind on the unit tests... yes
checking for valgrind... valgrind
In addition, the first message seems to convey no additional information
compared to the second message: if valgrind is not found (and there is no
--enable-valgrind error), then the result of the check is "no" as
displayed for the executable check. And in all other cases, the result is
"yes". So remove the first message completely: this takes care of the
mangled status messages.

AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX: don't break "make CXXFLAGS=..."
Make C++ std-selection macros modify $(CXX), not $(CXXFLAGS).
Using $(CXXFLAGS) prevents users from being able to
rebuild with different CXXFLAGS (e.g.: to try out
different optimisations or to change debug levels)
unless they re-run ./configure with their CFLAGS.
This is more like what the mainline Autoconf macros do
(e.g.: AC_PROG_CC_C99, AC_PROG_CC_STD, etc. modify $(CC),
not $(CCFLAGS)), presmuably for much the same reasons:
if you need to specify a standard to the compiler,
it doesn't really make sense to separate that from
$(CC)/$(CXX) since $(CC)/$(CXX) aren't usable without it.

AX_CODE_COVERAGE: fix invalid chars in testname
There was a warning about invalid characters in the testname from
lcov: anything except letters, digits and the underscore causes
this. So replace such characters with underscores (lcov does this
anyway if we don't).
Needs to either call $(subst ) for each undesired character or
needs to execute a system command because GNU make does not
provide regular expressions. Chose here to implement characters
individually. Currently only strips dots and dashes, but these
should be the most common culprits.
2016-02-26 Olaf Mandel <olaf@mandel.name>
AX_CODE_COVERAGE: add BRANCH_COVERAGE variable
Add a new CODE_COVERAGE_BRANCH_COVERAGE variable that can be used
to provide --rc lcov_branch_coverage=[01] options to lcov and
--rc genhtml_branch_coverage=[01] options to genhtml. These may be
desirable to the user since the default for branch coverage changed
in some "recent" lcov version.
This is achieved by adding a LCOV_SHOPTS variable (for SHared
OPTionS) to the default LCOV_OPTIONS one. And the filtering call of
lcov gets a symmetric LCOV_RMOPTS variable (which is currently
empty).
In addition, ensure that all LCOV_{SHOPTS,OPTIONS,RMOPTS} and
GENHTML_OPTIONS have a corresponding _DEFAULT variable: this became
desirable here because of the new defaults for LCOV_SHOPTS and
GENHTML_OPTIONS; the LCOV_RMOPTS_DEFAULT is there only for
symmetry.

This adds three macros to the library:
AX_PROG_GJS - Check for the GJS JavaScript interpreter
AX_CHECK_GIRS_GJS - Check for importability of GObject introspection
module(s) in GJS
AX_CHECK_GIR_SYMBOLS_GJS - Check for the presence of particular symbols
in a GObject introspection module imported into GJS

Fix ax_boost_system for new versions of boost.
Newer version of boost::system have a breaking change that makes
the test on ax_boost_system fail even though the library is
present.
Changed the test to use another construct that did not change. Also
reseted the "CXX_FLAG" to an empty value in case of it having a
"-Werror" that also makes the test break.

Fix second pass bug in _AX_WITH_CURSES_CHECKEXTRA
Found bug where when _AX_WITH_CURSES_CHECKEXTRA is called a second time
on the same library, e.g. ncurses, the previous setting of
_AX_WITH_CURSES_CHECKEXTRA_cv_var to 'yes' would be changed to 'no' just
due to the tested header file not being available on the second pass.
This was found when AX_WITH_CURSES has 'with_ncurses' set to 'yes' and
'with_ncursesw' set to 'no' forcing _AX_WITH_CURSES_CHECKEXTRA to be
called twice in succession since ax_cv_curses_which is set to 'ncurses'
and the panel.h header file is tested as ncurses/panel.h and panel.h.
The system in question is OpenSuSE LEAP 42.1 which installs
/usr/include/ncurses/panel.h and not /usr/include/panel.h.

AX_BOOST_PYTHON: Update for the AX_PYTHON_DEVEL change.
Because AX_PYTHON_DEVEL now provides PYTHON_LIBS instead of PYTHON_FLAGS,
this script needs to be updated accordingly.
This lets AX_BOOST_PYTHON actually find the boost python library
on newer systems that ignore the -l flags if they appear before the
source file on the command line.
I'm not sure why I needed to add PYTHON_LIBS to LIBS in the AC_CACHE_CHECK()
line, though it apparently wasn't necessary to use PYTHON_LDFLAGS there
before. I suspect that much of this file doesn't really make sense.

AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS, AX_APPEND_LINK_FLAGS: Optional INPUT arg
Behaves exactly like the optional INPUT argument of
AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG, AX_CHECK_LINK_FLAG.
Motivation: I'd like to add -fstack-protector-strong. The obvious
solution is AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS([-fstack-protector-strong]).
Unfortunately, some ports of the GNU toolchain reportedly pass this
test, then fail to link. That's because the compiler accepts the
flag, duly emits references to helper code in libc (on my system:
___stack_chk_guard()), but libc doesn't provide, and linking fails.
The new argument lets me cover this failure mode:
AX_APPEND_LINK_FLAGS([-fstack-protector-strong], [], [],
[AC_LANG_SOURCE([[
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
char arr[64], *dst = arr, *src = argv[0];
while ((*dst++ = *src++)) ;
}
]])])

Unify macros for checking C++11/14/... compiler support.
* m4/ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4: New macro file added.
(AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX): New macro added. The code is based on
the former (serial version number 13) `AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11`
macro, generalized to check for arbitrary versions of the standard
selected via an additional argument.
(_AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_testbody_11): New internal macro added.
Defined in terms of `_AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_testbody_new_in_11`.
(_AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_testbody_14): New internal macro added.
Defined in terms of `_AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_testbody_new_in_11`
and `_AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_testbody_new_in_14`.
(_AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_testbody_new_in_11): New internal macro
added. Test code to check for features added in C++14. It is
based on the code previously found in the
`_AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11_testbody` macro, defined in
`m4/ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx_11.m4` but heavily refactored and
extended with additional checks.
(_AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_testbody_new_in_14): New internal macro
added. Test code to check for features added in C++14.
* m4/ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx_11.m4:
(AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11): Make this macro an alias for the new
`AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX` macro with the version set to C++11.
(_AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11_testbody): Internal macro deleted.
* m4/ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx_14.m4: New macro file added.
(AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_14): New macro added. This macro is an
alias for the new `AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX` macro with the version
set to C++14.
* m4/ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx_0x.m4 (AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_0X): Mark
macro as obsolete. The macro `AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11` should be
used instead. I couldn't test this macro on my system because it
uses a lot of obsolete macros my Autoconf complains about and
errors out.

