ngircd/configure.in, branch rel-25ngircd with make
http://git.nakidai.ru/ngircd/atom?h=rel-252012-09-23T16:13:55+00:00Change build system to support new and old GNU automake2012-09-23T16:13:55+00:00Alexander Bartonalex@barton.de2012-09-23T15:55:48+00:00urn:sha1:192e304b94f239de13b0f10ca01f6694fe6eea40
Starting with GNU automake 1.12, the "de-ANSI-fication support" has been
removed, which ngIRCd used to enable building itself on very old systems.
Now the problem is, that using automake >= 1.12 isn't working because of
the now unsupported M4 macros. Therefore the solution that this patch
implements is to dynamically generate the automake input files with our
own ./autogen.sh script:
configure.ng => configure.in
Makefile.ng => Makefile.am
This is quite an ugly approach, but it works and enables us to:
1. use current automake >= 1.12 for development and "private builds",
2. still build distribution archives using automake 1.11.x that have
"de-ANSI-fication support" enabled in the generated Makefile's.
And if you are using Makefile's generated with a automake version newer
than 1.11.x (without "de-ANSI-fication support"), the ./configure script
warns you not to use this generated build system to generate distribution
archives.
Drawback of this patch: you MUST use our autogen.sh script, you can't call
the autoconf/automake commands directly any more; but autoreconf should
still work ...
Don't use AC_FUNC_MALLOC and AC_FUNC_REALLOC2012-09-15T18:26:59+00:00Alexander Bartonalex@barton.de2012-09-15T18:26:59+00:00urn:sha1:fe3bef55b75c5fbfbf87b098cbc61453b718435e
We don't expect the GNU'ish behaviour of of malloc() and realloc() and never
implemented the replacement functions rpl_malloc()/rpl_realloc() -- so these
test result in linking failues on systems that don't have a GNU'ish malloc()
and realloc() even though we don't require it!
Introduced by commit 47ad9afc.

Use the AC_SEARCH_LIBS macro to test for "sometimes but not always"
required libraries, not AC_CHECK_LIB.

Don't use AC_C_PROTOTYPES, AM_C_PROTOTYPES is already used.
