-1999-03-14 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * TODO: libltdl is now documented

- fixed typo
- * doc/libltdl.texi (libltdl): added documentation for building
- libtool modules and examples how to embed libltdl

- at the right place)
-
-1999-03-14 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (deplibs_check_method=none): discard -L and -R
- switches when testing whether deplibs contains some library
-
-1999-03-14 Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>
-
- * config.sub: recognize hppa2.0w, yet to be installed at GNU
-
- * config.guess: minor update for FreeBSD-elf, yet to be installed
- at GNU
-
-1999-03-14 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (bsdi4*, sys_lib_search_path_spec,
- sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec): fix thinko in variable names; add
- standard directories
-
- * ltmain.in (exclude_expsyms): exclude symbols before sorting,
- otherwise only the sorted list will have them excluded
-
- * ltconfig.in (file_magic_cmd, file_magic_test_file, freebsd-elf*,
- bsdi4*): use full pathnames when possible
-
- * Makefile.am (all-recursive): depend on ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST

-
- * doc/PLATFORMS: updated platforms tested on 1.2f-pre; clean up;
- reorder; untabify
-

-
- * doc/libtool.texi: notes on thread-safety problems of
- libltdl/dlopen on GNU/Linux and FreeBSD
-
- * ltconfig.in (aix3*, aix4*): GNU ld on AIX is very broken: it
- cannot create working shared libraries. Print a warning
- suggesting the user not to use it and disable shared libraries.
-
-1999-03-13 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_to_cdecl): was reset before trying
- `symprfx=_', rendering the test with `_' useless
-
- * doc/libtool.texi (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): eliminate overfull boxes
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: complete dlopening/libltdl documentation
-
- * ltconfig.in (osf3*, osf4*, deplibs_check_method): pass_all does
- not really work; use file_magic instead.
- (osf3*, osf4*): customize sys_lib_[dl]search_path_spec
-
- * ltconfig.in (file_magic_test_file): new variable; if set, it
- will be used as an argument for $file_magic_cmd to test whether
- the regex in deplibs_check_method matches its output
- (file_magic_cmd): use full pathnames whenever possible
-
- * ltconfig.in (sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec): new variable, that
- lists the system *run-time* search path. Listed directories are
- not implicitly hard-coded into executables.
- * ltmain.in: use it, but *never* discard -R flags
- * doc/libtool.texi: document it
- * NEWS: ditto
- Reported by Bob Friesenhahn <bfriesen@simple.dallas.tx.us>
-
- * tests/sh.test: look for `$Xsed' without `$echo "X...'
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: fixed a few such occurrences
-
- * ltmain.in (-static, -all-static): revert March 11's patch, I was
- barking up the wrong tree
-
-1999-03-12 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: removed FILENAME_MAX since LTDL_FILENAME_MAX
- is sufficient and doesn't break HP/UX
-
-1999-03-11 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in: (global_symbol_pipe) extract symbol tag from the
- output of NM too
- (global_symbol_to_cdecl): new variable; convert the output of
- global_symbol_pipe to valid C declarations; on HP/UX, convert
- text symbols to function declarations
- * libtool.m4: similar modifications
- * doc/libtool.texi: document new variable
- * ltmain.in: use global_symbol_to_cdecl to generate lt_dlpreopened
- symbols; avoid extracting symbol lists from dlpreopened files
- twice; do not filter symbols from dlpreopened libraries
- * TODO: fixed HP/UX dlpreopening problem
-
- * ltmain.in (-static, -all-static): set dlopen_self to
- $dlopen_self_static regardless of link_static_flag or pic_flag
-
- * ltmain.in: FreeBSD bug that needs symbol table compiled with
- -fPIC is fixed in release 3.1; use it only for 2.* and 3.0
-
-1999-03-11 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltmain.in: when building a library it doesn't make
- sense to remove a relinked program ("lt-" prefix)
-
-1999-03-11 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * mdemo/main.c (main, test_dl, test_dlself): propagate error
- conditions better, to avoid false positives
-
- * */configure.in: AC_SUBST(LIBTOOL_DEPS)
- * */Makefile.am $(OBJECTS): depend on libtool
- (libtool): rebuild automatically
-
- * ltconfig.in: set dlopen_* variables to unknown when appropriate
- * ltmain.in: only emit warning about lack of AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN if
- *all* dlopen_* variables are set to unknown
-
-1999-03-11 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltmain.in: delete the old output files (incl. the relinked binary)
- before linking.
-
- * ltconfig.in: replaced `configure' with $progname and all
- line numbers with @LINENO@
-
-1999-03-11 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (strdup): cannot return str when it's NULL
- because of const correctness
-
-1999-03-10 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (strdup): always use our own, because the
- standard strdup won't use lt_dlmalloc
-
- * ltconfig.in (dlfcn.h): function definition may cause warnings;
- define variable instead
-
- * ltmain.in: properly create an export file for a program,
- avoiding error messages about not finding it
-
- * TODO: need to document AC_LIBLTDL_*; static self dlopening
- problem fixed
-
- * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN): just set lt_dlopen=yes
- (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): if lt_dlopen=yes, add --enable-dlopen to
- libtool_flags; drop --enable-dlopen-self
- * ltconfig.in: perform all the dirty work of testing for dlopening
- support, because we need platform-dependent equivalents for
- -export-dynamic, for self dlopening, and -static, for static self
- dlopening
- (dlopen_self_static): new configuration variable that is set to
- yes only if static programs can dlopen themselves
- * ltmain.in (-static, -all-static): dlopen_self=dlopen_self_static
-
- * libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_need_uscore): do not assume
- dlfcn.h and LTDL_LAZY exist; use LTDL_GLOBAL and LTDL_LAZY_OR_NOW.
- This test is likely to fail if self-dlopening does not work,
- especially because we do not link the program with
- -export-dynamic. Let's just hope that platforms whose symbol
- names start with underscores will also accept underscores for
- dlopen. We should probably use libtool to compile and link this
- test, so that we can use -export-dynamic.
-
- * mdemo/Makefile.am (@LIBLTDL@): depend on ../libltdl/config.h
-
- * configure.in: fix AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS for ltconfig and ltmain.sh
- so that they work if srcdir is relative too
-
- * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE, AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE):
- avoid introducing multiple --enable options when re-running
- config.status
- * libltdl/configure.in: if enable_ltdl_* is not set, assume no
- * configure.in: if enable_ltdl_install is not set, enable it
-
- * libltdl/configure.in: only assume implicit installation if
- libltdl was libtoolized. If not, print a warning message
- suggesting the use of --enable-ltdl-install or of one of the
- AC_LIBLTDL_* macros.
-
- * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): new macro, that does all the
- configure-work that AC_PROG_LIBTOOL used to do; add
- --cache-file=$cache_file to libtool_flags
- (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): call AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, save the cache, run
- ltconfig and reload the cache
- * configure.in: run AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, then set LIBTOOL_FLAGS to
- libtool_flags
- * ltconfig.in: support --cache-file switch. If it is used, load
- the cache in the beginning and save it just before terminating
-
- * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): run demo-nofast before demo-shared
-
- * configure.in: create ltconfig and ltmain.sh at the end of
- config.status, if they do not exist. This fixes the bootstrap
- problem reported by Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>
-
-1999-03-10 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * NEWS: sorted by importance
- * Makefile.am: set LIBTOOL_FLAGS when generating libtool
- * configure.in: check for dlopen support and set LIBTOOL_FLAGS
- accordingly
-
- * configure.in: fix spacing for --disable-ltdl-install,
- always configure libltdl, add libltdl/acinclude.m4 to
- ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST, disable installation of libltdl if necessary
- * libltdl/Makefile.am: set version info for libltdl.la
- * libltdl/configure.in: don't check whether
- enable_ltdl_convenience/install was set so that libltdl
- can be used as independent package (libltdl.tar.gz) without
- the need to use --enable-ltdl*
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: minor cleanups, allocate the line cache
- dynamically (lt_dlopen)
-
-1999-03-10 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): some preprocessors choke if the `#'
- of `#define' is not in column 1; let's go back to fortran! :-)
- Add #undefs too, to avoid potential warnings or errors.
-
-1999-03-09 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE, AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE):
- renamed convenience libltdl, dropped toinst hack for installable
- * libltdl/Makefile.am: ditto
- * libltdl/configure.in: ditto; abort if none of the macros is used
-
- * ltmain.in: $output_objdir/$objdir/ -> $output_objdir/lt-
-
-1999-03-09 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): don't hardcode the length of the
- constant strings
-
-1999-03-09 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * Makefile.am (install-data-hook): install libltdl as a directory,
- not as a tar-file, so that we do not modify the build tree at make
- install time
- * libtoolize.in (ltdl, ltdl_tar): update
-
- * configure.in, Makefile.am, NEWS: install libltdl by default
-
- * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE, AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE):
- new macros
- * NEWS: ditto
- * libltdl/configure.in: if none of the new macros or configure
- arguments are used, warn and build convenience library only
- * libltdl/Makefile.am: conditionally build convenience libltdl.la
- * mdemo/configure.in: use AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: refer to @LIBLTDL@
-
-1999-03-09 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * NEWS: updated.
-
-1999-03-08 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in: extract symbols from program objects to nlist first,
- then translate them to the export_symbols format. Now it works,
- but it appears to be needlessly extracting the symbol list from
- dlpreopened libraries twice
-
- * ltmain.in: temporarily disable dlopen_self when linking with
- -static or -all-static, until we figure out how to test whether it
- works at configure time
-
- * TODO: remember to fix this later
-
- * tests/build-relink.test: when hell is expected to fail, run it
- within a subshell and redirect stderr to stdout, so that dynamic
- linker errors are only printed in verbose mode
-
- * ltmain.in (hardcode_libdir_separator, compile_rpath,
- finalize_rpath): only substitute hardcode_libdir_flag_spec if
- hardcode_libdirs is non-empty
-
- * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN): do not depend on the existence
- of dlfcn.h nor on the definition of RTLD_LAZY
-
- * tests/build-relink.test: hellT was renamed to lt-hell
-
- * libltdl/Makefile.am (@TOINST@/libltdl.la): do not hide the
- command that creates the TOINST directory; remove `-o $@' from the
- LINK command, $(LINK) already contains it.
-
-1999-03-08 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * doc/libtool.texi (tests): documented demo-nofast.test and
- renamed cdemo* to demo*
-
-1999-03-08 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libltdl/Makefile.am, libltdl/configure.in, mdemo/Makefile.am:
- libltdl must not be renamed; if there's a problem with the install
- option, let's fix it, not just work around it by breaking code of
- users of the convenience library
-
- * tests/build-relink.test: link broken libhello.la with at least
- one libtool object
-
-1999-03-08 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * TODO: updated (libltdl build problem fixed)
- * doc/libtool.texi (libltdl interface): removed the line which
- promised that lt_dlopen will return NULL if it can't resolve all
- symbols
- * libltdl/Makefile.am, libltdl/configure.in: fixed build problem:
- renamed the convenience library to libltdlc.la and the
- installed version to libltdl.la
- * ltmain.in (wrapper script): replaced the "T" suffix of the program
- file name with a "lt-" prefix
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: use libltdlc.la
- * tests/Makefile.am, tests/demo-nofast.test: added demo to
- test --enable-fast-install=no
-
-1999-03-07 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): run hardcode before build-relink
- trashes libhello.la
- * tests/hardcode.test (need_prefix): set to yes so that _inst is
- not removed
-
- * ltmain.in (compile_command): append finalize search path to
- compile search path
-
- * tests/build-relink.test: new; check shlibpath_overrides_runpath
- * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): add build-relink.test; remove
- hardcode.test duplicates
- * doc/libtool.texi: document it
-
- * ltmain.in (relink_command): do not prepend cd `pwd` to it, the
- scripts already enters the correct directory, and expanding the
- pathname would prevent the build tree from moving
-
- * ltconfig.in (enable_fast_install): force it to no only if we
- need relink; in the other cases, set it to needless
- * ltmain.in (fast_install): if needless, set relink_command empty
- * doc/libtool.texi (fast_install, shlibpath_overrides_runpath):
- document the new behavior
-
- * ltconfig.in (enable_fast_install): test whether it can be forced
- off after shlibpath_overrides_runpath and enable_shared are set
-
-1999-03-07 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * TODO: updated
- * NEWS: updated
-
- * TODO: scheduled some items for next release/future
- * demo/configure.in: use AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
- * libtool.m4: added AC_ENABLE/DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL macro
- * ltconfig.in: added --disable-fast-install flag
- * ltmain.in: partially reverted Alexandre's patch and implemented
- on-demand linking in such a way that the old developer-friendly
- linking style is optional,
- don't hardcode library paths that are in the system search path,
- fixed a typo in lib_search_path,
- implemented -export-symbols-regex for programs
-
-1999-03-06 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (LTDL_LAZY_OR_NOW): renamed from LTDL_NOW; prefer
- LAZY loading because it's much faster and NOW is apparently
- partially broken on FreeBSD
- Reported by Archie Cobbs <archie@whistle.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in (archive_expsym_cmds, solaris, without_gnu_ld):
- $lib.exp already starts with $objdir/
- Reported by Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>
-
- * ltmain.in (freebsd): compile symbol table file with pic_flag
- only on FreeBSD and when not static linking; it's been causing
- trouble on platforms such as OpenBSD.
-
-1999-02-26 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * libtool.m4 (cygwin): s/\\(mingw\\|cygwin\\)32/\\1/g. Must've
- missed this file when I changed to cygnus' new sanction name.
-
- * ltconfig.in (sub_uncdrive): removed. This won't work with
- the next version of cygwin.
- (sub_uncdir): removed. We use <drive>:/path/to/executable now.
- * libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LD): removed sub_uncdrive and sub_uncdir.
-
-1999-02-25 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * TODO: added items for next alpha release, ILD etc.
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: removed unnecessary check from presym_sym,
- fixed bug in lt_dlclose, allow lt_dlopenext(NULL),
- set deplibs for lt_dlopen(NULL)
-
-1999-02-24 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (file_magic_regex): sed `10q' is faster than `11,$d'
-
-1999-02-22 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltconfig.in (dlopen, dlopen_self): default is unknown
- * ltmain.in: fixed -dlopen self, print a warning
- if -dlopen is used without AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: use -dlopen self
-
-1999-02-22 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in: added missing mkdir $progdir for on-demand executable
-
- * ltmain.in: create on-demand executable as $progdir/$$-$program,
- and rename it to $progdir/$program only when it's finished, to
- avoid race conditions. We can still get the program linked
- multiple times, if multiple instances are started simultaneously
- and the program does not exist, but they are very unlikely to
- interfere with each other. There's still a possibility that one
- process removes the $program another has just created, and doesn't
- replace it before the other tries to run it, in a system whose
- `mv' is not atomic, so it will $rm then $mv, but so what? :-)
- Locking files have been avoided to prevent dead-locks in case they
- are left over after a reboot or crash.
-
- * TODO: removed ILD, soon to be merged, and added convenience
- libraries docs
-
- * ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, shlibpath_overides_runpath): yes
-
- * ltmain.in: remove on-demand executable in the proper place, and
- just warn if it can't be removed; add wrapper code to test whether
- the install-executable is newer than the build-executable, to
- relink it when it appears to be out-of-date
-
- * libltdl/configure.in: check for dld.h
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: include dld.h
- (dld_open) it's spelled memory_error, not no_memory_error
- Reported by Stefan Burstroem <f94sbu@efd.lth.se>
-
- * ltmain.in: fix typos in my last change (s/ocmpile/compile/)
-
-1999-02-21 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): use newhandle instead of handle
- when dlopening the executable
- * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN): removed the redundant "yes: "
- prefix for lt_cv_dlopen, renamed lt_cv_dlopen_LIBS
- to lt_cv_dlopen_libs (more consistent)
- * ltmain.in: implemented -dl[pre]open self, necessary for
- lt_dlopen(NULL), generation of exported symbols was broken
-
-1999-02-20 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in: avoid duplication of -L switches, it sometimes breaks
- IRIX 5.2's linker
-
- * ltconfig.in (freebsd*, finish_cmds): expand objformat here
- Reported by Vladimir Kushnir <kushn@mail.kar.net>
-
-1999-02-20 Vladimir Kushnir <kushn@mail.kar.net>
-
- * ltconfig.in (freebsd-elf*, need_version, need_lib_prefix): no
- (freebsd-elf*, library_names_spec): add $libname.so instead of
- $libname.so$versuffix; add $libname$release.so
-
-1999-02-20 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: remove ticks from menu items; it breaks TeX
- Reported by Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>
-
- * ltmain.in: fixes for export-symbols dry-run
-
- * ltconfig.in (shlibpath_overrides_runpath): new variable;
- determines whether LD_LIBRARY_PATH or equivalent can be used to
- override a hard-coded library search path; default to unknown
- (linux-gnu*): set it to no
- (solaris*, sunos4*): set it to yes
- * ltmain.in (build_libdirs_flags, build_libdirs, build_rpath): if
- shlibpath_overrides_runpath is not yes, arrange that wrapper
- scripts create, on demand, programs that use uninstalled libraries
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: document it
-
- * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN): check for dlopen in libc before
- trying in dl. Add the actual dlopening type to lt_cv_dlopen, and
- add any needed libraries to lt_cv_dlopen_LIBS. Add test for
- MS-Windows' LoadLibrary. Check whether a program can dlopen
- itself only if we really have dlopen(), not some equivalent
- function, but leave room for testing with other mechanisms.
- (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): assume some form of dlopen, but not
- dlopen(NULL), is available if AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN is not used, for
- backward compatibility.
+ * doc/libtool.texi: some minor corrections to the "-dlopen self"
+ documentation
+ * tests/Makefile.am: sorted by name, added assign.test
+ * ChangeLog: started new file
-1999-02-20 Archie Cobbs <archie@whistle.com>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): use newhandle instead of handle
- where appropriate, when dlopening a non-libtool library
-
-1999-02-19 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltconfig.in (export_symbols_cmds): renamed from
- export_symbols_cmd.
- (cygwin, mingw): Be sure to compile the ltdll.c object before
- extracting the exported symbol list. Extract only the names
- of the exported symbols from the def file [otherwise we might
- run into trouble with -export-symbols-regex].
- (archive_expsym_cmds): Regenerate the def file from the symbol
- export list.
- (delay_variable_subst): New sed expression to allow us to delay
- evaluation of $foo in a double_quote_subst evaluated variable by
- using \$.
- * ltmain.in (export_symbols_cmds): evaluate each ~ delimitted cmd
- separately.
- * doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents): new paragraph to
- explain the difference between _cmd and _cmds suffixes for
- variable names.
- (export_symbols_cmds): renamed from export_symbols_cmd.
-
-1999-02-18 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs): move -soname and similar flags to the
- end of archive_cmds and archive_expsym_cmds, so as to prevent
- gcc's collect2 from inserting an object file between -soname and
- the library name
-
- * ltconfig.in (openbsd*, netbsd*, library_names_spec): append
- alternate name without ${release}, otherwise build fails when
- -release is used
-
-1999-02-18 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltconfig.in (archive{,_sym}_commands): Be careful not to
- re-export the dll entry points DllMain@12, _cygwin_dll_entry@12 and
- _cygwin_noncygwin_dll_entry@12 to avoid bugs with the wrong entry
- function being called with inter-dll dependencies.
- Reported by DJ Delorie <dj@delorie.com>
- * THANKS: Added DJ Delorie, since his code inspired the impgen.c
- program and because he has patiently answered all of the
- irritating dll and win32 questions I have fired at him.
-
- * ltmain.in (version_type): Oops. Irix versioning implies that
- major version numbers are 1 based (not zero based). Fixed.
-
- * ltmain.in (version_type): Implement irix versioning.
- * ltconfig.in (irix{5,6}*): Use new irix shared object versioning.
- * TODO: remove irix versioning from TODO list.
-
- * ltmain.in (impgen.c): Added a new embedded C file that can be
- used under win32 to extract a def file (symbol export list) from a
- dll that has none. Code to use it might need to wait for the ILD