Merge branch 'code-coverage' of https://github.com/olaf-mandel/autoconf-archive into olaf-mandel-code-coverage.
2015-11-23 Olaf Mandel <olaf@mandel.name>
AX_PROG_DOXYGEN: allow AC_CONFIG_FILES([Doxyfile])
To allow substitutions in the used Doxyfile, two changes are needed:
1. also substitute everything put in the environment (except DOCDIR)
2. allow Doxyfiles to also reside in the builddir
The latter change is a potentially breaking one! The old behaviour was
to always prefix $(srcdir)/ to the location provided as the second
(and forth, sixth, ...) parameter. This needs to be dropped to allow
for searching in the build directory. To compensate, the default now
is $(srcdir)/Doxyfile.
So the following still works:
DX_INIT_DOXYGEN([foo])
DX_INIT_DOXYGEN([foo], , [dest-dir])
While this needs to be changed:
DX_INIT_DOXYGEN([foo], [Doxyfile])
-> DX_INIT_DOXYGEN([foo], [$(srcdir)/Doxyfile])
2015-11-23 Olaf Mandel <olaf@mandel.name>
AX_PROG_DOXYGEN: support multiple Doxyfiles
Allow the DX_INIT_DOXYGEN() macro to take more than one Doxyfile
and/or output-directory argument. This may be of interest e.g. for
both public and internal documentation.
This keeps as much backwards-compatibility as possible: of the
preexisting variables, only DX_ENV is changed slightly (removed
DOCDIR).
2015-11-23 Olaf Mandel <olaf@mandel.name>
AX_PROG_DOXYGEN: fix doxygen-ps rule
In the rule for $(PACKAGE).ps depended on by doxygen-ps the
undefined variable MAKEINDEX_PATH was used instead of the correct
variable DX_MAKEINDEX. Fixed.
AX_PROG_DOXYGEN: add support for silent rules
Any warnings of Doxygen are much easier to see if there are not
several lines of commands interspersed.
2015-11-23 Olaf Mandel <olaf@mandel.name>
AX_PROG_DOXYGEN: provide a DX_RULES substitution
Convert the previously provided aminclude.am snippet in the
documentation into a AC_SUBST substitution. This allows for easy
upgrades to the DX_INIT_DOXYGEN macro without the user having to
manually update the corresponding section of their Makefile.am.
As autoconf substitutions are not recursive, also convert all
@DX_DOCDIR@ and @PACKAGE@ substitutions in the snippet to using
variables. And as AM_CONDITIONAL also relies on substitution,
remove all AM_CONDITIONAL calls and instead use a separate
variable for each of the sections previously enclosed in an if-block.
2015-11-23 Emil Mikulic <emikulic@gmail.com>
Add 1.12 to list of lcov versions.
This version is in Debian now and seems to work fine with the existing macros.
2015-10-13 Olaf Mandel <olaf@mandel.name>
AX_CODE_COVERAGE: add CPPFLAGS to skip assertions
The assert() statement is a very helpful tool for quality assurance
in nearly every kind of software project. But during code coverage
it unnecessarily decreases the branch coverage percentage as
assertions should never fail. This is probably not what the user
expects as the branch contained inside the assert() statement is not
visible in the code.
So in a workflow where first the "check" target is run to see if any
test fails (e.g. because of a failing assertion) and then the code
coverage is consulted to see how much of the code was exercised, the
assertions should not be counted.
Implement this by adding a variable CODE_COVERAGE_CPPFLAGS which is
defined to -DNDEBUG if CODE_COVERAGE_ENABLED.
2015-10-10 Olaf Mandel <olaf@mandel.name>
AX_CODE_COVERAGE: further silence rules for V=0
Expand on the pre-existing code_coverage_quiet variables that add
the --quiet option to lcov and genhtml calls if V=0. This way, any
warnings are much more visible.
Completely silence builds for V=0:
* hide the two "outer" make invokations of check-code-coverage
* display short replacement texts for the three commands inside of
code-coverage-capture

Push C language before testing HDF5 libraries.

2015-09-25 Murray Cumming <murrayc@murrayc.com>
AX_PYTHON_DEVEL: provide PYTHON_LIBS, not PYTHON_LDFLAGS
Because -L and -l are LIBS arguments, not LDFLAGS arguments.
Calling it PYTHON_LDFLAGS suggested wrongly that they should be
used in LDFLAGS, which can cause the -L and -l arguments to
be ignored when they are not in the expected position in the list
of command line arguments. This is a problem, for instance,
with the command line generated by AC_LINK_IFELSE.

ax_compiler_flags: Eliminate ‘minimum’ and ‘maximum’ warning levels
These went against the whole concept of providing a baseline set of
warnings which is set by the module maintainer, since it allowed
individual developers to opt out of certain classes of warning.
Remove them, leaving the ‘no’, ‘yes’ and ‘error’ levels. This maintains
API compatibility of the macros by marking various EXTRA-* variables as
unused, but still handling them, and merging their values with the
preceding EXTRA-* variables. For example, all extra ‘maximum’ and
‘error’ flags are now included in the ‘yes’ level of warnings.

2015-02-23 Philip Withnall <philip.withnall@collabora.co.uk>
ax_compiler_flags: Automate addition of -Wno-error=* flags
We need to add a -Wno-error=* flag for each -Wno-* flag as some
compilers will re-enable the warning as an error if -Wall is passed in
the user’s CFLAGS after we’ve specific -Werror.
Previously this was done manually for the -Wno-* flags in
AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_CFLAGS and AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_CXXFLAGS. However, this
ignored the cases where the user was passing -Wno-* flags as extra-flags
to the macros.
Factor this out and automate it so -Wno-error=* flags will be tested and
appended for any -Wno-* flag specified by the user in extra-flags.
2015-02-23 Philip Withnall <philip.withnall@collabora.co.uk>
ax_compiler_flags_cflags: Remove -Waggregate-return
Historically, this flag has been used because certain old C compilers
didn’t support it — that’s not really relevant any more. It was also
used to warn the developer about the potential for overflowing the
stack. However, I believe the benefits of being able to pass small
structures (e.g. a GdkRectangle) by value outweights the likelihood of
putting a huge structure on the stack and overflowing it.
Within GNOME, a coding standard exists to not return aggregates by value
because it is hard to generate introspected bindings for such code.
g-ir-scanner should warn about this instead.

ax_compiler_flags: Only check for C++ if AC_PROG_CXX is called
The previous behavior of the macro was to use a C compiler, but when C++
support was added, it created an unconditional dependency on a C++
compiler. This is undesirable for most C projects, and slows down
configure considerably by adding unnecessary checks.
Add an internal _AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_LANG macro, with the desired language
as the first argument. Only require the macro for the corresponding
compiler warning flags if AC_PROG_lang has been called. Enable C support
by default.

AX_APPEND_FLAG: fix regression
AX_APPEND_FLAG has changed behaviour compared to earlier versions: it
adds the FLAG also when the variable contains FLAG. I traced down the
altered behaviour to the two lines
[case " AS_VAR_GET(FLAGS) " in
*" $1 "*)
which have changed to
AS_CASE([AS_VAR_GET(FLAGS)],
["* $1 *|*$1"]
besides that AS_CASE is used (which is good imho) the pattern has
changed and the space around FLAGS in the first argument of AS_CASE has
gone. This means that e.g. if FLAGS is "alpha beta gamma" that will not
match the pattern "* $1 *|*$1" for $1 being any of 'alpha', 'beta', or
'gamma'. I think that is unexpected behaviour.
This patch restores the original semantics.

ax_compiler_flags: Disable specific flags as errors as well as warnings
See the new comments for details. Disable specific flags (which were
already disabled) as errors as well as warnings, to prevent -Wall from a
build bot effectively re-enabling them as errors.
Based on
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/telepathy/telepathy-glib/tree/m4/tp-compiler-warnings.m4#n22.
Thanks to Simon McVittie.

ax_compiler_flags: Adapt for AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_CXXFLAGS
Use the new AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_CXXFLAGS macro in AX_COMPILER_FLAGS to
test for available C++ compiler warning options, and AC_SUBST them as
WARN_CXXFLAGS. Pass the EXTRA-*-CFLAGS variables to
AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_CXXFLAGS, to avoid an explosion of arguments, and as
most C++ warnings are also valid C warnings.

ax_compiler_flags_cxxflags: Add new macro for C++ compiler warnings
Add a new AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_CXXFLAGS macro, which acts similarly to
AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_CFLAGS, but for the C++ compiler.
Modify the default set of warnings slightly, to remove
-Waggregate-return, because using it makes it difficult to write
idiomatic C++ code. Add -Wno-overloaded-virtual as a C++-specific
warning. Remove C-specific warnings such as -Wnested-externs,
-Wmissing-prototypes, -Wstrict-prototypes,
-Wdeclaration-after-statement, -Wold-style-definition and
-Wimplicit-function-declaration.

ax_is_release: Add AX_IS_RELEASE to check for compiling release tarballs
This is a macro providing various different policies for determining

settings, such as whether debug is enabled, to be disabled for stable
releases.
A typical example of a policy is to enable stable releases when the .git
directory is not present.

ax_lua.m4: add precautionary casts to number
Based on a patch from David Favro
2015-01-30 John Peterson <jwpeterson@gmail.com>
Test that we can actually #include <omp.h> successfully, not just prototype an OpenMP function.
This original version of this configure test actually passes on Apple
LLVM version 6.0 (clang-600.0.51) (based on LLVM 3.5svn), which
doesn't support OpenMP but also doesn't barf when passed -fopenmp.
This can lead to a false positive in codes which need to include the
omp.h header. The new version of the test addresses this issue.

