GNU Info (autoconf.info)Configuration FilesCreating Configuration Files ============================ Be sure to read the previous section, Note: Configuration Actions. - Macro: AC_CONFIG_FILES (FILE..., [CMDS], [INIT-CMDS]) Make `AC_OUTPUT' create each `FILE' by copying an input file (by default `FILE.in'), substituting the output variable values. This macro is one of the instantiating macros, see Note: Configuration Actions. Note: Makefile Substitutions, for more information on using output variables. Note: Setting Output Variables, for more information on creating them. This macro creates the directory that the file is in if it doesn't exist. Usually, `Makefile's are created this way, but other files, such as `.gdbinit', can be specified as well. Typical calls to `AC_CONFIG_FILES' look like this: AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile src/Makefile man/Makefile X/Imakefile]) AC_CONFIG_FILES([autoconf], [chmod +x autoconf]) You can override an input file name by appending to FILE a colon-separated list of input files. Examples: AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile:boiler/top.mk:boiler/bot.mk] [lib/Makefile:boiler/lib.mk]) Doing this allows you to keep your file names acceptable to MS-DOS, or to prepend and/or append boilerplate to the file. automatically generated by info2www version 1.2.2.9 |