- * TODO: updated
- * autogen: only libltdl needs autoheader
- * doc/libtool.texi (link mode): documented -export-symbols-regex
- and updated -export-symbols
- * doc/libtool.texi (script contents): documented
- always_export_symbols, export_symbols_cmd, exclude_expsyms,
- include_expsyms, dlopen and dlopen_self
- more detailed description of need_lib_prefix
- * ltconfig.in: a "'" was missing in the default value
- of export_symbols_cmd
- * ltmain.in: implemented -export-symbols-regex
-
-1999-02-17 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in: (freebsd2*, sunos4*, exclude_expsyms): exclude
- _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_
- * ltmain.in: implement exclude_expsyms with egrep
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlmalloc, lt_dlfree): SunOS' cc can't cope
- with argument lists, we __P even in the definition
-
-1999-02-15 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * cdemo/Makefile.am: renamed *foo1 to *foo, removed $(MATH_LIB)
- * cdemo/foo1.c: renamed to foo.c
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: eliminated lt_dltype, in presym_open():
- search for @PROGRAM@ if filename == 0, in lt_dlopen():
- fixed bug for filename == 0
- * libltdl/ltdl.h: use __P macro for lt_dlmalloc/free
- * libtool.m4: new macro AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN: checks for dlopen
- and dlopen(NULL) support
- * ltconfig.in: added new variables dlopen and dlopen_self,
- --enable-dlopen[-self] flags for AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
- * ltmain.in: use dlopen[_self], dlpreopen files if there's no
- dlopen support, build lt_preloaded_symbols only if
- -dl[pre]open was used, include program symbols if -export-dynamic
- was specified and there's no dlopen(NULL) support
- * mdemo/configure.in: use AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
- * mdemo/main.c: demonstrate lt_dlopen(0)
-
-1999-02-15 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * demo/dlmain.c (_WIN32): The lt_symlist structure is now const,
- so my original horrible temporary win32 hack no longer worked.
- Here is a new horrible temporary hack to prevent helldl from SEGVing
- on win32. I will fix this properly when we figure out how to do
- data exports from dlls.
-
-1999-02-14 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libtool.m4 (AC_CHECK_LIBM): do not set MATHLIB or AC_SUBST it,
- this has a negative side-effect of causing automake to add MATHLIB
- to every single Makefile. Let's use plain AC_CHECK_LIB, so that
- LIBS get set, until we find a better alternative
- * *demo/Makefile.am: remove $(MATHLIB)
-
- * libltdl/configure.in: add a DESCRIPTION argument to AC_DEFINEs
- where appropriate, so as to get rid of acconfig.h
- * libltdl/acconfig.h: removed
-
-1999-02-13 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * *demo/Makefile.am: use $(MATHLIB)
- * *demo/configure.in: use AC_CHECK_LIBM
- * doc/libtool.texi: renamed file_magic_command to file_magic_cmd,
- renamed archive_sym_cmds to archive_expsym_cmds
- * ltconfig.in: ditto
+ * ltconfig.in: some cosmetical changes
* ltmain.in: ditto
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: use lt_dlmalloc/free
- * libltdl/ltdl.h: define lt_dlmalloc/free
- * libtool.m4: added AC_CHECK_LIBM macro
- * ltconfig.in: renamed archive_sym_cmds to archive_expsym_cmds,
- added always_export_symbols, export_symbols_cmd, exclude_expsyms,
- include_expsyms, removed archive_cmds for cygwin/mingw and AIX,
- on Solaris store the exported symbols list in objdir
- * ltmain.in: allow -export-symbols for modules, use thread_safe flag,
- add include_expsyms to the exported symbols
-
-1999-02-12 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.h (_LTDLL_EXTERN): libltdl is no longer linked as a
- shared library, so the _declspec's were preventing the linker from
- resolving symbols on win32. They have been removed now.
-
-1999-02-12 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in: don't try to read objdir/libname.la before it is
- created!
-
- * ltmain.in: create libname.lai at link time, not at install time,
- but still create it at install time if it is missing
- Reported by Akim Demaille <demaille@inf.enst.fr>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (tryall_dlopen): strcmp filenames was reversed
-
-1999-02-11 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * autogen: libltdl needs autoheader
- * demo/Makefile.am: renamed hell.debug to hell.static
- (we're demonstrating static linking, not debugging)
- * tests/demo*: ditto
- * doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): documented new lt_dlopen(NULL)
- feature
- * libltdl/acconfig.h: required for config.h
- * libltdl/configure.in: use config.h
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: use config.h, support lt_dlopen(NULL)
- (returns a handle for the program itself)
- * ltconfig.in: minor reformatting
- * ltmain.in: in lt_preloaded_symbols always define
- the program's symbols first, for -export-dynamic list all
- program symbols together, -export-symbols was broken for
- programs, minor reformatting
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: renamed mdemo.debug to mdemo.static
- * tests/mdemo*: ditto, mdemo.test was completely broken
-
-1999-02-10 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, osf3*, osf4*): do not use
- -set_version in archive_cmds if verstring is empty
- (irix6*, shlibpath_var, sys_lib_search_path-spec,
- deplibs_check_method): set appropriate values depending on
- selected ABI, -32, -n32 or -64, as set in LD by libtool.m4
- (uts4*): remove dot between .so and versuffix
-
-1999-02-08 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, deplibs_check_method): use
- file_magic for inter-library dependency tracking
-
- * ltconfig.in (irix5*, hardcode_libdir_separator): set it to a
- colon, because on IRIX 5 only the last -rpath switch prevails, and
- it can be a list of colon-separated directories. This change will
- affect irix6 too, but that's not a problem.
-
- * ltconfig.in (irix5*, library_names_spec): add soname_spec,
- otherwise we can't dlopen
-
-1999-02-08 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltconfig.in: according to Marcus Sundberg <mackan@stacken.kth.se>
- HP/UX, IRIX, OpenBSD, Digital Unix and SunOS support
- need_version=no and need_lib_prefix=no,
- fixed a bug in Solaris' archive_sym_cmds
-
-1999-02-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libtool.m4 (ac_cv_sys_global_symbol_pipe): accept TAB in
- addition to space as separator, and allow more than one space
- between the symbol code and the symbol name; HP/UX's nm, for
- example, uses two spaces
- * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): ditto
- (bsdi4, deplibs_check_method): variable name was misspelled
- * libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_preloaded_symbols): rewrite
- test, so as not to depend on the way global_symbol_pipe is
- initialized; the current test would get false positives, as
- global_symbol_pipe was initialized `x=""', not `x='
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): initialize filename if dir is NULL
- Reported by Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>
-
-1999-02-04 Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): missing space for terminator when
- allocating memory for shlib_ext
-
-1999-02-03 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): tmp would be trashed if shlib_ext
- was longer than 3 characters
-
-1999-02-02 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltconfig.in: new config.guess returns *-*-cygwin now instead of
- *-*-cygwin32. sed -e 's%\(cygwin\|mingw\)32%\1%g' ltconfig.in
- * ltmain.in: sed -e 's%\(cygwin\|mingw\)32%\1%g' ltmain.in
-
- * ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec, allow_undefined_flag,
- archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds, old_archive_from_new_cmds):
- removed duplication of config by assuming that `test $with_gcc =
- yes' implies gnu ld, otherwise MSVC++ (which I haven't tested
- since I inheritted the code from Ian Lance Taylor btw!) is implied.
-
-1999-01-28 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltmain.in: Reverted this change of Alexandre's from the
- 1999-01-25; "don't try to use .o instead of .lo just because
- there's no PIC flag. It loses if --disable-static, and there's
- not much point if we're referring to the same file anyway...",
- because not all linkers will accept .lo object names.
- * ltmain.in: In the case where --disable-static is specified (as
- noted in Alexandre's log entry), we just link some .o files to
- prevent the original error.
- Reported by Andrey Slepuhin <pooh@msu.ru>
-
-1999-01-27 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libtoolize.in: search for A[MC]_PROG_LIBTOOL, not
- AM_PROG_LIBTOOL
- Reported by Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
-
-1999-01-27 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * THANKS: Now that we have a policy, applied it to the existing
- list. This in no way demeans the work of those people removed
- from the THANKS file, who are still credited in the ChangeLogs and
- without who's work, libtool would not work so well on many
- platforms, but serves to highlight the outstanding and continued
- contribution the remaining people have made. And I quote, "We
- reserve THANKS for people who have made major contributions, and
- leave the credit to the others for the ChangeLog only."
-
- * THANKS: added Sam Vilain.
- * ltconfig.in ($echo): When using printf to replace echo the shell
- expands %s\n to %sn. Changed to use "%s\n" (with quotes).
- Reported by Sam Vilain <sam.vilain@nz.unisys.com>
-
-1999-01-27 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_file): fix endless loop condition
- (find_module): filename allocation was off by 1
-
- * libltdl/Makefile.am (distclean-local): renamed from
- distclean-hook, that didn't work
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen, non-.la): find_file now returns 0 on
- failure
-
- * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): some broken makes don't like
- macros in targets; replace $(srcdir) with @srcdir@
- * configure.in (ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST): same problem; expand $srcdir
-
- * libltdl/Makefile.am (@TOINST@/libltdl.la): if installation is
- enabled, create to-be-installed libltdl.la within @TOINST@
- directory
- (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): even if installation is enabled, build
- convenience libltdl.la, otherwise builds of random packages may
- fail if the user happens to enable installation
- (distclean-hook): wipe out $(TOINST)
- * libltdl/configure.in: set TOINST and LIBLIBS as appropriate;
- don't set NOINSTLIBS any more
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: use libltdl.la
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_file): oops, filenamesize was miscomputed
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_file): allocate filename dynamically
-
- * libltdl/configure.in (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): automake does not
- recognize it and fail, better keep using AM_PROG_LIBTOOL until the
- next release of automake
- * demo/configure.in, cdemo/configure.in: ditto
- * depdemo/configure.in, mdemo/configure.in: ditto
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: make all global strings char[], not char*; check
- that all calls to malloc() are properly cast
- (strdup, strchr, strrchr, trim, free_vars): declare as inline
- (find_module): allocate filename dynamically; support null dir
- (free_vars): free dir and name only if non-null
- (lt_dlopen): keep dir as NULL if not given; fix expression that
- calculated the size of name; only free and name if non-null
- (lt_dlopenext): allocate tmp dynamically
-
- * configure.in (pkgdatadir): expand ${PACKAGE} at configure-time,
- just like automake does
-
- * configure.in (pkgdatadir): define pkgdatadir explicitly, and
- comment that automake does not need it, but libtoolize does
-
- * Makefile.am (aclocaldir): do not set it explicitly, automake
- does already
-
- * configure.in (TIMESTAMP): use mkstamp here too
-
-1999-01-27 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * cdemo/configure.in: renamed AM_PROG_LIBTOOL to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
- * demo/configure.in: likewise
- * depdemo/configure.in: likewise
- * libltdl/configure.in: likewise
- * mdemo/configure.in: likewise
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: in find_module() check whether libdir is defined,
- tryall_dlopen(): move deallocation of an already opened handle
- to lt_dlopen(), allocate the directory in lt_dlopen() dynamically,
- minor cleanups, fixed memory leak (name)
- * libtool.m4: renamed all AM_ macros to AC_ and added aliases for
- compatibilty, updated AC_SYS_NM_PARSE (no undefined symbols,
- don't count the symbols)
- * ltconfig.in: added thread_safe_flag_spec (not used yet),
- added generic variable for linker options "linkopts" in
- all archive_cmds
- * ltmain.in: added -thread-safe flag (unused)
-
-1999-01-26 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (LTCONFIG_VERSION): damn!, adding TIMESTAMP doesn't
- always work, because then different ChangeLog timestamps fail to
- pass the version test. Instead of forcing both ltconfig and
- ltmain.sh to be updated every time ChangeLog changes, better
- revert it
-
- * ltconfig.in (LTCONFIG_VERSION): add TIMESTAMP, remove
- explicit quotes and add it to the list of variables to quote
-
- * ltmain.in: reworded `dropped inter-library dependencies'
- message, and added a warning about inter-library dependencies even
- for non-module builds
-
-1999-01-26 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * Makefile.am (install-data-hook): Don't show the if expression
- that tests for gzip with a conditional error message; just do it
- quietly and show the error if it fails, or the next action if it
- succeeds.
-
- * configure.in: It seems Alexandre accidentally removed the
- AC_SUBST(pkgdatadir) line recently which breaks libtoolize.
- Reverted that small change.
-
-1999-01-25 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): test old_name and dlname for NULL,
- not len==0
-
- * libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_objdir): yes, appending the "/"
- in configure.in was much simpler
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (objdir): ditto
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (objdir): string collation isn't portable; strcat
- "/" explicitly. Or should this be moved to configure.in?
-
-1999-01-25 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: allocate the variables in lt_dlopen() dynamically
-
-1999-01-25 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (file_magic): use egrep instead of expr to support
- more general regular expressions
- (file_regex): remove it; the name is misleading, it's not used
- anywhere, and probably will never be
- * ltconfig.in, doc/libtool.texi: ditto
- * ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*, deplibs_check_method): extend regex to
- support `LSB dynamic lib' in the output of `file'
- Reported by Scott D. Heavner <sdh@po.cwru.edu>
-
- * ltmain.in (dependency_libs, xrpath): add -R switches to
- dependency_libs only just before creating the .la file; they
- should not be passed to the C compiler or linker at
- library-creation time, since we don't know whether it is supported
-
- * ltconfig.in (freebsd2.2*, hardcode_minus_L): for FreeBSD 2.2.6,
- this must be `no'
-
- * mkstamp: move the sed script to extract revision and date
- information into a separate shell-script, so that we can break
- lines between commands; FreeBSD's sed doesn't like `;' after `t'
- Reported by Axel Thimm <Axel.Thimm@physik.fu-berlin.de>
- * Makefile.am: use mkstamp
- * THANKS: added Axel Thimm
-
- * ltmain.in: don't try to use .o instead of .lo just because
- there's no PIC flag. It loses if --disable-static, and there's
- not much point if we're referring to the same file anyway...
-
- * ltmain.in (pass_all=none, droppeddeps): set only if deplibs was
- non-empty
-
-1999-01-24 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: minor bugfixes, append a "/" the search
- directory only if necessary
- * ltconfig.in: added support for FreeBSD >= 3.0
- (patch from Kurt D. Zeilenga)
- * THANKS: added Kurt D. Zeilenga
-
-1999-01-24 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): list supported dlopen mechanisms,
- added function lt_dlopenext(), removed reference to
- LTDL_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS in LTDL_SET_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: partially reverted Alexandre's dynamic string
- allocation change (it was not necessary and the code was unreadable),
- cleanups, removed usr_search_path_size, renamed usr_search_path
- to user_search_path, in find_module() also check for moved
- modules, merged find_file() and find_library(),
- added lt_dlopenext(), in lt_dladdsearchdir() no longer reset
- the search path if 'search_dir' == NULL and don't use realloc()
- (might not be available on all platforms),
- removed __P((void)) in the declaration of lt_dlgetsearchpath()
- * libltdl/ltdl.h: added lt_dlopenext()
- * ltconfig.in: AIX archive commands were broken,
- fixed a MAJOR bug in global_symbol_pipe which caused
- "demo-shared.test;demo-make.test" to fail (libtool must not extract
- undefined symbols of libraries, i.e. symcode must not contain 'U')
- * tests/Makefile.am (clean-local): "make distclean" in cdemo, too
-
-1999-01-22 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): add ChangeLog Revision to
- TIMESTAMP
- * configure.in: get values of PACKAGE and VERSION set by
- AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, and extract only TIMESTAMP from the ChangeLog
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): if we're reusing a previously opened
- handle, don't reset its name nor add it to the list, and free the
- name we have allocated
- Reported by Edouard G. Parmelan <Edouard.Parmelan@France.NCR.COM>
-
- * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh, TIMESTAMP): let's not assume
- anything about the format of the date, just that it does not
- contain `$'
-
-1999-01-22 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * configure.in (date): echo the version number during
- configuration, and show $date for cvs versions.
-
- * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Oops. cvs co keyword
- expansion ate the sed expression! Changed sed separator to '%'
- because there are '/' in the date. Added missing '\(' to search
- expression. Inserted a null string to stop cvs from expanding it
- next time =)O|
- ($(srcdir)/ltmain.sh): ditto.
-
-1999-01-22 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * Makefile.am (TSDEPS_DIST): dist-time dependencies for timestamps
- (timestamps, update-timestamps): check whether TSDEPS_DIST are
- up-to-date and update ltconfig and ltmain.sh if needed
- (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): depend on TSDEPS; replace @TIMESTAMP@ with
- the Date tag in the ChangeLog
- (TSDEPS): empty unless overridden by update-timestamps
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (TIMESTAMP): append timestamp to most
- references to VERSION
-
-1999-01-22 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltmain.in (ild): Revert the change which allowed libtool to
- link libraries with dependencies on .la libs.
- * NEWS: Removed reference to win32, incase 1.3 ships before
- ild is ready.
- * doc/PLATFORMS: Removed i686-pc-cygwin32, for the same reason.
- * doc/libtool.texi: Removed win32 refs, for the same reason.
-
-1999-01-22 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (Xsed): add 1 to Xsed definition that goes into
- temporary wrapper scripts
- * libtool.m4: we don't have Xsed here, expand it manually
- Reported by Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>
-
-1999-01-22 Edouard G. Parmelan <Edouard.Parmelan@France.NCR.COM>
-
- * ltmain.in (finalize_hardcode_libdirs, finalize_rpath): in
- platforms that use -rpath, programs must be finalized at
- installation time, otherwise build-tree programs will
- prefer installed libraries over build-tree ones
-
-1999-01-22 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * mdemo/Makefile.am (../libltdl/libtool): if it does not exist,
- the sub-make for libltdlc.la will take care of it, but we must at
- least provide an empty rule for it, otherwise the sub-make will
- never run
-
- * demo/configure.in, demo/Makefile.am (DLPREOPEN): reverted; it
- didn't make any difference.
-
-1999-01-21 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * THANKS: Added Chris Laas <golem@MIT.EDU>
-
- From Chris Laas <golem@MIT.EDU>
- * ltmain.in (compile): corrected a typo in compile mode which
- caused "gcc: unrecognized option -c-fPIC" errors due to a missing
- space.
-
-1999-01-21 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libltdl/configure.in: reintroduce code to detect native library
- extension
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): if a .la file name is given, that's
- all. Otherwise, lt_dlopen now tries to append .la first. If this
- fails, it tries the given filename, and, at last, tries to append
- the native library extension to the given filename.
- * doc/libtool.texi (lt_dlopen): explain new lookup strategy
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: major rewrite to avoid almost all fixed-size
- buffers; only `tmp' in lt_dlopen remained. But the code got ugly
- :-(
-
- * ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*, finish_cmds): remove erroneous backslash
-
- * demo/configure.in: set DLPREOPEN to -dlopen if we don't have
- shared libraries
- * demo/Makefile.am (DLPREOPEN): use instead of -dlpreopen
- (STATIC): use $(STATIC), not @STATIC@
- * mdemo/Makefile.am (STATIC): ditto
-
- * tests/demo-shared.test, tests/demo-static.test: new tests
- * tests/mdemo-shared.test, tests/mdemo-static.test: ditto
- * tests/Makefile.am: ditto
- * doc/libtool.texi: document them
- * demo/Makefile.am, mdemo/Makefile.am (STATIC): do not use
- -static unconditionally, it can't work with --disable-static
- * demo/configure.in, mdemo/configure.in: check whether libtool was
- configured to build static libraries and, if not, set STATIC to an
- empty string
-
-1999-01-20 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (module, droppeddeps): if libtool could not satisfy
- all dependencies of a module, it will only build a static version
- of it, and display a warning message
-
-1999-01-20 Erez Zadok <ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (aix4*, with_gcc, archive_cmds): fix typo in Andrey
- Slepuhin's last patch
-
-1999-01-20 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * Makefile.am (@DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST@): work around Ultrix /bin/sh bug
- * tests/nomode.test (must specify a MODE): ditto