ax_compiler_flags_gir: Add a compiler flags macro for g-ir-scanner
g-ir-scanner is a tool used within a lot of GNOME projects to generate

--enable-compile-warnings would be useful.

enabled by default.

ax_compiler_flags: Split out into separate macros per tool
Unfortunately, the API for AX_COMPILER_FLAGS does not scale for more
than two tools, due to the number of parameters required.
Without breaking API, split AX_COMPILER_FLAGS out into:
• AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_CFLAGS
• AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_LDFLAGS
and use both of these in the implementation of AX_COMPILER_FLAGS.
This means that support for a new tool can be implemented as a separate
macro, and used inside AX_COMPILER_FLAGS if deemed necessary, without
necessarily needing to add new EXTRA-* parameters for it — if people
want to add extra parameters for the tool, they can invoke
AX_COMPILER_FLAGS_* manually.

ax_compiler_flags: Document approach for locally disabling warnings

AX_PKG_CHECK_MODULES: Add ACTION-IF-[NOT-]FOUND arguments
So that AX_PKG_CHECK_MODULES can be used in every situation which
PKG_CHECK_MODULES is currently used in. The new arguments have been
inserted part-way through the argument list, so this breaks API for

AX_VALGRIND_CHECK: Refactor a little to ensure log files are cleaned
Add the log files to MOSTLYCLEANFILES and take the opportunity to
refactor the code a little to reduce duplication for different Valgrind
tools.
Note that the valgrind_*_flags variables are necessary because the
sgcheck tool has an odd --tool=exp-sgcheck argument, rather than
--tool=sgcheck. This is because it is experimental. I want the
autoconf macro to consistently refer to it as sgcheck so that nothing
changes when it becomes non-experimental.

AX_LIB_HDF5: remove extra space from include path flag
The code parsing the output of h5cc for the "Installation point:" results in an

path flag into two tokens, e.g., "-I" and "/usr/include". While this may be
legal and doesn't affect the compilation, it does break some library
tools (e.g., when the macro is used in building a dynamic library that uses
pkg-config).

Bug fix and improvements to ax_f90_library.m4.
1) The message uses a lower case "f" for the word fortran. However
most other autoconf macros use "F".
2) The search path prepends $prefix, yet does not check to see
if this "NONE" (the default). When it is NONE, the find command
complains (as a directory called NONE normally does not exist).
3) Removed a white space between the "-L" and the directory for
the LDFLAGS search path.
4) The "action-found" and "action-not-found" logic was incorrect.
The default test is for not found, which would execute the users
supplied found action. Swapped these around.

AX_HAVE_QT: auto-detect Qt 5 by querying $PATH and qmake
The old logic for detecting Qt did not work for newer versions of Qt,
nor did it work on newer Debian/Ubuntu because of multiarch. I've
replaced the old hacks and heuristics with clean code that uses a Qt 5
pro file to detect Qt's parameters from $PATH and qmake. Qt 4 and
earlier do not support this kind of introspection, but any version of
Qt can still be used by explicitly specifying its parameters.

AX_EXECINFO: new macro to test execinfo size type
<execinfo.h> has been available on a number of systems now, but unfortunately
different systems use different types to represent the size of the backtrace,
with netBSD and FreeBSD using size_t and Linux, Mac OS X. To build calls that
work with both implementations without warning, this macro not only checks if
the execinfo header is available but also what type is used for the len
argument of backtrace_symbols and the return value of backtrace.
All in all this macro defines
HAVE_EXECINFO_H if execinfo.h can be included,
backtrace_size_t to the len argument type, i.e. int or size_t,
HAVE_BACKTRACE to 1 if the function can be linked to,
and append any library needed to LIBS (e.g. some BSD's need -lexecinfo).

AX_PYTHON_DEVEL: add SYSLIBs to PYTHON_EXTRA_LIBS
This patch is needed when the python library has been built statically. The
math symbols like sin, cos, etc are left undefined in the .a file so we must
inform the user of the library to link against libm, whose linker
argument (-lm) is defined under SYSLIBS.
Further details are at <https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?8309>.

AX_BOOST_BASE: additional fix lib detection on multi-arch systems
On 32-bit platforms, ${host_cpu} corresponds to a specific cpu, such as
i386, i486, i586, i686, while Ubuntu 13.10 assumes that for all 32-bit
platforms libraries are located in lib/i386-gnu-linux folder.
2014-02-07 Leo Davis <ldavis@speechfxinc.com>
M4sugar and M4sh added to AX_PROG_JAR, AX_PROG_JAVA, AX_PROG_JAVAC, and AX_PROG_JAVADOC. Also fixed a path discrepancy with AX_JAVA_OPTIONS.
The discrepancy is AX_JAVA_OPTIONS sets up a variable JAVAPREFIX
which is described to the user as the "prefix where the Java runtime
is installed". Unfortunately, that directory doesn't contain any
executables, but $JAVAPREFIX/bin does.
This incorrect path was passed in the value-if-not-found parameter
of AC_CHECK_PROGS which is incorrect. I fixed the path and pass it
in to the path parameter.
2014-02-07 Leo Davis <ldavis@speechfxinc.com>
Added M4sh to AX_PROG_JAVAH.
Removed the changequote also.

AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED: new helper for requiring macros exist
In cases where we want to require that a macro exists, but not call it,
introduce a new AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED helper. The existing AC_REQUIRE macro
will call its argument and does not allow for passing of additional args
to the macro.
Once we have this in place, cut a few callers over to it to fix bugs where
they'd accidentally call other helpers w/out any flags.

AX_EXT: determine if the OS actually supports AVX
AX_EXT checks for different SIMD variants on a CPU. It checks for AVX, but
doesn't go far enough to actually be useful in some cases. It is possible to be
on a CPU with AVX support and the OS doesn't support it. We should be checking
that such support exists. This is via an additional check of cpuinfo's ECX
register bit 27. Then one needs to call xgetbv and if EAX&0b110 = 0b110 then
AVX is supported by the CPU and OS.
Further details are at <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?8084>.

- Added variables HDF5_CC and HDF5_FC that one could use to override CC and FC.
- Added the variable HDF5_LIBS.

true to "test -x" if it is searchable.
- Tried to combine all the tests to get CFLAGS, LDFLAGS etc to be more robust.

AX_ZONEINFO: improve portability
This patch improves portability of ax_zoneinfo.m4 shell code. Backticks

Do not use AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM in ax_prog_c{c,xx}_for_build.m4
AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM requires AC_CANONICAL_TARGET which is bad

2013-03-29 Roy Stogner <roystgnr@ices.utexas.edu>
AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11: test code now includes the "auto" keyword
Furthermore, the macro now uses AC_LANG_PUSH/POP rather than AC_LANG_ASSERT,
which makes it more robust to use.
An optional second argument makes it possible to test for C++11 and return the
result with an AC_DEFINE/AC_SUBST/AM_CONDITIONAL without erroring out if
support is not found.
This new version should be nearly backwards-compatible with the old; the
obvious exception being when compilers which implement a subset of C++11 not
including "auto" are used with codes for which that subset would have been
sufficient.

AX_OPENMP: fix Mac OS X support
The macro was failing to detect the OpenMP flags for g++ on Mac OS 10.7 because

"_gomp_thread_attr", referenced from:
_initialize_env in libgomp.a(env.o)
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
As explained at [1], without resorting to a non-portable hack, the test program
needs to actually use an OMP pragma.

AX_PROG_CXX_FOR_BUILD: Initial version

2013-01-04 Thierry Reding <thierry.reding@avionic-design.de>
Unbreak AX_PROG_CC_FOR_BUILD
Instead of pushing the cross_compiling and ac_tool_prefix definitions,
override them by assignment. Pushing the definition will cause the
variable names to be replaced instead of the content.
While at it, remove the AC_TRY_COMPILER redefinition as it was removed
in autoconf 2.50. Also push LDFLAGS to prevent flags specific to the
host tools from leaking into the build tools. Furthermore, consistently
pop definitions in the reverse order than they were pushed.

ax_lua.m4: major update
AX_LUA_VERSION is removed (use AX_PROG_LUA instead)
AX_PROG_LUA now takes version numbers in the form output by the Lua
interpreter, and uses AX_COMPARE_VERSION (AX_LUA_HEADERS_VERSION
continues to take the form used in the headers).
Use just one style of testing empty strings consistently.
Put the macros in the source in the same order as in the

Use 'ls -r' in order to try newer version before older ones. Simplify ls pattern so also dylibs are detected.
Use 'ls -r' rather than non-portable tool 'tac'. Simplify filepattern in ls expression so dylib (on OSX) are also detected.

AX_BLAS: improve the detection of the Intel Math Kernel Library (MKL)
New versions of the MKL cannot be linked with "-lmkl -lguide -lpthread", but
instead require variations on "-lmkl_intel_lp64 -lmkl_sequential -lmkl_core
-lpthread",depending on architecture, compiler & other variables. See
<http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-mkl-link-line-advisor/>.
The present patch detects the architecture (x86_64 or i686) and compiler
(gfortran or others), but not the interface layer (assumes lp64 for x86_64),
threading (assumes sequential), static vs. dynamic (assumes dynamic), etc.
Tested on a number of different systems using gfortran and ifort.
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7807> for further details.

AX_CHECK_CLASS did not use the `uudecode' found by AX_PROG_JAVA_WORKS.
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7835> for further details.
AX_PROG_JAVA_WORKS would never find a 'uudecode' that could decode base64, even if one was on the path.
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7835> for further details.
AX_PROG_JAVA had old macro name documentation.
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7835> for further details.
AX_TRY_RUN_JAVA had old macro name documentation and was missing an AU_ALIAS. I renamed the .m4 file to match the documented macro name.
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7835> for further details.
AX_INCLUDE_STRCASECMP: initial version
The macro detects which header file defines the strcasecmp() function.
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7836> for further details.
2012-09-07 Peter Simons <simons@cryp.to>
AX_LIB_ORACLE_OCCI: initial version
The macro detects the availability of the Oracle OCCI API of particular version
or newer. Further details can be found at <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7834>.
AX_CHECK_POSTGRES_DB: version bump and cosmetic
2012-09-07 Olivier Mehani <olivier.mehani@nicta.com.au>
Add -Idir to CPPFLAGS rather than CFLAGS
2012-09-07 Olivier Mehani <olivier.mehani@nicta.com.au>
Substantial rewrite of AX_CHECK_POSTGRES_DB.
It still behaves the same by default, AC_DEFINing HAVE_LIBPQ and setting
variables PQINCPATH and PQLIBPATH, while erroring when either header or
library is found in the default or specified paths.
The logic is however different, where the specified prefixes and/or
incdir and libdir are temporarily added to CFLAGS and LDFLAGS. The
normal detection logic (AC_CHECK_HEADER and AC_CHECK_LIB) is used next,
only, and once.
In addition, two optional arguments to the macro, ACTION-IF-FOUND and
ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND are now available to extend the logic. The default
ACTION-IF-FOUND is to do nothing (apart from defining the variables and
substitutions, which is always done). The default ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is
to error out; it is replaced by the ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND if specified
to, e.g., gracefully remove configure PGSQL out when it's only optional.
Bump serial from 5 to 6.
2012-09-07 Olivier Mehani <olivier.mehani@nicta.com.au>

AX_CXX_RVALUE_REFERENCES: initial version
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7833> for further details.
2012-09-07 Peter Simons <simons@cryp.to>
AX_BLAS: add support for the (free-software, BSD-licensed) OpenBLAS library, a descendant of GotoBLAS (http://xianyi.github.com/OpenBLAS/).
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7828> for further details.
2012-07-31 Peter Johansson <trojkan@gmail.com>
AX_CHECK_ZLIB: Fix typo. Assign LDFLAGS correctly in action-if-found.
2012-07-22 John Stumpo <stump@jstump.com>
AX_CC_MAXOPT: use $enableval, not $withval, in AC_ARG_ENABLE call
2012-07-22 Diego Elio Pettenò <flameeyes@flameeyes.eu>
AX_BOOST_SYSTEM, AX_BOOST_FILESYSTEM: inverse the order of search for libraries
With the original macros, the oldest versioned library is used, but
for most distribution this is detrimental, as the old versions are
kept for compatibility, and not to be linked against. By using tac we
reverse the order of the libraries, preferring an unversioned one
(usually the latest available on the system), and then proceeding in
descending order.
Together with this, also try to simplify the sed syntax. It's of note
that even though tac might not be very portable, the sed syntax used
is also not so portable, so it might be worth working this around in a
different way.
2012-07-22 Sebastian Freundt <freundt@fresse.org>
AX_ZONEINFO: find compiled zoneinfo files
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/index.php?7814> for further details.
2012-07-22 Peter Johansson <trojkan@gmail.com>
AX_CHECK_ZLIB: cosmetic indentation fix
Adding some quoting and replacing "test x -a y" with more portable
"test x && test y".
AX_CHECK_ZLIB: change the behavior so macro proceeds to compile and link tests even if zlib.h was not found in the "usual locations". If end-user has provided CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS as needed for compilation/linking to succeed, there is no reason to error out.
AX_CHECK_ZLIB: fix help output so it is inline with other macros that uses AS_HELP_STRING.
AX_CHECK_ZLIB: extend the interface to the typical ([action-if-found], [action-if-not-found])-style, so user can define how macro should behave when macro is successful or failed. If not provided the macro will behave as previously. I also clarified in DESCRIPTION what this behaviour is.
AX_CHECK_ZLIB: the current version only looks for zlib if --with-zlib was provided [by user]. This patch changes that so the search and test are also performed in default mode.
2012-06-18 Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
AC_REQUIRE AX_APPEND_FLAG when appropriate.
A bunch of m4 files use AX_APPEND_FLAG, but don't AC_REQUIRE, which
can lead to runtime errors instead of compile time errors when the
macro is missing.
2012-06-16 Gabriele Svelto <gabriele.svelto@gmail.com>
Replace the obsolete AC_FD_CC macro with AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD.
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7793> for further details.

2012-04-04 Zack Weinberg <zackw@panix.com>
AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11: new submission
This is a revised version of AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_0X. The major changes
are:
- Automatically sets CXXFLAGS to enable support for C++11, and errors out if
no C++11 mode can be found. (Note: currently only supports GCC-style -std=
switches.) Does not define any preprocessor macros.
- Support for other compilers' mode switches will be much easier to add.
- Can be instructed to avoid using C++11-with-extensions compilation modes, or
C++11-without-extensions modes, as appropriate.
- Autoupdate clean.
- Better AC_MSG_CHECKING messages.
- Consistently refers to C++11 rather than C++0x.
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7734> for further details.
2012-04-04 Zack Weinberg <zackw@panix.com>

AX_CHECK_LIBRARY: do not use m4_ifnblank
m4_ifnblank requires autoconf 2.64, and doesn’t seem necessary here.
2012-04-04 Markus Elfring <Markus.Elfring@web.de>
AX_PTHREAD: deletion of unreferenced variable "host_cpu"
The CPU did not play a role in the current setting adjustments by this script.
The variable "host_cpu" was therefore deleted and the corresponding pattern
selection was a bit simplified.

2011-12-02 Stephan Sürken <absurd@olurdix.de>
AX_BERKELEY_DB_CXX: Add 'AC_LANG_ASSERT(C++)' (as suggested by Amir Taaki, thanks!).
This will basically improve the error reporting when the macro is called
without LANG=C++; is also suggested in autoconf documentation (see:

AX_DEFINE_DIR: cosmetic changes to wrap-wrapping
2011-09-16 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
AX_DEFINE_DIR: Obsolete: it doesn't comply with the GCS.
2011-09-06 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
AX_FUNC_FORK: Not actually useful. Use AX_CHECK_FUNC(fork) instead.
AX_SNPRINTF_OFLOW: Make obsolete, in favour of gnulib's snprintf module.
2011-09-05 Aaron Griffith <aargri@gmail.com>
AX_PROG_DOXYGEN: cleaned up use of AM_CONDITIONAL
Previously, calls to AM_CONDITIONAL were inside shell flow control
structures. The automake manual notes that running AM_CONDITIONAL
conditionally will confuse automake. In this case, later use of the
AM_COND_IF to check if Doxygen was found would result in the
conditional appearing to be false, even if it's not.