- * doc/PLATFORMS: updates for sunos4/m68k and aix
-
-1999-01-20 Andrey Slepuhin <pooh@msu.ru>
-

- -bnoentry option to linker when building a shared library
-
-1999-01-20 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-

- * libltdl/ltdl.c (!HAVE_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS, lt_preloaded_symbols):
- define it to an empty list if libtool won't generate it, so as to
- avoid link errors. This will cause silent dlopening failures, but
- maybe this is better than failing to link the program...
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.h (LTDL_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS): remove it; better to
- declare lt_preloaded_symbols

- (but not dlpreopened ones) after all explicitly linked libraries
-
- * ltconfig.in (need_lib_prefix, need_version,
- deplibs_check_method): default to unknown, so that we're
- remembered that this needs porting; unknown is interpreted as yes,
- yes and none, respectively
- (freebsd2*, freebsd3*, sunos4*, need_version): set to yes

- without arguments, that calls lt_dlpreopen_default_ with
- lt_dlpreloaded_symbols
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlpreopen_default_): renamed from

-
-1999-01-14 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-

- the call of automake, so that ltconfig and ltmain.sh
- are included in the distribution
- * ltconfig.in: when checking whether PIC is supported assume
- only on HP/UX that warnings during compilation mean that

- environment.
- * ltconfig.in: Use PATH_SEPARATOR instead of hardcoded `:'.
- Reported by Mark Elbrecht <snowball3@usa.net>
-
- * cdemo/README: typo: mdemo->cdemo
-
-1999-01-14 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * autogen: fake the libtool scripts to help fixing
- the bootstrapping problem
- * Makefile.am: always configure libltdl, however after building
- the libtool scripts,
- build the libtool scripts in builddir, not srcdir
- (unfortunately this breaks building when srcdir!=objdir,
- but it was just plain wrong - needs to be fixed),
- build and install libltdl.tar.gz,
- copy acinclude.m4 instead of linking them, so that we
- can 'make dist' in libltdl,
- fixed configuring of subdirectories
- * configure.in: removed --enable-ltdl-install - libltdl is supposed
- to be installed by packages, not by libtool itself
- * libtoolize.in: new flags --ltdl and --ltdl-tar to install libltdl
- in packages (--ltdl doesn't work yet),
- install only the necessary libtool scripts, not just all
- files in pkgdatadir
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: removed the rule for libltdl configuration
-
-1999-01-13 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

- * libltdl/ltdl.h: removed lt_dlpreopen_default()
- * ltconfig.in (dlpreopen): removed dld_preloaded_symbol_count

- * mail/deplibs.html: added Gordon Matzigkeit's inter-library
- dependencies article
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: removed -export-dynamic from LDFLAGS

- * ltconfig.in (solaris): Define `deplibs_check_method',
- `file_magic_command', `need_lib_prefix' and `sys_lib_search_path'
- * ltmain.in (file_magic_regex): Add space before matching pattern,
- such that it works on solaris (solaris has a tab between the
- library name (including the colon) and the `ELF' and such the
- `ELF' will never be matched).
-
-1999-01-13 Edouard G. Parmelan <Edouard.Parmelan@France.NCR.COM>
-
- * ltconfig.in (NM): PATH search was not updated like in
- libtool.m4, in last Alexandre Oliva's change to it

- system-dependent extension of shared libraries
- (libltdl_cv_shlibpath_var, LTDL_SHLIBPATH_VAR): system-dependent
- run-time shared library search path
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (dldpre_init, dldpre_exit): unrelate init/exit
- from add/remove symlists, so one may add dld_preloaded_symbols
- from main(), when only a library will call dldpre_init
- (lt_dlopen): use LTDL_SHLIBPATH_VAR, if defined, as secondary
- search path. Also, if a requested .la file cannot be found, try
- with the LTDL_SHLIB_EXTension instead.
-
- * ltmain.in (old_archives, oldobjs): use find to SYMDEF here too
-
- * Makefile.am (@DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST@): `$' must be doubled
-
- * configure.in (AC_CONFIG_DIRS): configure only libltdl, and then,
- only if --enable-ltdl-install

- configure.
- On-demand configuration of subdirs at distribution time was
- suggested by Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): search for NM in PATH before
- /usr/ccs/bin, /usr/ucb and /bin. However, if the found one isn't
- BSD-compat keep searching. If no BSD-compat is found, use the
- first we found.

- libraries, and noted that libtool can be used to link with them;
- documented that -rpath is not required for convenience libraries
-
- * ltconfig.in (symxfrm): don't print $pipe_works twice, once for
- each $ac_symprfx
- Reported by Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>
-
- * ltmain.in (convenience, libobjs): get only .o and .lo files from
- the files extract from the convenience library. Some systems,
- such as FreeBSD2, will add a SYMDEF file, that is not an object
- file, and therefore should not be fed to the linker
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_NM_PARSE): while we are at it, we may well
- cache the value of ac_cv_sys_symbol_underscore
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_NM_PARSE): need for underscore prefix is now
- auto-detected, by trying first without, then with it.

- commented out
- (SUBDIRS): add $(BUILT_LTDL)
- * libltdl/Makefile.am (EXTRA_LTLIBRARIES): add libtest.la, the
- same as libltdl but always a convenience library. Not built by
- default. Both libraries now depend on the libtool script, that

- * mdemo/Makefile.am (mdemo, mdemo.debug): depend on and link with
- ../libltdl/libtest.la, that is rebuilt if needed
- (mdemo_LDADD): removed $(LIBADD_M), to avoid silent failures
- (foo1.la): renamed from libfoo1.la; test removing the lib prefix

- (LT_SYMBOL_LENGTH): renamed from MAX_SYMBOL_LENGTH
- (LT_SYMBOL_OVERHEAD): new macro, that accounts for the size of
- the _LTX_ separator and the initial underscore
- (lt_dlsym): sym now points to a stack buffer (lsym) if possible,
- or is dynamically allocated. If allocation fails, a
- buffer_overflow_error is returned.
-
-1999-01-10 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-

-
-1999-01-09 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

-1999-01-09 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * NEWS: support for BSD/OS 4.x was not documented
- * demo/Makefile.am: link against libm only if available
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: likewise, use -avoid-versioning flag
- instead of -avoid-version (typo)
- * demo/configure.in: check for libm, string.h and math.h
- * mdemo/configure.in: likewise
- * depdemo/configure.in: check for libm and math.h
- * libltdl/configure.in: check for dlerror
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: check for buffer overflows, implemented
- dlerror, fixed a severe bug which occured when opening
- non-libtool modules, dlopen with the flags GLOBAL and NOW
- * mdemo/main.c: report the error using lt_dlerror()
-
-1999-01-08 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * doc/libtool.texi (old_archive_from_new_commands): Documented
- this ltcofig variable.
-
-1999-01-07 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltmain.sh (cygwin, allow_undefined): Unfortunately, there are
- problems with this variable when trying to make a dll which has
- undefined symbols, in which case not even a static library is
- built. For now, we need to specify -no-undefined on the libtool
- link line when we can be certain that all symbols are satisfied,
- otherwise we get a static library.
-
-1999-01-06 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ChangeLog: merged in tests/ChangeLog
- * tests/ChangeLog: deleted
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: assigned copyright to the FSF
- * libltdl/ltdl.h, mdemo/foo*,main.c: likewise
-
-1999-01-06 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltmain.in (dllsearchpath): add absolute directory paths to
- dllsearchpath so that the wrapper scripts can be called from any
- directory (e.g. tests) on cygwin.
-
- * ltconfig.in (cygwin, library_names_spec): revert Alexandre's
- change from yesterday to use `-dll.a' suffix. That change caused
- $libname-dll.a to be a symlink to $soname, which isn't even an
- `ar' archive. Before the import library suffix can be changed, we
- need to figure out how to handle building objects differently for
- linking with an import library versus an equivalent static library.
-
- * TODO: Added details of a Linux wrapper script bug.
- Reported by Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>.
-
-1999-01-05 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (libobjs_save, oldobjs): when building an
- old-fashioned archive, use a copy of libobjs saved before
- convenience libraries are appended
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.h (_LTDLL_EXPORT, _LTDLL_IMPORT): use cygwin or
- unix library import/export primitives; this may be convenient for
- people willing to create DLLs
- (_LTDLL_EXTERN): select _LTDLL_EXPORT or _LTDLL_IMPORT depending
- on _LTDL_COMPILE_
- * libltdl/ltdl.h, libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlpreopen): new function,
- that replaces the current preloaded_symbols list with its
- argument, and returns the old value, initially NULL
- (dldpre_init): don't refer to dld_preloaded_symbols any more
- (dldpre_open, dldpre_sym): search preloaded_symbols
- (lt_dlpreopen_default): call lt_dlpreopen with
- dld_preloaded_symbols, that is declared as extern; it should be
- called from the main program or from some static library without
- -no-undefined
- (lt_dlerror): new function, that returns the error message for the
- last error occurred; the error message is kept in the static
- variable last_error
- * libltdl/configure.in (enable-ltdl-install): moved back from
- enable-install; other packages might use enable-install already,
- better have fine grained control over this.
- * libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdls.la): discarded
-
-1999-01-05 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * configure.in: do not configure libltdl by default
- * Makefile.am: do not build libltdl by default
- * libltdl/Makefile.am: ltdls.lo depends on libtool
- * tests/Makefile.am: before starting the tests
- make sure that libtool was build
- * tests/mdemo-conf.test: configure libltdl
- * tests/mdemo-make.test: build libltdl
-
-1999-01-05 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (SP2NL, NL2SP): Don't delete empty lines, as this
- would lose for files with embedded blanks.
-
- * ltconfig.in (cygwin, archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds): Moved
- ltdll.c into ltmain.in, to avoid its duplication, and added a sed
- script to extract it. Also, create def and base files in $objdir,
- and don't remove them after the compilation.
- (cygwin, library_names_spec): Create static part of the dll with
- suffix -dll.a, to avoid conflicts with actual static libraries.
- * ltmain.in: Added ltdll.c, as commented out text
-
-1999-01-01 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * NEWS: new BeOS support
- * THANKS: added Joseph Beckenbach
- * libltdl/ltdl.h: use dllimport/export on Win32
-
-1998-12-31 Joseph Beckenbach III <jrb3@best.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: added support for BeOS
- * ltmain.in (shlibpath_var): added a workaround for
- an odd bug in the BeOS R4 sed
-
-1998-12-31 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * verified all copyright notices
- and updated them to 1999
- * TODO: added some things that need to documented
- * doc/libtool.texi: -export-symbols is not
- supported on all platforms
- * doc/PLATFORMS: added a few new platforms
-
-1998-12-30 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * NEWS: updated
- * THANKS: added Todd Vierling <tv@pobox.com>
-
-1998-12-30 Todd Vierling <tv@pobox.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: improved shared object handling on both
- a.out and ELF platforms for NetBSD
-
-1998-12-29 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltconfig.in: do not rely on a leading space when concatenating
- variables as suggested by Erez Zadok
- * ltmain.in: likewise
- * doc/PLATFORMS: updated and reformatted
- (thanks to Erez Zadok for the testing)
-
-1998-12-27 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * THANKS: added Erez Zadok <ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu>
-
-1998-12-26 Erez Zadok <ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: support i486-ncr-sysv4.3.03
- shared libraries.
-
- * ltmain.in: before every ln -s, remove the link name
-
-1998-12-25 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * depdemo/configure.in: removed last relics of demo
- * depdemo/sysdep.h: ditto
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: ditto
- * libltdl/Makefile.am: fixed the version number, build libltdls if
- -enable-install and -enable-dlpreopen are enabled
- * libltdl/configure.in: libltdl is version 0.1, not 1.0,
- renamed -enable-ltdl-install to -enable-install,
- conditionals for libltdls, check for strchr and index,
- replaced NULL with 0
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: replaced NULL with 0, dlpreopen only if
- USE_DLPREOPEN was defined, integrated shl_load code from GModule
- (still untested)
-
-1998-12-24 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * libltdl/configure.in: fixup spacing in --enable-ltdl-install
- help string so that it lines up nicely for configure --help.
-
- * ltmain.in (dllsearchpath): keep track of what the dll search path
- will need to be in the wrapper scripts as deplibs are calculated.
- Make sure the wrapper script doesn't end in `.exr', which makes
- win32 try to execute it as a binary!
- Add the contents of dllsearchpath to $PATH in the wrapper script.
- Use the relative path to the wrapped program so that the dll
- search path is calculated properly by win32 OSes.
- * TODO: removed the item for making wrapper scripts work on win32.
-
- * TODO: removed the reference to making libltdl and demo work on
- win32. They *do* work now that wrapper scripts are functioning.
-
- * ltmain.in (file_magic_command): It turns out that if the
- file_magic_command generates huge output (e.g. running `objdump
- -f' over a large import lib [say libX11.a]) the expr to check it
- against the file_magic_regex blows up. There is now an optimistic
- heuristic, to save only the first 10 lines of running
- file_magic_command which (at risk of sounding like Bill) should be
- enough for anyone =)O|.
-
- * ltmain.in: Set the compile_dependencylibs and dllsearchpath for
- non-libtool libs, or else libdeps only works between ltlibs for
- cygwin32.
-
-1998-12-23 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (SP2NL, NL2SP): use `tr' magic to avoid passing very
- long lines to sed
- * doc/libtool.texi (sed): very long lines are no longer a problem
-
- * libltdl/Makefile.am: install libltdl conditionally...
- * libltdl/configure.in: ... if --enable-ltdl-install is issued
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: removed #ifdef DEBUG
- * mdemo/Makefile.am (mdemo_debug_LDADD, mdemo_debug_DEPENDENCIES):
- use libltdl.la
-
-1998-12-23 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * doc/PLATFORMS: added my cygwin32 box (i686-pc-cygwin32).
-
- * TODO: remind myself of the win32 tasks remaining.
-
- * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds,
- old_archive_from_new_cmds): Fixed a bug which left an a.exe in the
- build directory. Fixed a bug where $soname-def was never deleted.
-
- * ltconfig.in (file_magic_command): new variable holds the command
- (including any args) to run to generate the string to match
- against the regex in $file_magic. Use the variable where
- necessary. Added to libtool header output.
- (deplibs_check_method): use file_magic for win32, but compare the
- output of `objdump -f' with the regex (see below).
- (archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds): use compile_dependencylibs for
- each $CC invokation (see below).
-
- * ltmain.in: Set allow_undefined to `no' for win32 variants by
- default, otherwise it is impossible to link a dll without forcing
- the makefile maintainer to figure out whether to pass
- --no-undefined at every libtool invokation.
- (compile_dependencylibs): save the list of dependency library
- flags needed for a deplib build on win32.
- (link_against_libtool_libs): commented out the check for this; if
- it is left in, then ltlibs (i.e. *.la files) cannot be deplibs for
- subsequent links.
- Don't add -lc to the deplibs line for win32 platforms (which don't
- have a libc as such).
- (file_magic_command): use this to get some output to compare with
- the file_magic regex (instead of hardcoding `file' which doesn't
- exist on win32.
- * doc/libtool.texi (Porting inter-library dependencies): Updated
- to document the changes above.
-
- * ltconfig.in (deplibs_check_method): Changed the file_magic regex
- to match more linux variants. This is less lenient than Thomas
- Tanner's commit to fix the same problem below.
- Reported by Joel Klecker <espy@debian.org>
- * THANKS: added Joel Klecker <espy@debian.org>
-
-1998-12-23 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltconfig.in: fixed file-magic for Linux shared libraries
- * ltmain.in: removed the unused -force-static flag
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: added strchr, search modules in LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH,
- check whether actual module was already dlopened,
- read in preload_libs rather than dependency_libs
-
-1998-12-23 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * libltdl/Makefile.am: build two versions of libltdl:
- libltdl (support native dlopen if available, otherwise dlpreopen),
- libltdls (like libltdl, but always support for dlpreopen)
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: ditto
- * libltdl/configure.in: warn if dlopen is not supported
- * mdemo/Makefile.am (mdemo.debug): use libltdls
-
-1998-12-22 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltconfig.in: revert Thomas Tanners change to create all
- libraries without the `lib' prefix on win32, otherwise `gcc foo.c
- -lbar' can't find libbar.a.
-
-1998-12-22 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): prepend `.' to avoid am-recursive
- dependency hack
-
-1998-12-21 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltconfig.in: indentation is now 8 character wide tabs
- * ltmain.in: ditto
- * ChangeLog: ditto
- * ltmain.in: renamed check_shared_deplibs_method to
- deplibs_check_method (we_dont_want_too_long_variable_names :)
- * doc/libtool.texi (Porting inter-library dependencies): ditto
- * depdemo/.cvsignore: renamed hell* to depdemo*, added *.lo,*.la
- * mdemo/.cvsignore: ditto
-
-1998-12-21 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_NM_PARSE): apparently __ptr_t is predefined
- on some systems - use lt_ptr_t instead.
- * ltconfig.in: ditto.
- * ltmain.in: ditto.
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE): use an AC_SUBST to pass
- the result of this into the compile rather than AC_DEFINE which
- breaks when building with older versions of autoconf.
- * ltconfig.in (symxfrm): Don't put the leading underscore back
- with the global_symbol_pipe.
- * demo/dlmain.c (main): No need to specialcase underscores in
- dld_preloaded_symbols - it is fixed by symxfrm above!
- * libltdl/configure.in: use AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE from
- libtool.m4 rather than reinvent the wheel here =)O|
-
- * ltmain.in: Fix deplibs methods to not rely on a.out (cygwin
- uses a.exe!).
-
- * libltdl/configure.in: Cleanups - fix header comment and emacs
- local-vars.
-
- * demo/dlmain.c (win32_force_data_import_address): a nasty hack
- to force the address of imported data symbols into
- dld_preloaded_symbols on win32, which does data imports
- differently to function imports (sheesh!). This functionality
- needs to be moved into the dld_preloaded_symbols generation code.
- demo/helldl with static linking is broken on win32 by this change,
- probably until after libtool-1.3 =(O|
- * demo/foo.h: make sure __CYGWIN32__ is always defined on cygwin32
- systems. Use the correct __declspec macro for lib exports/imports
- on cygwin32.
- * demo/foo.c, demo/hello.c: Make sure we tell foo.h that these
- sources are inside libfoo, and want to export symbols.
-
-1998-12-20 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * autogen: configure demo, depdemo, libltdl and mdemo
- * tests/mdemo-exec.test: renamed hell* to mdemo*
- * tests/mdemo-inst.test: ditto
-
-1998-12-19 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * libltdl/Makefile.am: build a normal libtool library
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: get LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH but don't make use of it yet,
- some reformatting
- * ltmain.in: fixed a bug which listed symbols in
- dld_preloaded_symbols twice
- * TODO: removed symbol export lists and deplibs
-
-1998-12-18 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltconfig.in: added need_lib_prefix and need_version,
- which determine whether we must prefix modules with 'lib'
- and whether versioning is required for libraries.
- * ltmain.in: allow modules names without 'lib' prefix,
- new -avoid-versioning option
- * doc/libtool.texi (link flags): updated documentation for -module,
- added -avoid-versioning
- * doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents):
- documented the two new flags and archive_sym_cmds
- * doc/libtool.texi (tests):
- added (partially very short) documentation for assign.test,
- nomode.test, quote.test, sh.test
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: canonicalize module names,
- some cleanups and bugfixes, __ptr_t is predefined on
- some systems - use lt_ptr_t instead
- * mdemo/: renamed hell* to mdemo* (hell is already used in
- demo), updated the documentation, import sin and cos in main
- program rather than linking libfoo1 statically
-
-1998-12-17 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Added AC_PREREQ(2.12) to prevent
- people using libtool with old autoconfs that don't provide the
- features we need.
-
-1998-12-16 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * NEWS, configure.in, libtool.spec: Bumped to 1.2e for CVS
-
- * NEWS, configure.in, libtool.spec: Bumped to 1.2d for release
-
- * Makefile.am (cvs-dist): our release tags are in lower case
- (cvs-diff): ditto
- (EXTRA_DIST): added README-alpha
- * README-alpha: minor adaptations
- * demo/Makefile.am, mdemo/Makefile.am, depdemo/Makefile.am:
- removed comment about special needs for distribution
- * depdemo/Makefile.am: don't generate dependencies
- * depdemo/configure.in: modified version number
-
- * ltmain.in (-force-static, force_static): removed
- * libltdl/Makefile.am (CFLAGS): ditto
- * libltdl/configure.in: check for memory.h, rindex() and
- dlpreopening. Fixed NEED_USCORE caching policy.
- * libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlsym): make the name argument const
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (types): new variable: head of list of available
- dlopening mechanisms
- (lt_dltype_t): interface of a dlopening mechanism, with pointers
- to functions for init, exit, open, close and sym
- (lt_dlhandle_t): added pointer to interface type
- (strdup): don't name it strdup; it can be troublesome
- (strrchr): ditto; use rindex if available
- (LIBTOOL_STATIC): check HAVE_DLPREOPEN instead, and move to the
- end of the file, so that it becomes the header of the list
- (all): renamed all interface-implementation functions, to avoid
- name clashes, and created lt_dltype_t nodes for all of them
- (lt_dlinit): initialize all available interfaces; remove those
- that fail from the list. Return failure only if no interfaces
- could be initialized.
- (lt_dlexit): return number of failures
- (tryall_dlopen): try to open the library with all available
- interfaces
- (lt_dlopen): use tryall_dlopen; increased size of fixed buffers.
- We should probably make these bound-checked or dynamically
- allocated for the final release! Fix bug when filename did not
- contain slashes; should we check for `\\' too? Try old_library if
- everything else fails.
- (lt_dlclose): use the interface type for closing
- (lt_dlsym): make `symbol' const, use interface type for looking up
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: moved mdemo/modules/* back into mdemo
- (SUBDIRS): removed
- (libfoo2_la_LDFLAGS): added -static; nice test. However, since it
- causes -lm to linked into hell*, it causes tests that should fail
- to pass
- (noinst_HEADERS): no need to install foo.h
- * mdemo/configure.in: remove modules/Makefile
- tests/mdemo-exec.test: updated accordingly
-
- * NEWS: Added Thomas Tanner and Gary V. Vaughan to the list of new
- maintainers. Detailed expected failures of libtldl+mdemo. Listed
- recent ports. Added full URL for the home page. Note that
- libtool C program is unusable.