AX_PTHREAD: fixed mis-placed brackets
2011-08-01 Chun-Chung Chen <cjj@u.washington.edu>
AX_LIB_HDF5: HAVE_HDF5 was defined even when the library is not detected
The following codes are executed unless --without-hdf5 is used, even
when the HDF5 library is not installed or detected:
AC_SUBST([HDF5_VERSION])
AC_SUBST([HDF5_CFLAGS])
AC_SUBST([HDF5_CPPFLAGS])
AC_SUBST([HDF5_LDFLAGS])
AC_SUBST([HDF5_FFLAGS])
AC_SUBST([HDF5_FLIBS])
AC_DEFINE([HAVE_HDF5], [1], [Defined if you have HDF5 support])
To remedy the situation, these have been moved into the conditional
block where HDF5 is actually detected.
2011-08-01 Chun-Chung Chen <cjj@u.washington.edu>
AX_PTHREAD: fixed Autoconf warnings about underquoted arguments
2011-07-30 Peter Simons <simons@cryp.to>
AX_GCC_INSTALL_DIR, AX_GCC_LIBRARIES_DIR, AX_GCC_VERSION, and AX_GXX_VERSION are non-functional and have been marked obsolete, because they depend on the obsolete AX_GCC_OPTION macro, which has been removed from the archive.
2011-07-28 John Zaitseff <J.Zaitseff@zap.org.au>
AX_WITH_CURSES: major re-write
I re-wrote the AX_WITH_CURSES macro, and added the macros AX_WITH_CURSES_PANEL,
AX_WITH_CURSES_MENU, and AX_WITH_CURSES_FORM for the following reasons:
- The checks are far more rigorous and now work with many more systems. In
particular, Debian Sid, Debian 6.0 (Squeeze), Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty), Ubuntu
10.04 (Lucid), Fedora 15, FreeBSD 8.2 and Cygwin have all been confirmed as
working.
- The old version required Ncurses to be present even when linking with
NcursesW. This has been fixed.
- Multiple header filenames are checked for each library as these seem to be
different in every system. The old version did not do these checks and hence
failed on many systems (eg, FreeBSD and Cygwin).
- A number of feature checks have been added: X/Open Enhanced functionality
checks, colour function checks, obsolete function checks, etc.
- The additional macros check for auxiliary libraries associated with Curses:
Panel, Menu and Form, again with checks against NcursesW, Ncurses and plain
Curses.
- Extensive documentation has been added, particularly useful for the beginner
(ie, exactly what needs to be put where for a working Curses check).

ax_cflags_*: Use AX_APPEND_FLAG macro
Use one implementation for C/C++ in ax_cflags_*.m4
AX_COMPILER_VENDOR: Make the list of vendors and corresponding symbols clearer
Also deprecate the macros AX_CHECK_SUNPRO_C and AX_LANG_COMPILER_MS in favor
of the more generic AX_COMPILER_VENDOR.
ax_append_flag: Split file into one macro per file
2011-06-30 Nick Bowler <nbowler@elliptictech.com>
ax_check_openssl: Fix underquoted macro arguments.
Several of the macros used in AX_CHECK_OPENSSL have underquoted
arguments. In particular, autoconf complains loudly about the
unquoted AC_LANG_PROGRAM argument to AC_LINK_IFELSE:
configure.ac:10: warning: AC_LANG_CONFTEST: no AC_LANG_SOURCE call detected in body
../../lib/autoconf/lang.m4:194: AC_LANG_CONFTEST is expanded from...
../../lib/autoconf/general.m4:2662: _AC_LINK_IFELSE is expanded from...
../../lib/autoconf/general.m4:2679: AC_LINK_IFELSE is expanded from...
m4/ax_check_openssl.m4:38: AX_CHECK_OPENSSL is expanded from...
configure.ac:10: the top level
Fix that up, and fix up the others while we're at it.
2011-06-28 Anders Kaseorg <andersk@mit.edu>
AX_CHECK_FLAG: Fix to work with autoconf 2.59
• AS_VAR_PUSHDEF([FLAGS], [something containing FLAGS]) caused an
infinite loop before v2.65~21.
• AS_VAR_APPEND was new in v2.63b~224.
• AS_VAR_IF was new in v2.63~27.
• AS_ECHO was new in AUTOCONF-2.61a~45, and AC_PROG_GREP in
AUTOCONF-2.59c~744, but their use here is more idiomatically
replaced with a case pattern anyway.
• Before AUTOCONF-2.60b~8, the variable name passed to AC_CACHE_CHECK,
AS_VAR_GET, AS_VAR_SET, and AS_VAR_SET_IF must be left unquoted.
2011-06-25 Peter Simons <simons@cryp.to>
AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION: deprecated in favor of AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG
Added a proper 'obsolete' section to AX_C_CHECK_FLAG, AX_CHECK_LINKER_FLAGS, AX_CPP_CHECK_FLAG, AX_CXX_CHECK_FLAG, AX_CXXCPP_CHECK_FLAG, and AX_LD_CHECK_FLAG.
Bumped serial numbers of AX_CFLAGS_*_OPTION, AX_CHECK_{COMPILER,LINKER}_FLAGS, and edited the formatting of the documentation for consistency. Also documented the recent changes in the NEWS file.
2011-06-25 Maarten Bosmans <mkbosmans@gmail.com>
Implement AX_*_CHECK_FLAG on top of ax_check_flag.m4 macros
The PROLOGUE and BODY arguments were almost never used, so there's no need to
keep them. Just emit a warning if they are nonempty.
Implement AX_CHECK_*_FLAGS on top of ax_check_flag.m4 macros
The implementation takes care to empty the CFLAGS, to mimic previous behaviour,
but the new behaviour of AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG should be better for most situations.
ax_cflags_*_option.m4: Use AX_APPEND_FLAG macro to append the flag
ax_cflags_*_option.m4: Use AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG macro to do most of the work
This gets rid of the for loop and the string splitting using sed. For
gcc_option the logic is now contained in a much easier to follow if statement.
Add ax_check_flag.m4
ax_cflags_*_option.m4: Consolidate CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS macros
Combine duplicate AX_CFLAGS_ and AX_CXXFLAGS_ macros into one AX_FLAGS macro and
change language in the language_specific macro.
ax_cflags_*_option.m4: Consolidate _OLD and _NEW macros
Combine duplicate _OLD and _NEW macros into one _PRIVATE macro and switch
arguments in the main macro.

AX_CHECK_MYSQL: new submission
I am submitting an Autoconf Macro I've been developing for the past
couple months - ax_check_mysql.m4. I'm aware that multiple other MySQL
macros exist, but mine is specifically geared toward MySQL plugin
development and installation. Specifically:
- Automatically Detects binary, include, and plugin directories for most
typical MySQL installations.
- Provides methods for one to designate the directories manually, or point to
a root directory containing a MySQL installation.
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7553> for further details.

AX_CHECK_DEFINE: various bug fixes
- Change macro names to CHECK_DEFINE and alias the old name CHECK_DEFINED.
This makes the names in sync with the help comments on top.
- Update obsolete AC_TRY_COMPILE to AC_COMPILE_IFELSE.
- Include header name in cache value and in output message.
- Switch #ifndef to #ifdef. That macro could not have worked previously.

Add missing letter in comment.
2011-03-17 Peter Simons <simons@cryp.to>
AX_PATH_GENERIC has been extended to allow setting LIBRARY_LIBS and LIBRARY_CFLAGS variables on configure command line or in the environment to override the normal values returned by `library-config --libs` and `--cflags` respectively. See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7490> for further details.
AX_LIB_EXPAT: store found library in EXPAT_LIBS instead if EXPAT_LDFLAGS
This change is necessary to avoid build failures when linking with --as-needed.
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7489> for further details.
AX_WITH_PROG, AX_WITH_CURSES: synchronize serial numbers with Git
AX_WITH_PROG, AX_WITH_CURSES: pseudo-bump #serial number
These macros have serial numbers greater than the number of commits that
modified them. Since we cannot decrease serial numbers once they've been
assigned, the macros need two (effectively empty) commits to synchronize
their serial number with Git.