-
- * ltmain.in (-DSTATIC): changed to -DLIBTOOL_STATIC, and defined
- only for -force-static; it should be removed soon, before people
- start to use it
-
- * configure.in (AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS): added libltdl
- * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): build libltdl by default
- (DIST_SUBDIRS): simplify distribution of demo and mdemo

- srcdir where appropriate
- (ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST): new rule for maintaining links from
- acinclude.m4 to libtool.m4
- (*demo/Makefile.in): don't update autoconf/automake files any
- more; make check is needed
-
-1998-12-14 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): tweaked for cygwin b18->b20.1
- compatibility and fixed a bug with generating the export
- definitions file. This is only tested on b20.1, but should
- work back to b18 at least.
-
-1998-12-11 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltmain.in: -module implies now -export-dynamic,
- dlpreopen files if we're linking statically
- * doc/libtool.texi (link flags): added documentation for -module
- and the tests for mdemo and libltdl
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: replaced -dlpreopen with -dlopen
-
-1998-12-09 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * PORTING: removed the text Akim Demaille converted to .texi
-
-1998-12-09 Akim Demaille <demaille@inf.enst.fr>
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: converted inter-library dependencies
- instructions from PORTING
-
-1998-12-09 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (convenience, deplibs): propagate dependencies
- * libltdl/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): don't install ltdl.h yet
- (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): ditto for libltdl.la
-
-1998-12-08 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * README-alpha: adapted the release procedure from
- automake/HACKING.
- * Makefile.am: adapted the cvs-dist and cvs-diff rules from
- automake/Makefile.am. I guess this is probably safe to use
- already, but I didn't test it as it tags the CVS tree. If
- it needs tweaking, we'll find out come 1.2d.
-
-1998-12-08 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltconfig.in: fixed some typos in archive_sym_cmds
- * ltmain.in: replaced basename with a sed expression
-
-1998-12-07 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * configure.in: we no longer use PRCS
-
- * doc/libtool.texi (author): listed all the AUTHORS
- (Dlopen issues): added reference to libltdl, still undocumented
- (C++ libraries): it's not *that* simple, after all :-(
- (Inter-library dependencies): they're back!
-
-1998-12-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libtool.m4 (ac_cv_sys_symbol_underscore): `test a == b' doesn't
- work, use `test a = b' instead

- * ltconfig.in: new variable sys_lib_search_path for searching
- of installed libraries, export archive_sym_cmds and
- sys_lib_search_path
- * ltmain.in: use sys_lib_search_path, removed extradeplibs
- (they're not portable)
-
-1998-12-02 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * libltdl/configure.in: look for string.h or else strings.h, and
- also check for ANSI strrchr() function. Fix `undescore before
- symbols' macro to not rely on a.out (cygwin uses a.exe!). Fix
- `underscore for dlsym' to set cache variable properly, not just in
- environment of AC_DEFINE(NEED_USCORE).
- * libltdl/ltdl.h (__ptr_t): for K&R compatibility using char*.
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (strrchr): fallback function incase none is

-1998-12-01 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltconfig.in: added -export-symbols support for GNU ld and
- Solaris (untested), archive_sym_cmds for -export-symbols

- independent from -export-dynamic and does not work for modules
- anymore
- * ltmain.in: added some checks for -export-symbols
- * mdemo/modules/Makefile.am: replaced -export-symbols with
- -export-dynamic since it doesn't work for modules
-
-1998-12-01 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * README: Updated homepage pointer to gnu libtool page.
-
- * ltconfig.in (ltdll.c): update the ltdll.c file for cygwinb20.
- Based on code from Mumit Khan <khan@xraylith.wisc.edu>.

-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE): New macro; find out
- whether compiled symbols have an extra leading underscore.

-
-1998-11-27 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * libtool (AM_PROG_LD): Oops... we need to know the host_os for
- the changes below. I'm not sure whether mingw32 and os2 support
- UNC paths, if they did we wouldn't need the check, we could use
- UNC paths on all three; or if the bug with $LD not being
- shell-meta escaped was fixed, we could use '\\' separators on all
- three. AC_REQUIRE'ed AC_CANONICAL_HOST.
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD): Cannonicalize the absolute path for the
- ld program; The order is funny to provide canonicalization to
- paths with '\\' separators as well as '/'.
- * ltconfig.in: ditto.
-
- * AUTHORS: Added myself as a co-maintainer.
-
- * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): The `;\' in a compound statement is
- expanded wrongly for cygwin32, mingw32, aix3 and aix4. Changed to
- `;'.
-
-1998-11-25 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

-
-1998-11-21 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: replace NULL with 0, so that we don't depend on
- header files defining it.
-
- * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, osf3, osf4, solaris, sunos4): create
- libraries with gcc -shared if using gcc without GNU ld.
-
- * ltconfig.in: replaced occurrences of solaris2 with solaris, to
- prepare for Solaris 7
-
-1998-11-19 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

- * ltmain.in: missing `test' between `&&' and `"$module"'
-
- * ltconfig.in (echo_test_string): the whole ltconfig script was
- too much for DU4.0's ksh, but the first 50 lines will be enough.
-
- * ltmain.in (installed): new variable defined within a .la file,
- so that libtool can now link already-installed libraries into a
- program.