AX_PKG_SWIG: fix the configure check so it can find swig 2 as swig2.0
Ubuntu Maverick and Ubuntu Natty install swig 2 as /usr/bin/swig2.0
because they do not yet want to upgrade their normal swig package. This
lets our macro find that too.
2011-03-13 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
Use && not -a in tests.
Quote first argument of AC_DEFINE.

AX_LUA: normalize formatting of the documentation
2011-02-26 Reuben Thomas <rrt@sc3d.org>
Add AX_PROG_LUA macro, and improve behaviour of single version number given to mean “exactly this version” rather than “this verison or greater”.
Add Lua 5.2 support (trivial!).
Remove --with-lua-prefix (use CPPFLAGS &c. instead).
2011-02-06 Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
AX_CREATE_PKGCONFIG_INFO: don't add user CPPFLAGS/LDFLAGS to pc files
CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS are settings that come from the user. These
should not be placed into .pc files. Since this helper already
provides variables for getting cflags/ldflags into the .pc file,
just punt the user sourcing.

2010-11-11 Rhys Ulerich <rhys.ulerich@gmail.com>
Move AX_CXX_{CPP,CXX,LD}FLAGS_STD_LANG to AX_COMPILER_VENDOR
Nested quoting within AX_CXX_COMPILER_VENDOR gives warnings on
newer autoconf versions. Switching which compiler-detection
script these macros use.
Implementation changeover simple-- just need to account for a
difference in 'dec' vs 'compaq' compiler identifier.

ax_lib_hdf5: improve {C,CPP,LD,F}FLAGS + Fortran
Newer compiler wrapper versions stop providing as
much useful information. After attempting to pull
everything from them, we now look for -L/-I information
in the compiler wrapper's -show output.
This greatly improves HDF5_FFLAGS. Also, added HDF5_FLIBS
to capture the Fortran-specific link line details.

build: m4-quote use of AC_LANG_PROGRAM to avoid warning from new autoconf
Using autoconf-2.68 would evoke many new warnings like this:
configure.ac:78: warning: AC_LANG_CONFTEST: no AC_LANG_SOURCE call detected in body
../../lib/autoconf/lang.m4:194: AC_LANG_CONFTEST is expanded from...
../../lib/autoconf/general.m4:2591: _AC_COMPILE_IFELSE is expanded from...

../../lib/autoconf/general.m4:2053: AC_CACHE_CHECK is expanded from...
ax/ax_boost_thread.m4:35: AX_BOOST_THREAD is expanded from...
configure.ac:78: the top level
Autoconf was unable to detect the existing use of AC_LANG_SOURCE
because it was underquoted. Fix that.

2010-09-17 Harald van Dijk <truedfx@gentoo.org>
AX_PREFIX_CONFIG_H: added support for system shell "dash"
The AX_PREFIX_CONFIG_H macro doesn't work with dash, the bug is already
noted in the source file. As of autoconf 2.62, AS_ECHO can be used to
print strings that may contain backslashes or look like options. This
patch updates AX_PREFIX_CONFIG_H to use it.
The comment in the source file refers to $ECHO from libtool, but this
requires libtool.m4 which is not part of autoconf, and AS_ECHO is. On
the other hand, libtool.m4 (at least the one on my system) only requires
autoconf 2.58 or higher, so depending on how much you value
compatibility with older autoconf versions, that may be a better choice.
See <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?7317> for further details.

2010-08-26 Peter Simons <simons@cryp.to>
AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION: use AS_VAR_COPY() if available, but don't require it
Peter Kjellerstedt noticed a problem when using the updated macro with an older
version of autoconf (e.g. 2.61 as used by debian). AS_VAR_COPY() seems to be a
relatively new addition to the API, and did not exist in 2.61.
2010-08-25 Peter Simons <simons@cryp.to>
AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION: bumped serial number
2010-08-25 Peter Kjellerstedt <pkj@axis.com>
AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION: Use an actually existing gcc option as example
2010-08-25 Peter Kjellerstedt <pkj@axis.com>
AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION: Correct handling of indirectly named sh vars
With autoconf 2.67 a use of AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION() like this
AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION([-fvisibility=hidden], AM_CFLAGS)
with an option containing a non-literal character like = suddenly
breaks. This was due to directly accessing variables defined with
AS_VAR_PUSHDEF(), rather than using AS_VAR_SET() and AS_VAR_COPY().

The boost macros for iostreams, regex, serialization, signals, system, test_exec_monitor, unit_test_framework, wave, and wserialization have been patched not to rely on being executed by a 'bash' shell.
2010-06-15 Philip Allison <philip.allison@smoothwall.net>
AX_PTHREAD: fix compiler warning in AC_TRY_LINK test program
The test program generated by AX_PTHREAD's AC_TRY_LINK invocation generates a
compiler warning (on Linux, using GCC 4). When building with "-Wall -Werror" in
CFLAGS, as done during development to catch unexpected warnings, this turns
into a compiler error; hence, all of the AC_TRY_LINK invocations fail, and the
macro fails to detect any suitable compiler/linker flags for pthreads usage.
A sample from config.log showing the error follows.
configure:16038: result: no
configure:15936: checking whether pthreads work without any flags
configure:16029: gcc -o conftest -O3 -g -Wall -Werror -pipe -fvisibility=hidden -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed conftest.c >&5
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
conftest.c: In function 'main':
conftest.c:31: error: 'th' is used uninitialized in this function
This patch fixes the issue by placing pthread_create before pthread_join in the
test program.

AX_BOOST_BASE: fix host boost search when cross-compiling
The AX_BOOST_BASE macro likes to do searches in the host paths (/usr and

AX_CHECK_ICU: added support for icu-specific CPPFLAGS
This macro uses the icu-config utility which treats CPPFLAGS separately
from CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS. Clients should be able to obtain the value of
CPPFLAGS, which is not currently possible. This patch fixes that.
Note that this behavior is slightly different from PKG_CHECK_MODULES,
since the underlying pkg-config doesn't distinguish between CFLAGS and
CPPFLAGS. Using CFLAGS instead of CPPFLAGS with icu-config leads to
problems, such as header files not found, and compilation errors since
icu has its own slightly quirky ideas about what kind of strict warnings
should be used, even though these are not required for using the ICU
headers.
Clients should typically use ICU_CPPFLAGS rather than ICU_CFLAGS or
ICU_CXXFLAGS if they just want to be able to find headers.

AX_CXX_HELPFUL_TERMINATE_HANDLER: initial version
Submitted by Kevin Locke in <https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/index.php?7005>:
| As a compliment (or possibly replacement) to the current
| AX_CXX_VERBOSE_TERMINATE_HANDLER macro, I present the
| AX_CXX_HELPFUL_TERMINATE_HANDLER macro. Rather than specifically looking for
| the GNU libstdc++ verbose_terminate_handler, this macro uses a test program
| which throws an uncaught exception then checks if the output contains
| information about the exception. This way it can detect helpful terminate
| handlers other than the current one provided with GNU libstdc++.
|
| The design of this macro is not perfect. Most importantly, the logic for
| capturing and testing the output of the test program is not very elegant. I
| had first attempted to check for output from within the test program (by
| redirecting std::cerr, capturing SIGABRT, etc.) but it was excessively ugly
| and not very portable. The result is that the logic in the macro itself is a
| little more awkward so that the test program is trivial. I think it was a
| good trade, but feedback is welcome.

ax_enable_builddir: improve quality of generated top-level Makefile
The top-level Makefile is generated by mangling rules, "a: b". We
already avoid mangling "a := b". But we should also exclude "a = :".
Apparently this was causing unbalanced parenthesis errors on some
systems.