- * doc/libtool.texi (Linking executables): document it
-

-
- * NEWS: -module and libtldl
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: ../libltdl is within $(srcdir)
-
-1998-11-18 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * libltdl, Makefile.am: added libltdl (a system independent
- dlopen wrapper library extracted from mdemo)
- * ltmain.in: added -module flag for compiling and linking of
- modules. If enabled it compiles always both .o (with -DLT_RENAME)
- and .lo files

- * tests/ltdl*: added tests for libltdl
-
-1998-11-16 Steve Price <sprice@hiwaay.net>
-
- * ltconfig.in: when $host_os is freebsd[23]* determine whether
- the current linker format is a.out or ELF
- * ltmain.in: add two new $version_type's, freebsd-aout and
- freebsd-elf, to support above change

- -fno-exceptions in case we compile with a gcc, that supports
- this options (egcs and gcc >= 2.8)
-
-1998-11-16 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (C_compiler): copy $CC before it is overwritten with
- command-line compiler, so that we can use it to compile C sources
- generated during the build. This fixes the problem that showed up
- with -export-dynamic of C++ programs in egcs 1.1.
- * NEWS: ditto
-
-1998-11-12 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * PORTING: Porting instructions are in the libtool manual already
-
- * NEWS: Mention -export-symbols and new dlpreopen
-
-1998-11-11 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (IFS): revert Gary's patch when parsing version
- information; we still use `:' here :-)
-
- * NEWS: updated
- * PORTING: new file, with general instructions and inter-library
- dependencies tips
-
-1998-11-11 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltconfig.in: make use of '~' field separator in reload_cmds,
- old_archive_from_new_cmds, old_archive_cmds, archive_cmds,
- old_postinstall_cmds, postinstall_cmds, old_postuninstall_cmds,
- postuninstall_cmds and finish_cmds, so that the semi-colons inside
- if/then/else/fi and for/do/done etc. do not break the eval loop in
- ltmain.in (below).
- * ltmain.in: changed all of the eval loops to use an IFS of `~',
- to allow differentiation between the end-of-statement-;
- (now `~' is used) and end-of-substatement-; (still `;'). This
- fixes AIX and win32 at least.
-
-1998-11-11 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

-
- * ltconfig.in (aix3, aix4): uniquify symbol names in archive_cmds
-
-1998-11-07 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in: add --falback-echo, to be used if everything else
- fails. The tests now check the behavior of $echo for very large
- strings, because some echo commands would just core dump (e.g.,
- Solaris' printf). If too large strings fail, smaller ones are
- tested.
- (ltecho): arrange that, if the --fallback-echo method is selected,
- echo will be defined in the libtool script so as to re-run itself,
- not ltconfig
- * ltmain.in: add --fallback-echo
- (qecho) ensure that, if --falback-echo is being used, qecho is
- defined with the full pathname of the libtool script
-
- * tests/sh.test (test X): ensure that the double-quote supposed to be
- reported is really reported
-

-1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Add objext and libext variables. Check for object
- suffix. Check for mingw32* as well as cygwin32*. Use objext when
- testing compiler. Add support for Visual C++ on cygwin32 when not
- using gcc. Add objext, libext, and fix_srcfile_path to generated
- libtool script.
- * ltmain.in: Use .${objext} rather than .o. Use fix_srcfile_path
- if it is set. Check for .obj as well as for .o, and for .lib as
- well as for .a. Use .${libext} rather than .a when creating old
- libraries.
- * libtoolize.in: Change initial /bin/sh to @SHELL@.
- * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Add AC_REQUIRE for
- AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, so that autoconf doesn't get mixed up by the
- AC_REQUIRE in AC_CHECK_TOOL.
-
-1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Look in the right directory for libtool.c in

-
-1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>

-
-1998-11-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (hardcode_minus_L): Revert Ian's patch for
- ltconfig.in. Although -L hardcoding is not used with GNU ld, it
- does happen, so hardcode_minus_L must be set to yes.
-
- * ltconfig.in (compiler_o_lo): check whether we can write directly
- to a .lo
-
- * ltmain.in (compiler_o_lo): if not, write to .o and rename it

-1998-11-03 Eric Estievenart <eric@via.ecp.fr>
-
- * ltmain.in (output_obj): typo
-
-1998-11-02 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: For sunos4, add ${libname}.so$versuffix to
- library_names_spec.

-1998-11-02 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (libobj): default value must not contain directory
- components
-
-1998-11-02 Eric Estievenart <eric@via.ecp.fr>
-

- -c and -o flags, create a variable compiler_c_o. Also issue
- a big warning if it is not supported
-
- * ltmain.in (compile): enable the -o option as input for libtool.
- The objects are not moved if the compiler supports -o with -c.
- Sources and objects can contain relative directories.
- (link): enable the linking of executables into relative directories
-

- suggested by Robert Lipe <robertl@dgii.com>
-
-1998-10-31 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@trick.fig.org>

-
-1998-05-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in (compile): Don't have `-static' turn off libtool
- libraries, so that people can use it just to guarantee that `.o'
- files exist. Suggested by David Mosberger-Tang.
-
-1998-05-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Possibly reexec the shell from within the
- wrapper script.
- Allow `-version-info' and `-release' to coexist again. If people

- version strings rather than 0.0.0. When making library symlinks,
- avoid making a symlink if the name would be the same.
-
-1998-04-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Support `unsupported' as a hardcode_action.
- Reported by Lars Hecking.
- (lib_linked): Do some sanity checking to make sure that we
- actually do link libtool libraries into the program to prevent the
- above problem from happening again.
-
-1998-04-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in: Maybe reexec under $SHELL, if $echo doesn't work.

-
-1998-04-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>

- config.log, so that configure doesn't clobber the messages that
- ltconfig put there. From David Taylor.
-
-1998-04-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): Try using `$CC -shared' when
- configuring for GCC under irix5 and irix6. From Wolfram Gloger.
- (ofile): Add `--output' flag to change the name of the generated
- libtool. Suggested by Wolfram Gloger.
-
-1998-04-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in: Remove all hardcoded references to ltmain.in in
- favour of $PACKAGE and $PROGRAM.

-
- * libtool.m4: Pass ltconfig the undocumented --no-reexec flag,
- since we call it explicitly using CONFIG_SHELL.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Restart the script under a different shell if
- CONFIG_SHELL is not /bin/sh. This way, people can use Bash if
- they don't have a working echo program.
-
- * ltmain.in, ltconfig.in: Use $SHELL instead of /bin/sh when
- generating executable scripts.
-
- * libtoolize.in, ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Implement the `--debug'
- flag to begin shell tracing.
-
- * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): Don't use `gcc -shared', even if we
- have GNU ld. Reported by Robert S. Maier.
-
-1998-04-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): Create more than just a null C file, so
- that the SunPRO 4.2 cc doesn't complain. From Bob Friesenhahn.
- (gnu_ld_acts_native): Delete this variable. There is just too
- much version skew to try to pretend GNU ld is the same as the
- system ld. Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.
- (hardcode_action): Don't bother relinking or aborting on systems
- that are too dynamic to have a consistent hardcode method.
- Reported by Doug Winterburn.