AX_LATEX_*: marked obsolete because of issues with LGPL license
The AX_LATEX_* family of macros is distributed under the LPGL license.
Use of that license is discouraged for Autoconf macros, because it might
impose licensing restrictions on the generated configure script. All
other macros in the Archive that are licensed under LGPL or GPL feature
an explicit Autoconf Exception that lifts those limitations, but the
LaTeX macros did not. Unfortunately, all attempts to contact the author
with a request to remedy the situation have been been unsuccessful.
Dropped obsolete macros from the repository.
These macros have been replaced by newer versions and are no longer required.
Where applicable, the newer versions feature an AU_ALIAS() forwarder that
redirects invocations of the obsolete macro to the current one.

Revert "Add AU_ALIAS calls to obsolete macros."
Commit b456074a0da5f319a512c043e6c5102e078923f4 adds AU_ALIAS calls that
forward from the obsolete macro names to the new ones. However, at this point
it's uncertain whether that usage of AU_ALIAS actually works as intended. In
order to avoid breaking things until the issue has been clarified, the change
is reverted.

VL_LIB_READLINE: set LIBS correctly in case of a cache hit
The macro didn't set LIBS appropriately if there is a cache hit. It only
sets it if there is a cache miss.
I've modified the code to set LIBS in the stanza which checks to see if
$vl_cv_lib_readline has been set. This required resetting LIBS in the
AC_CACHE_CHECK "COMMANDS-TO-SET-IT" argument so that the appropriate
libs wouldn't be included twice if there was a cache miss.

AX_DIST_RPM: Do not break VPATH builds
AX_DIST_RPM was breaking VPATH builds since it was expecting the spec
template to be in the build directory during configure time. Obviously
this breaks distcheck which checks, among other things, VPATH builds.
AX_DIST_RPM: Do not hard code the spec template
The spec template was hard coded in and the macro was ignoring the
template given by the caller.
AX_DIST_RPM: Remove use of @NAME@ and @VER@.
It appears that at one point the previously values were being
substituted in at make time but this is no longer the case. Modify the
example to use the @PACKAGE@ and @VERSION@ variables instead.
AX_DIST_RPM: Update the example spec file in comment.
The example should use the `License' tag rather than the legacy `Copyright'
tag.

Synchronize last-modified-date with GIT repository.
The last-modified-date of these macros didn't match their respective
last-modified-date in the GIT repository. A version bump remedies this
inconsistency. In hindsight, these dates should have bumped when the
distribution format changed; all macros had to be touched at this point
anyway.

AX_CVS,AX_DIST_MSI: Rewritten to use AX_ADD_AM_MACRO_STATIC.
These changes have not been tested very well since I don't have the software
setup to use either one. It's also worth mentioning that AX_DIST_MSI appears
to use GNU Make syntax which will cause Automake to complain unless portability
warnings are disabled.
Please feel free to modify this patch and commit message as necessary.
2009-04-20 Allan Caffee <allan.caffee@gmail.com>
AX_DIST_RPM (and dependent macros) Modified to use AX_ADD_AM_MACRO_STATIC.
The macros AX_UPLOAD, AX_INSTALL_FILES, and AX_EXTRA_DIST which are often used
in conjunction with AX_DIST_RPM were also updated to use
AX_ADD_AM_MACRO_STATIC.
Thanks go to Ralf Wildenhues for the idea of adding local cleanup and
distribution targets as prerequisites the *-local/*-hook targets.
2009-04-20 Allan Caffee <allan.caffee@gmail.com>
AX_ADD_AM_MACRO_STATIC: Added a new macro and helpers.
This new macro adds some text to the file aminclude_static.am when *Autoconf*
is run. The current macro AX_ADD_AM_MACRO writes text to the file
`aminclude.am' when _configure_ is run. Unfortunately this means that a) the
existing macro append Make code rather than Automake code as the name would
imply and b) only works for implementations of Make which allow includes, BSD
Make and GNU Make are the only ones that come to mind.
Hopefully this new macro will eventually replace the existing one altogether
because it allows Automake to do the actual work thereby offering more portable
Makefiles and pushing logic out of configure conditionals and into
AM_CONDITIONALs. However, in an attempt to avoid breaking existing Autoconf
scripts those macros have been left unchanged for the time being.

AX_PROG_MD5SUM: initial version

AUTHORS: updated after recent changes to AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR
2009-04-19 Alan Jenkins <alan-jenkins@tuffmail.co.uk>
AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR: Add support for "dist-bzip2" target and friends
We already get a special toplevel Makefile rule for "dist", which
copies the tarball from the build directory to the source directory.
Many projects publish tarballs compressed using Bzip2 to save a bit
more bandwidth. Automake provides a "dist-bzip2" rule for this
purpose, and many others for different compression methods.
Unfortunately the rules don't all match the file extensions (dist-bzip
makes .bz2). So for dist-foo rules, just copy *all* the tarballs.
Ugly, but useful.
2009-04-19 Alan Jenkins <alan-jenkins@tuffmail.co.uk>
AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR: Fix "make distclean" toplevel Makefile target
$ ./configure; make
...
MAKE i686-pc-linux-gnu : 0 * distclean
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/alan/bootup/src/module-init-tools/build'
rm -f doc/*.tmp manpage.refs manpage.links
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/alan/bootup/src/module-init-tools/build'
MAKE i686-pc-linux-gnu : 0 * distclean (all local builds)
# rm -r .
# (sleep 3)
rm -r .
rm: cannot remove directory `.'
The problem is the method used to determine which builddirs are local,
and therefore should removed by "make distclean". It relies on them
starting with "./", but they don't :-). Instead, we can assume that
non-local directories will start with "/" or "../".
2009-04-19 Alan Jenkins <alan-jenkins@tuffmail.co.uk>
AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR: Prevent multiple dist-all targets in top-level Makefile
$ ./configure; make
...
Makefile:852: target `dist-all' given more than once in the same rule.
The macro generates additional X-all targets, meaning "make target X in
all build directories". My source Makefile includes a rule like this:
dist dist-all: ...
It gets converted to
dist dist-all dist-all:
When what we really want is this
dist dist-all:
2009-04-19 Alan Jenkins <alan-jenkins@tuffmail.co.uk>
AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR: Fix ":=" assignments in top-level generated Makefile
The sed script which generates the top-level Makefile from the Makefile
in the build directory is flawed. It treats an assignment of the form
"TESTSUITE := ..." as a makefile rule - because it contains ":".
$ make
...
MAKE : 1 * TESTSUITE
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/alan/bootup/src/module-init-tools/build'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `TESTSUITE'. Stop.
Fix the sed script to skip the rule-related commands for lines which
contain ":=". As a cleanup, we can also skip the rule-related commands
for lines which do not contain ":". That simplifies those commands,
because they don't need to test for ":" themselves.
2009-04-19 Alan Jenkins <alan-jenkins@tuffmail.co.uk>
AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR: Fix builds configured from a subdirectory
I would like to be able to bypass ENABLE_BUILDDIR and configure a
subdirectory myself, without generating a toplevel Makefile.
(This is for an unusual automated testsuite which tests behaviour
with different configure options, and compiles with -DJUST_TESTING
to build a testable version of the program).
$ mkdir build; cd build; ../configure
...
config.status: executing buildir commands
config.status: create top_srcdir/Makefile guessed from local Makefile
config.status: build in yes (HOST=)
...
$ cd ..; make
MAKE i686-pc-linux-gnu : 0 * all-all
/bin/bash: line 9: cd: yes: No such file or directory
make: *** [all-all] Error 1
Also:
./configure --disable-builddir
...
config.status: executing buildir commands
config.status: keeping top_srcdir/Makefile from earlier configure
...
Which should really be:
config.status: executing buildir commands
config.status: leaving top_srcdir/Makefile untouched
2009-04-19 Alan Jenkins <alan-jenkins@tuffmail.co.uk>
AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR: Fix path for config.guess
Using this macro, I get a warning that config.guess can't be found.
It doesn't cause a problem for me because I'm not cross-compiling
for multiple hosts, but it is annoying.
$ ./configure
...
$ make
sh: Can't open ../config.guess
...
Reason: ".." is "$AUX".
The top-level makefile is generated *after* the configure script reruns
itself in the build directory. At that point, AUX is equal to "..".
Solution: use AM_AUX_DIR_EXPAND to generate an absolute version of
ac_aux_dir.

AX_BOOST_{THREAD,PROGRAM_OPTIONS}: replace non-portable shell constructs
The mentioned files contain a non-portable shell construct, brace expansion

rather not mess with them.

AX_C99_INLINE: initial version
The macro determines whether the "inline" keyword of a C99 compiler is
standards compliant or not. I am using this macro support differences
between gcc 4.2 (and earlier) and gcc 4.3 (and later) when using the

AX_BOOST: added support for Wave
Updated macros due to link dependencies required in AC_CHECK_LIB.
AX_BOOST_FILESYSTEM requires the BOOST_SYSTEM library while
AX_BOOST_WAVE requires BOOST_THREAD_LIBRARY to link.

AX_PROG_DOXYGEN: bugfix
A collegue of mine recently ran into a problem: some "[]" syntax appear
to be leaking through when autoconf generated ./configure. Actually, it
was that a string was over-quoted and was thus not being expanded when
it should have. In some circumstances, it looks like the bug is `mostly
silent' (save for some bogus output in config.log), but we have seen
autoconf fail as a result of the "[]" being taken as an (invalid)
regexp.

ACLTX_CLASS_CWEB: check the presence of the LaTeX cweb package

ACX_LAPACK: fix typo
This patch for Steven Johnson's acx_lapack.m4 fixes a typo and adds a
missing statement. I believe that the BLAS_LIBS="" statement should be
there, so that if BLAS is not found, the rest of the test is skipped and
LAPACK_LIBS is nullified, which makes sense.

AC_SET_VERSIONLEVEL: obsolete macro
This macro appears to be broken. Any attempt to use, i.e.
AC_SET_VERSIONLEVEL([foo], [1.1.1])
results in an error message: "m4_popdef: undefined macro: foo_MICRO". If
someone knows how to fix this problem, please let me know.
2008-04-28 Peter Simons <simons@cryp.to>
AX_SET_VERSION_INFO: obsolete macro
To the best of my understanding, this macro is based on a misconception
about Libtool's -version-info flag.
Apparently, the macro invocation AX_SET_VERSION_INFO([2.4.18]) is
transformed into "-release 2" and "-version-info 4:18". However, those
two flags contradict each other. The -release option specifies a version
number in the sense that we all know and love, but -version-info does
not: that flag implements a fairly sophisticated scheme meant to express
binary interface compatibility which is supposed to *replace* -release
versions. Deriving settings for both of those flags from one number
doesn't make sense.
See "6.2 Libtool's versioning system" for further details.

ALL: updated m4 distribution format
The markup format distributed by the Autoconf Macro Archive underwent
the following changes:
* All archive entries use '#' comment delimiters, rather than 'dnl',
because we would like those comments to go into the generated
configure script. It should be simple for everyone to determine
where the macro came from originally, who wrote it, and where the
latest version can be retrieved. To achieve this, every macro used
to start with a distinguished line that shows the URL of its
respective home page, i.e.:
| ##### http://autoconf-archive.cryp.to/ax_prog_acme.html
As it happens, the aclocal utility distributed with Automake
ignores all comment lines that start with a double hash '##', thus
those home page URLs will not make it into any automatically
generated aclocal.m4 file. Duh. To remedy the situation, the
following markup is now used instead:
| # =================================================================
| # http://autoconf-archive.cryp.to/ax_prog_acme.html
| # =================================================================
* The 2.x versions of the GNU GPL and LGPL contain the following
clause:
| You should have received a copy of the <GNU LICENSE NAME> along
| with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation,
| Inc., 59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA.
Version 3.x, however, smartly refers the reader to the Web:
| You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
| along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
This patch changes all GPL2 and LGPL2 macros to do the same, i.e.
to refer to the GNU web site for the full text of the respective
license.
* Since all m4 files had to be changed in this commit anyway, the
opportunity was used to increase the auto-fill column for
documentation from 65 to 75 characters per line. It's a trivial
change, but it just looks nicer.

Major re-factoring of Perl, Guile, Python, and Ruby detection macros.
The new submission AX_WITH_PROG generalizes the technique employed by the
original AX_WITH_PYTHON to allow for detecting generic executables. Based on
that macro, trivial wrappers are provided for finding installed versions of
Perl, Guile, Python, and Ruby.
NOTE: The earlier version of AX_WITH_PYTHON performed a version check. The
AX_WITH_PROG-based macros don't do that. Instead, separate macros are available
for Perl, Guile, Python, and Ruby that check the version of a given executable
in a second, independent step.

AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR: Bump modification date to obsolete the reverted version.
2007-08-21 Peter Simons <simons@cryp.to>
AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR: Revert renaming of variable HOST to BUILD.
Further discussion on the Autoconf mailing list has reached the
following consensus: although BUILD is the right choice in most
cases, in case of cross-compilation it is not. Cross-compilation
needs HOST to be set, so the original version of this macro is
the safer choice. This patch reverts commit
41da8f494cd209a9836ebeae8f211cb84dde9153.
An unpleasant property of HOST is that most shell environments
define that variable to the local hostname. When configure uses
$HOST as a default setting, however, that is not what it expects
to find -- HOST is supposed to be config.guess tripple. Thus, the
user is forced to specify HOST explicitly or to undefine $HOST in
the shell before calling configure. That's a bit of mess. Bright
ideas and patches are welcome.

AX_COMPILER_VENDOR: added support for Pathscale compiler
2007-08-09 Julian Cummings <cummings@cacr.caltech.edu>
AX_F90_MODULE_FLAG: drop support for -module flag
It turns out that in Version 3.0 of the Pathscale Fortran
compiler they have "clarified" the meaning of the -module flag to
only be for setting the directory where *.mod files are written.
In version 3.0, you can only use -module once in a command line,
and if you use it, then the compiler will look there first for
module files to be read before looking in the -I directories.
Thus, it really is best to just use the -I flag here and let the
user add one specific -module option only if they want or need to
redirect module output files.
This commit reverts 5ba234dd8f69456238e7718d4f3a7c116639e373.

AX_F90_MODULE_FLAG: support -module PGI compiler flag
I have "-module " to the list of compiler options that is tried
in order to support the PGI Fortran compiler. Without this
change, the PGI compiler actually accepts "-I" and passes the
test. However, this option is actually meant for setting the
include file search path to find files that are included with the
Fortran INCLUDE statement. Although the -I flag works in this
case because there are no -module options on the command line,
things will not work correctly if the user does bring in the
-module option on the actual compile command line.
2007-08-04 Peter Simons <simons@cryp.to>
AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR_UNAME: Obsoleted.
This macro duplicates the functionality of the standard Autoconf macro

AX_ENABLE_BUILDDIR: Renamed variable HOST to BUILD.
The patch universally replaces "host" with "build" and "HOST"
with "BUILD". The rationale is that typically the user wishes to
segregate builds based upon the BUILD target rather than the
configuration HOST type. Now that these host and build variables
are treated as more fully distinct in Autoconf, it makes sense to
honor this distinction.

ax_boost*.m4: fix library detection when compiling with -pedantic
When running the Boost macros with the "-pedantic" compiler
switch, they fail. It seems that the problem is a multiply
defined "main" function in the generated test program. I changed
the call to AC_CHECK_LIB to use "exit" instead of "main", which
seems to work reliably.

AX_TLS: initial version
The attached macro attempts to detect compiler support for TLS
storage class extensions and how to use that extension. It then
defines the macro TLS to the keyword it found.

AX_BOOST_*, AX_PYTHON: Michael Tindal's e-mail address is invalid.
The address <mtindal@paradoxpoint.com> no longer works because the
domain name paradoxpoint.com appears to have expired. If anyone knows
how to reach Michael these days, please let me know. Thanks to Mikael
Lepistö for bringing this problem to my attention.

Bug fix for Solaris 9.
One of our users noticed some strange output on Solaris 9 from
this macro. It looks like it was a fairly trivial typo, executing
$1 (a list of headers) instead of $2 (optional shell commands).

There is an error at line:

in ax_f90_module_flag.m4. It should read:

ax_boost*.m4: Portability improvements.
Joerg Sonnenberger reported a problem:
| This fails on a number of systems because in

|
| the BOOST_REGEX_LIB a local variable for break. Can you fix