-1998-03-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: A little proofreading. From Albert
- Chin-A-Young.
-
-1998-03-23 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Treat HP-UX 11 just like HP-UX 10. From Jeff Law.
-
-1998-03-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in (reload_flag): Correct a tiny bug where `--silent'
- would still print out the reload flag. From Stephan Kulow.
-
-1998-03-20 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
-
- * libtool.m4: Use changequote to avoid problems with square
- bracket patterns.
-
-1998-03-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * Release 1.2.
-
-1998-03-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in: Rearrange some of the echos to make them more
- consistent.
-
-1998-03-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in: Break up an echo command that causes Solaris printf
- to dump core. Apparently the Solaris people hardcoded a 2110-byte
- buffer into their printf(1). Feh. From John Judge.
-
-1998-03-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Change the test for the PIC compiler flag so that
- we assume it doesn't work if there are any warning messages. This
- fixes a bug using old GCC's on HP-UX. Reported by Akim Demaille.
-
-1998-03-10 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>
-
- * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Remove bogus command to create
- a file ltconfig in the build directory.
-
-1998-03-09 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>
-
- * ltmain.in: Avoid unnecessary use of command substitution,
- replacing foo=`eval \\$echo \"$mumble\"` by eval foo=\"$mumble\".
-
- (link): Use ${1+"$@"} in wrapper scripts in order to pass
- arguments safely to a program.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Use -fpic instead of -fPIC if $host_cpu matches
- m68*.
-
-1998-03-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * Release 1.1.
-
- * ltmain.in: <sigh> I like `here documents' a lot, but apparently
- they are so badly handled by old and buggy /bin/sh's, that
- replacing `cat <<EOF ... EOF' by `$echo "..."' improves libtool's
- speed by a factor of 5. So, I've eliminated here docs from the
- all-important ltmain.in. From Tom Lane.
-
- * tests/tlibtool: Eliminate from distribution.
-
- * tests/defs (libtool): Don't use tlibtool anymore, since we can now use
- the generated libtool directly.
-
-1998-03-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Copy the contents of ltmain.sh into the generated
- libtool. This should more than halve the execution times on old
- or buggy /bin/sh systems, such as HP-UX 9 and SunOS 4.1.4. From
- Tom Lane.
-
-1998-03-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): Add support for
- the `default' package, so that people can control unnamed
- packages.
- (LD): Only add an ABI flag under IRIX 6.x, since IRIX 5.x doesn't
- support them. From Alexandre Oliva.
-
-1998-03-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Port to UnixWare 2.x. From Christopher Olsen.
-
-1998-02-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in (compile): For consistency, honour the `-static' flag
- during compilation.
-
-1998-02-23 Brendan Kehoe <brendan@cygnus.com>
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): For
- --enable-shared, heed the value of $PACKAGE from AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
- if given as the argument for the library to be built shared.
-
-1998-02-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Fix up a typo confusion between
- $ac_dir and $dir. Reported by Akim Demaille.
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Don't allow both `-version-info' and
- `-release'. Reported by Danny Backx.
-
-1998-02-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * Makefile.am (noinst_SCRIPTS): Remove lineno from distribution.
-
- * lineno: Remove from distribution, as it is no longer needed.
-
- * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig.in, $(srcdir)/ltmain.sh):
- Rewrite these rules not to use config.status or lineno. This
- makes things simpler, and reduces dependencies, so that the
- scripts are rebuilt and installed in srcdir only when necessary.
- Reported by Stephan Kulow.
-
- * tests/sh.test (scripts): Remove the lineno script, since it is no
- longer distributed.
-
- * tests/assign.test, if.test, test-e.test: Even though 15 tests looks
- impressive, these are now redundant. Remove them from the
- distribution.
-
- * tests/sh.test: Do what assign.test, if.test, and test-e.test used to
- do.
-
-1998-02-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * libtool.m4, ltmain.in, ltconfig.in: Correctly identify absolute
- directory names on MS-DOS. Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in, libtool.m4: Change a bunch of `sed N!d'
- commands to `sed Nq', for efficiency.
-
- * ltmain.in: Only egrep the first few lines of files in order to
- determine if they were libtool-generated. This prevents egrep(1)
- from taking forever to look at a 10MB binary on Solaris. From
- Stephan Kulow.
-
- * tests/defs: Correctly identify absolute directory names on MS-DOS.
- Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.
-
-1998-02-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in (no_undefined_flag): Add a flag to declare under
- Solaris that the library should not have any undefined
- references. Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.
-
- * ltmain.in (mkdir): Fix one more mkdir race. From H.J. Lu.
-
-1998-02-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (striplib, old_striplib): Ditto.
-
- * ltconfig.in (profile_flag_pattern): Get rid of dead code.
-
-1998-02-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): New macros to
- modify the `--enable-shared' and `--enable-static' defaults in the
- configure script. This works a lot better than the old
- `enable_shared' and `enable_static' variables did. Reported by
- Bob Friesenhahn.
-
- * tests/suffix.test (extensions): Added GNAT (GNU Ada Translator)
- suffices, `.ada', `.ads', `.adb'. From Samuel Tardieu.
-
-1998-02-07 Samuel Tardieu <sam@inf.enst.fr>
-
- * ltmain.in: Recognize .ada, .ads and .adb as known suffixes (they
- are used by GNAT, the GNU Ada compiler).
-
-1998-02-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Turn on IRIX shared libraries again!
-
- * libtool.m4 (LD): Use file(1) to discover which ABI we're using
- on IRIX, and propagate the correct linker flag. From Jim Wilson.
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (Xsed): `arg=-n; echo "$arg" | sed ...'
- gives problems, because the `-n' is interpreted as an option to
- echo(1). So, use `echo "X$arg" | sed -e 's/^X//' ...' everywhere,
- via the $Xsed convenience variable. Suggested by H.J. Lu.
-
-1998-02-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Turn off IRIX shared library support until 32-bit
- and 64-bit ABI differences can be resolved.
-
-1998-01-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * libtool.m4 (LD): Reverse yesterday's change because `-old_ld'
- isn't accepted by GCC.
-
-1998-01-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in (soname_spec): Add in user-specified release numbers
- for every host system that supports an soname that differs from
- the linkname.
-
- * libtool.m4 (LD): Add `-old_ld' to the list of flags that need to
- be passed through on SGI. Reported by Chris Lee.
-
- * ltmain.in (release): Prepend a hyphen to the release number, and
- fix a typo because `-version-info' takes only 3 args. From
- H.J. Lu.
-
-1998-01-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in (library_names_spec): On Linux, use the
- user-specified release.
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Allow the user to specify a release number for
- the library using the `-release' flag. Suggested by H.J. Lu and
- Ian Lance Taylor.
-
-1998-01-23 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Export some important
- environment variables. Reported by Ian Haggard.
-
-1998-01-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in (old_postuninstall_cmds): Reorder so that chmod
- happens after ranlib. From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.
-
- * ltmain.in (mode): Added `gcc*' and `*-gcc*' to the patterns that
- recognize compilers. From Pieter Schoenmakers.
- (link): Recognize `.a' files again. Suggested by Pieter
- Schoenmakers.
-
-1998-01-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in (compile): Recognize `.asm' extension, for use with
- the nasm assembler. From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.
-
- * tests/suffix.test (extensions): Recognize `.asm'. From Markus
- F.X.J. Oberhumer.
-
-1998-01-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in (runpath_var): Use instead of
- `hardcode_runpath_var'.
-
-1998-01-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in (finish): Add a better --finish message. Suggested by
- Kenneth Albanowski.
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Fix a few typos.
-
-1998-01-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Quote the definition of $echo in the wrapper
- script.
-
- * ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag_spec): Use `--export-dynamic'
- instead of `-export-dynamic', which is not accepted by all GNU
- ld's. From Eiichi Takamori.
-
- * ltmain.in (install): Don't print silly `library stripping'
- warnings. Reported by François Pinard.
-
-1997-12-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltmain.in: Don't forget to quote the CDPATH substitution. From
- Tor Lillqvist.
-
-1997-12-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (CDPATH): Unset this environment variable
- so that HP-UX shells, at least, don't print out the directory name
- after a `cd' command. From Tor Lillqvist.
-
-1997-12-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (hardcode): Change a bunch of references to
- `$(LIBS)' to `-lm', since we no longer put -lm in LIBS.
-
- * demo/configure.in: Delete the test for libm, since it is
- standard on every system.
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (libhello_la_LDFLAGS): Change to include -lm,
- in accordance with new inter-library dependency code.
-
- * ltmain.in (dependency_libs): Added to help people link programs
- without having to explicitly specify inter-library dependencies.
-
- * ltconfig.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Oops... I forgot to apply the AIX 3
- restriction to the generated libtool script. Reported by Stefan
- Westerfeld.
-
-1997-12-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in (thisdir): Quote $echo in the generated libtool
- script for HP-UX. From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Recognize the `.s' suffix. From Markus
- F.X.J. Oberhumer.
-
- * ltconfig.in (link_static_flag): Don't quote ${wl} on HP-UX
- because link_static_flag is never evaled. From Eric Backus.
-
- * tests/suffix.test (extensions): Recognize `.s'. From Markus
- F.X.J. Oberhumer.
-
-1997-12-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (helldl_DEPENDENCIES): Add `libhello.la' to our
- dependencies so that parallel builds work correctly. From Jim
- Meyering.
-
- * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig, $(srcdir)/ltmain.sh): Rewrite
- these rules so that they are parallelizable. Reported by Jim
- Meyering.
-
- * ltconfig.in (ltecho): We need special handling to quote the
- `echo' variable itself. From Alexandre Oliva.
-
-1997-11-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Enable this workaround for a broken
- collect2 only on AIX 3. This avoids problems on other AIX
- versions. Reported by Stefan Westerfeld.
-
- * ltmain.in, ltconfig.in (finish_eval): Variable like finish_cmds,
- except it is a single command which is evaled, and not shown.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Port to AmigaOS. From Joop van de Wege.
-
- * ltmain.in (echo): Delete preamble to check for a working echo,
- since we just use the one included in the generated libtool.
-
- * ltconfig.in (echo): Include this definition in the generated
- libtool script.
-
-1997-11-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in, libtool.m4 (NM): Add /usr/ccs/bin to the PATH
- before checking. From Kaveh R. Ghazi.
- (NM): Delete an extraneous egrep from ltconfig.
-
- * ltconfig.in (finish_cmds): Change back to using `ldconfig -n'.
- This makes Linux behave like other systems, which is more in line
- with what libtool needs.
-
-1997-11-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltmain.in: Change a whole bunch of `progname' variables to
- `modename'. This is for clarity, and to fix a tiny typo in finish
- mode.
-
- * libtool.spec (Name, Version): Ditto.
-
- * configure.in (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Use PRCS to automatically generate
- the proper package name and version number.
-
- * ltconfig.in (gnu_ld_acts_native): Treat GNU ld like the native
- linker on SunOS 4.x. Suggested by Alexandre Oliva.
- (deplibs): Change the defaults all over, since most systems cannot
- handle inter-library dependencies.
-
- * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Only look at the first line of the
- output from NM when determining whether it supports a command line
- option. This prevents false positives on OSes which ignore
- invalid flags, like HP-UX, which prints `nm: unknown option "B"
- ignored'. Reported by Kaveh R. Ghazi.
-
- * ltconfig.in (finish_cmds): On Linux, update ld.so.cache by
- removing the `-n' flag from ldconfig. Suggested by Kenneth
- Albanowski.
-
- * Makefile.am (maintainer-checkin, maintainer-release): New
- commands to reap the full benefit of using PRCS to maintain
- libtool version numbers.
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (global_symbol_pipe): Explicitly cast all
- addresses to __ptr_t. This fixes a bug due to a strict IRIX
- compiler. Suggested by Kaveh R. Ghazi.
-
-1997-11-23 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltmain.in (echo): For aesthetics, avoid using `$echo' when
- `echo' will do *exactly* the same thing. This prevents ugly
- `printf %s\n timestamp > some.lo' commands from appearing in the
- libtool output.
- (link): Delete the `-allow-undefined' flag because it is now the
- default. Make `-no-undefined' in order for people to declare that
- a library is entirely self-contained. This prevents maintainers
- from accidentally creating shared libraries that won't work on
- AIX. Reported by Stefan Westerfeld and Danny Backx.
-
- * ltconfig.in (echo): Use an echo variable, just as in ltmain.in,
- because we need it for quoting substitutions. For most of the
- script, though, use the default echo, just like Autoconf does.
- Without this patch, character \001 ends up in global_symbol_pipe.
- Reported by Lars Hecking and Jürgen Fluk.
-
- * ltmain.in (echo): Set default to `echo=echo'. Ooops. That's
- what you get for testing obscure code paths and forgetting to
- revert to the original version. Reported by Danny Backx.
-
-1997-11-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): Set to `-R' for FreeBSD
- 2.2. From Sean Kelly.
- (postuninstall_cmds, old_postuninstall_cmds): Commands to run
- after uninstall mode deletes the libraries. Suggested by Joop van
- de Wege.
- (export_dynamic_flag_spec): On HP-UX, add the `${wl}-E'
- export_dynamic_flag_spec. Reported by Matthias Hoelzer.
-
-1997-11-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (sed_quote_subst): Oops. We forgot to
- quote backticks. Reported by Joop van de Wege.
-
- * tests/quote.test: Add backticks to the backslashify test.
-
-1997-11-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in (symcode): On IRIX, don't extract undefined
- symbols. When a function is inlined by G++, references to it are
- still marked as undefined in the object file. This means that our
- symbol file causes undefined references, because there are
- actually no matching global symbols. Reported by Paul Kendall.
-
-1997-11-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Don't forget to redirect the COLLECT_NAMES libtool
- script fragment to the generated libtool, rather than to stdout.
-
-1997-11-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * libtool.m4 (LD): Add a more sophisticated test to determine the
- ABI flag on IRIX 6. Suggested by Lars Hecking and Ian Lance
- Taylor.
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Only export this
- variable if we are running under AIX. Otherwise, we tickle a g++
- bug under IRIX. From Paul Kendall.
-
- * Change bug reporting address to <bug-libtool@gnu.org>.
-
- * ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): OSF/1 3.x also requires a
- wildcard argument to `-expect_unresolved'. From Stephan Kulow.
-
-1997-11-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Use libname_spec.
-
- * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): Somehow, the HP-UX pic_flag (`+Z') was
- dropped between libtool-1.0 and now. Add it back in. Reported by
- Akim Demaille.
- Integrated more patches for OS/2. From Jeff Freedman.
- (libname_spec): New variable for OSes that don't require their
- libraries to look like `libNAME.a'.
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Only use global_symbol_pipe if it has been
- defined. From Stephan Kulow.
-
- * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): Protect C fragment under C++
- compilers. From Stephan Kulow.
-
- * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/acinclude.m4,
- $(srcdir)/demo/acinclude.m4): Change rules to use LN_S so that
- they can be run on any system.
-
- * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): For NetBSD, don't include deplibs.
- From Dieter Baron.
-
- * ltmain.in (mkdir): Check that the directory doesn't exist before
- we exit with error, so that we don't get races during parallel
- builds. From H.J. Lu.
- (fbsd_hideous_sh_bug): Apparently, some FreeBSD /bin/sh's have a
- bug that will empty base_compile unless we do this dummy
- assignment. From Marc van Kempen.
-
-1997-10-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * libtool.m4 (libtool_shared, libtool_static): Fixed logic error
- to reenable override of libtool's defaults by setting
- enable_shared or enable_static in configure.in. Reported by Tom
- Tromey and Stephan Kulow.
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Add explicit support for compiler options that
- begin with `+'. Reported by Aubert Pierre.
-
-1997-10-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltmain.in: Silly me. Change a bunch of occurances of "* $dir *"
- into *" $dir "*.
-
- * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): PIC is the default for AIX. From Mark
- Kettenis. It is also the default for OSF/1.
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (objdir): Quote double-quotes. From Mark
- Kettenis.
-
- * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): This variable is not
- double-evaled, so it should not be double quoted. From Mark
- Kettenis.
-
-1997-10-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in (LD): Same as below.
-
- * libtool.m4 (LD): Set LD if we discover an absolute path to GNU
- ld. This prevents breakage when `$CC -print-prog-name=ld' returns
- an absolute directory name. Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Port to OS/2 using EMX. From Jeff Freedman.
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Use old_archive_from_new_cmds.
-
- * ltconfig.in (old_archive_from_new_cmds): New variable to
- support DLL libraries.
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Only `eval' export_dynamic_flag_spec if it is
- not empty. Reported by Stephan Kulow.
-
-1997-10-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in (objdir): Use the .libs directory on all systems for
- which that name is valid, and _libs on the others (like MS-DOS).
- Suggested by Juergen Erhard.
-
-1997-10-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Added a bit more inter-language support to the
- symbol file generation process.
- Instead of complaining about unrecognized argument suffices, pass
- them to the linker. This prevents libtool from barfing on
- mandatory arguments to linker flags. Reported by Michael
- Tiemann.
-
-1997-10-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Change the wrapper script to follow symlinks
- in order to find thisdir. This should put the final nail in the
- coffin for problems with wrapper scripts. From Ian Lance Taylor.
-
-1997-10-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.in: Change a few `$echo' commands into `$show' to make
- --silent mode behave as advertised.
-
- * ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): On OSF/1 4.x, use
- `-expect_unresolved \*'. From Christian Mondrup.
-
- * ltmain.in (install): Change install mode to allow a specified
- /bin/sh argument at the beginning of the install_prog. Also,
- specify the shell to run when invoking libtool recursively for
- finish mode. From Chris Provenzano.
-
- * libtool.m4 (LIBTOOL): Change definition to include $(SHELL).
- From Chris Provenzano.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Port to UTS 4.x. From Alistair Crooks.
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (hc-libflag): Add rules to make this binary for
- hardcode.test.
-
- * tests/hardcode.test (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): Check the hardcoding
- properties of the flag_spec, too.
-
-1997-09-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (LD): As with libtool.m4, don't override LD.
- Do a whole bunch of ac_t quoting.
-
-1997-09-24 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD): Don't override LD in the environment.
-
-1997-09-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Arguments to the for loop must be
- whitespace separated. This fixes a bug under FreeBSD's /bin/sh.
- From George Scott.
-
- * tests/defs, tests/Makefile.am (clean-local): Change =inst to
- _inst to fix portability on MS-DOS. From Robert Hoehne.
-
-1997-09-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.in (deplibs): When building shared libraries, always add
- -lc to deplibs. Reported by Andreas Jellinghaus.
-
-1997-09-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (COLLECT_NAMES): If the COLLECT_NAMES
- environment variable has not been set, set it to empty. This
- apparently fixes the AIX bug with GCC's collect2. Reported by
- Mark Kettenis.
-
- * demo/Makefile.am, ltmain.in, tests/hardcode.test (objdir):
- Changed objdir variable .libs to _libs. This is another MS-DOS
- portability fix. Suggested by Robert Hoehne.
-
- * tests/hardcode.test (objdir): New variable to simplify change from
- .libs to _libs (MS-DOS portability fix).
-
-1997-09-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (hardcode_minusL): Fix typo by renaming
- hardcode_minusL to hardcode_minus_L. Also add FreeBSD
- hardcode_libdir_flag_spec. From Paul Traina.
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Honour multiple `-rpath' flags when linking
- programs. Suggested by Bengt Martensson.
- Quote appearances of $echo in the wrapper script. From Alexandre
- Oliva.
-
- * Makefile.am, configure.in, tests/tlibtool: Use ltmain.in instead
- of ltmain.sh.in.
-
- * ltmain.in: Rename ltmain.sh.in to ltmain.in. This fixes a
- portability problem (on MS-DOS, of all places!). From Robert
- Hoehne.
-
-1997-09-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Do not transform libtool objects to regular
- objects if we did not build old libs. Reported by Tomas Hiller.
-
-1997-09-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (hell_debug_LDFLAGS): Change hell.static to
- hell.debug in order to reflect the new static linking semantics.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add new `-all-static' flag to prevent all
- dynamic linking. The old `-static' flag just prevents dynamic
- linking against libtool libraries. Suggested by Bengt
- Martensson.
-
- * ltconfig.in (with_gnu_ld): Add a test to make sure that we are
- actually using GNU ld. This fixes an inconsistency when running
- ltconfig without using libtool.m4. Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
- (global_symbol_pipe): Delete symbols that are not valid C
- identifiers. Reported by Johan Danielsson and Bengt Martensson.
-
- * tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test: Change references from
- hell.static to hell.debug.
-
- * tests/quote.test (echo): Add the same Digital Unix echo test fixes as
- the ones to ltmain.sh.in from Todd Kover.
-
- * tests/if.test, tests/test-e.test (scripts): Add ../lineno to
- the scripts we check.
- * tests/if.test: Check for accidental use of test X$something rather
- than test "X$something".
-
-1997-09-04 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (echo): Quote all the uses of `echo' in all eval
- statements. Reported by Bengt Martensson and Alexandre Oliva.
- (echo): Need to surround test args with double quotes, or the echo
- test fails on Digital Unix 4.0. From Todd Kover.
-
-1997-08-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (echo): Change test to one that uses printf.
- This works on AIX, which has the same problems that Solaris does,
- but no working echo program.
-
- * tests/quote.test (echo): Change test to version that uses printf.
- Be less strict about return results.
-
-1997-08-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Make sure that compile_command and
- finalize_command are always evaled. Quote any unknown linker
- flags we need to pass through.
- (compile): Use quoting for flags we pass.
- (echo): I hate Sun! The /usr/bin/echo on Solaris handles
- backslash sequences, which makes it impossible to do backslash
- quoting using echo and sed. So, we search for an echo that obeys
- the `echo '\t'` = '\t' equality. Then we use `$echo' everywhere
- in ltmain.sh.
- Put tabs back into the ${IFS= } sequences. Emacs untabify is
- libtool bane.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Quote all variable values that may contain
- metacharacters creating the libtool script. This provides
- complete protection, so that even single-quotes may appear inside
- a libtool variable value.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Quote finalize_command before putting it in
- the wrapper script.
-
- * tests/quote.test (echo): Add the test for a non-backslash-mangling
- echo.
-
-1997-08-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (sed_quote_subst): Change the quoting procedure
- again. I think that the new one is robust for *all* characters,
- including whitespace and metacharacters.
-
- * tests/quote.test: New torture test for libtool metacharacter quoting.
-
-1997-08-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Change quoting procedure because some shells
- cannot handle `]' in scan sets. From Ian Dall.
-
-1997-08-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (execute): Added -dlopen flag handling. Suggested
- by Alexandre Oliva.
-
-1997-08-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Change executable wrapper to fix up value
- of thisdir, as well as progdir, if the $0 path doesn't work. This
- guarantees that shlibpath_var is set correctly. Add support for
- execute mode.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (execute): New mode to automatically set
- shlibpath_var, which allows easy debugging of uninstalled
- executables and libraries. Suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.
-
-1997-08-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Use lineno.
-
- * configure.in: Add AM_PROG_AWK for lineno.
-
- * lineno: New program to automatically put line numbers in
- ltconfig.
-
- * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (AM_PROG_LD): Yet Another Rewrite, which
- incorporates the results of `gcc -print-program-name=ld'.
- Suggested by Alexandre Oliva.
-
-1997-08-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Accept `--quiet' and `--silent' flags to turn off
- command echoing. From Juergen A. Erhard.
-
- (compile): Recognize the Objective C `.m' extension. From Juergen
- A. Erhard.
-
- (compile): Suppress error output from the second compilation (if
- any) so that we don't get those frustrating duplicate error
- messages.
-
- * tests/suffix.test (extensions): Added Objective C extension, `.m'.
-
-1997-08-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Added messages to config.log to describe what sort
- of test we are running.
- (pic_flag): Added a sanity check for pic_flag. This should fix
- bugs reported using the cc bundled with HP-UX 10. Suggested by
- Bruno Haible and Akim Demaille.
-
-1997-08-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add -dlopen and -dlpreopen support for
- libtool objects. This means that dlopened modules no longer need
- to be shared libraries.
-
- * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): GCC on IRIX 6 always builds PIC.
- Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.
-
- * libtool.m4 (LD): Always add `-n32' to the linker if we are using
- GCC on IRIX 6. Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.
-
-1997-07-30 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Explicitly check enable_shared and
- enable_static rather than just enableval. This allows
- configure.in scripts to set their own defaults. Suggested by
- Tommy Reilly.
-
-1997-07-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Add NLS environment variable handling copied from
- ltconfig.in. Reported by Akim Demaille.
- (link): If allow_undefined_flag is not supported, then turn on old
- libraries. Reported by Akim Demaille.
-
- * demo/dlmain.c (main): Use dld_preloaded_symbol_count to display
- a message about the sortedness of the symbol table.
-
- * ltconfig.in (nlist): Use an nlist convenience variable, so that
- code can be shared directly with ltmain.sh.in.
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (dld_preloaded_symbol_count): Count up
- the number of symbols in the dld_preloaded_symbols. Set to `-1'
- if the list wasn't both sorted and counted. This allows
- applications to do a quick binary search, if they are so inclined.
-
-1997-07-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Remove code for `-version-file', since it
- has been long-deprecated.
-
- Disable static linking if hardcode_direct is unsupported and there
- is no working link_static_flag. This provides correct behaviour
- for all cases on AIX 3, regardless of whether collect2 is broken
- or not. Reported by Mark Kettenis.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Fix typo in test polarity. From Mark Kettenis.
-
-1997-07-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (hardcode_direct): Set to `unsupported' if aix3 uses
- a broken collect2. Adapted out of test results from Mark
- Kettenis.
- (link_static_flag): Make sure the link_static_flag actually works
- with a trivial binary.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag_spec): Renamed
- from export_dynamic_flag because we eval it in ltmain.sh.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link_static): Don't eval link_static_flag.
-
- * demo/dlmain.c (main): Change function prototype to be KNR
- compatible. From Kaveh R. Ghazi.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Use no_builtin_flag. This works around
- conflicting definitions of builtin functions with at least GCC.
- Reported by Kazuhiro Sasayama.
-
- * ltconfig.in (no_builtin_flag): New flag to turn off builtin
- functions when compiling an object file.
- (pipe_works): Use it.
-
- * tests/demo-exec.test (status): Use status variables so that we try to
- execute all the programs.
-
-1997-07-23 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): According to the libg++ 2.7.2 configure
- script, DEC alpha CPUs are PIC-only, as well. Reported by Kevin
- Jacobs.
-
-1997-07-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in: Replace all occurances of "sed 'X;
- Y'" with "sed -e 'X' -e 'Y'".
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Finish full integration for `-dlopen' and
- `-dlpreopen'.
-
- Fix two silly typos where I used a compile_command in place of a
- finalize_command, and vice versa.
-
- Change the wrapper script to check a hardcoded path only if the
- argv[0] method fails. This is a compromise for the previous two
- patches, and should solve the majority of problems with wrapper
- scripts. From Kenneth Albanowski.
-
- (link): Change a reference to hardcode_libdir_colon_separated to
- use the new hardcode_libdir_separator variable.
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (helldl_LDFLAGS): Add `-export-dynamic' and
- `-dlpreopen' for building helldl.
-
- * demo/dlmain.c (main): Succeed, even if none of the libhello
- symbols have been preloaded.
-
-1997-07-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): Add `U' to the accepted global
- symbol types. This means that we will get duplicate symbols, but
- we'll also be sure to get all global symbols used by the program.
-
- * ltconfig.in (pipe_works), ltmain.sh.in (link): Sort and make
- symbol output unique.
-
-1997-07-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (pipe_works): Check to make sure our guessed
- global_symbol_pipe actually works.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Revert change from Kenneth Albanowski. The
- wrapper scripts are more reliable when they just use the argv[0]
- value. Generally, when the argv[0] method doesn't work, the user
- is trying to do something weird with an uninstalled binary, and
- should try a different approach.
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (CC): Always use `$CC' instead of
- `$cc'. This fixes a FreeBSD bug. Reported by Chuck Robey, and
- others.
-
-1997-07-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): In wrapper scripts, hardcode the current
- directory to prevent phony argv[0] values from screwing up our
- program. From Kenneth Albanowski.
-
-1997-07-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Add demo/dlmain.c to the
- distribution.
-
-1997-07-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * demo/Makefile.am: Add helldl, made from dlmain.c, to demostrate
- `-dlopen' usage.
-
- * demo/dlmain.c: New file to demonstrate preloaded modules.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add `-dlopen' flag to preload dynamic
- modules, even on static platforms. Use `$NM' and
- `$global_symbol_cmd' to extract symbols from required files.
- (dlname): Delete dlname mode entirely. It is rendered obsolete
- because the `.la' file format is now a public interface.
-
- * ltconfig.in (NM): New variable for BSD-compatible nm program.
- (global_symbol_cmd): Pipeline to extract global symbols from the
- nm output.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: The .la file header should depend on `ltmain.sh',
- not `$PROGRAM'.
- (link): Make sure $export_dynamic_flag is eval'ed before it is
- used.
-
- * tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test: Check the new
- helldl program, too.
-
-1997-07-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * libtool.spec: New Red Hat Package Manager specification file in
- order to help people prepare distributions of libtool for Linux.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Eliminate two accidental uses of the NONE magic
- value. These were breaking libtool's behaviour when no mode is
- specified.
-
- * tests/nomode.test: New test to make sure there is correct behaviour
- when we don't specify a mode.
-
-1997-07-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Release 1.0.
-
- * ltconfig.in: On SunOS, append /usr/etc to the PATH before
- running ldconfig; on *BSD, append /sbin. This was done in line
- with the Linux change suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (hardcode_tests): Aesthetic change to
- alphabetize order of compiling the hardcode tests.
-
- * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Delete README-automake.
-
- * README-automake: Remove from distribution.
-
-1997-07-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): In the executable wrapper, strip trailing
- colons from the shlibpath_var because some ld.so's, notably
- OpenBSD 2.0's (!), don't parse colon-terminated values correctly.
- From Tim Pierce.
-
-1997-07-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in: Eliminate uses of the NONE magic
- variable value. Use an empty variable instead.
-
- * ltconfig.in (with_gcc, with_gnu_ld): Do the tests for the C
- compiler and linker if the variables are unset, or if they are not
- GNU C and ld.
- (RANLIB): Eliminate redundant `if' statement.
-
- * configure.in: Use AM_PROG_LD.
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD_GNU): New macro to determine if LD is GNU
- ld.
- (AM_PROG_LD): Rename AM_PATH_PROG_LD to AM_PROG_LD. Parameterize
- so that the user can specify `--with-gnu-ld' or `--without-gnu-ld'
- to indicate his preference.
- (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Use it.
-
-1997-06-30 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Append /sbin to the path before running ldconfig on
- Linux. This helps superusers who haven't set their PATH
- correctly. Suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.
-
- * tests/if.test: New test to make sure that we haven't forgotten to
- follow an `if' statement with a `test' command. This should avoid
- the majority of hard-to-track bugs.
-
-1997-06-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Change all the `eval "$run ..."' sequences to
- `$run "eval ..."'.
-
- Change all `$ln_s ...' sequences to use `(cd /dir && $LN_S ...)'.
- This is the sequence recommended by the Autoconf manual, and
- should avoid any problems on older machines. Eliminate all uses
- of `cp -p'. Reported by Akim Demaille.
-
- (install): Use `test $# -gt 0' instead of `test -n "$1"'.
-
- * ltconfig.in (LN_S): Add test to see if `ln -s' works.
-
- * libtool.m4: Increment serial number, and require AC_PROG_LN_S.
-
-1997-06-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add missing `test' statement. Reported by
- Akim Demaille.
-
-1997-06-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * libtool.m4 (LD): Consistently use ac_cv_path_ld instead of
- am_cv_path_ld. From Tim Pierce.
-
-1997-06-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Redo two robustness fixes. Alexandre had the
- correct approach, but I botched them.
-
- * ltconfig.in (dynamic_linker): Disable shared libraries on
- MkLinux unless GNU libc is in use. Reported by Akim Demaille.
-
-1997-06-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (install): Add a missing `test' command. Reported
- by Joel Weber.
- Miscellaneous fixes to improve robustness. From Alexandre Oliva.
-
- * tests/demo-conf.test (CONFIG_SITE): Set to /dev/null, so that the
- config.site file doesn't mess up our prefix. Reported by Joel
- Weber.
-
- * tests/demo-inst.test: Always run both hell.static and hell.
-
- * tests/demo-conf.test: Always remove the local config.cache, but run
- `make distclean' only if the Makefile exists. Otherwise, the demo
- directory is not cleaned up if a user uses their own config.cache.
- Reported by Joel Weber.
-
-1997-06-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Create invalid libtool objects when partial
- linking if we don't have PIC. From Jeff Dairiki.
- (install): Fix bug if libtool object is installed to a file name
- without directory components. From Jeff Dairiki.
-
-1997-06-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Makefile.am (demo/configure): Fix up rules to run autoconf.
- (aclocal.m4): Now we depend on our own libtool.m4.
-
- * configure.in (AM_PATH_PROG_LD): Use it.
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_PATH_PROG_LD): New macro to find the linker used
- by the C compiler.
- (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Use it.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (install, uninstall): Support installing and
- uninstalling `.lo' files. From Jeff Dairiki.
-
-1997-06-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): Only move if $(srcdir) is not
- the current directory. Don't regenerate every time the package is
- reconfigured. Reported by Tom Tromey.
- (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Added ltconfig, ltmain.sh, so that
- $(srcdir) is not messed with during a regular clean.
-
-1997-06-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): Be sure to move these files
- into $(srcdir) once they are created.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Disable building static libraries.
- People should use their favourite AR and RANLIB commands.
- Disable building old-style objects if `--disable-static' is
- given. Suggested by Tom Lees and Stephan Kulow.
-
-1997-06-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (host_cpu, host_vendor, host_os): Patch up
- definitions, to allow for the fact that the host_os may contain
- hyphens (as in linux-gnu). From Scott Goehring.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Move the `dlname' setting closer to the top
- of the file. Suggested by David Mosberger-Tang.
- Symlink the libtool archive into the `.libs' directory so that it
- can be found by programs that want to find a library's dlname by
- searching LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Reported by David Mosberger-Tang.
-
-1997-06-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Tell people to report bugs to the new libtool mailing list,
- <bug-libtool@gnu.ai.mit.edu>.
-
-1997-06-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): New variable that implements
- `-allow-undefined'.
- (archive_cmds): Enable C++ constructors for FreeBSD 2.2. From
- David Nugent.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Accept new `-allow-undefined' flag when
- building libtool libraries. This tells libtool to allow
- unresolved symbols to exist in shared libraries. Basically, this
- turns off shared libraries on AIX. Suggested by Ian Lance Taylor.
-
-1997-05-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * libtool.m4 (LD): On at least IRIX, many different flags need to
- be propagated to the linker if they are part of the compiler
- command line. Reported by Anthony Green.
-
-1997-05-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to FreeBSD 3. From David Nugent.
-
-1997-04-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Remove all traces of `-whole-archive',
- `-no-whole-archive', and libtool convenience libraries. They were
- more trouble than they're worth. If these are ever reimplemented,
- they need more careful attention to make portable.
-
- * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in: Added a `--disable-static' flag to turn
- off static library creation. From Tom Lees (who finally convinced
- me that it was the Right Thing to do).
-
-1997-04-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_runpath_var, runpath_var): Use them, if
- the linker has no -rpath flag.
- Quote the values we use to set runpath_var and shlibpath_var.
- (link): Use libobjlibs for libtool convenience libraries.
-
- * ltconfig.in (hardcode_runpath_var, runpath_var): Add new
- variables to describe linkers that honour `LD_RUN_PATH'.
- (host_cpu, host_os): Use these more specific variables, rather
- than the full canonical host system name.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (dlname): Distinguish between missing
- `-export-dynamic' and when the library is only statically linked.
-
-1997-04-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to OpenBSD by making it an alias for
- NetBSD. From Tim Pierce.
-
-1997-04-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Temporary measures to check for a broken collect2
- program. Right now, we just see if we're using GCC on AIX 3.
-
- * tests/hardcode.test: AIX also has arbitrary limits on the line length
- of input to fgrep(1), so we need to translate NUL characters to
- newlines in order to properly detect embedded `.libs'. From Bruno
- Haible.
- Also redirect stderr to /dev/null, so that AIX users don't get
- worried by `fgrep: Maximum line length of 2048 exceeded.'.
-
-1997-04-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (mode): Use `egrep -e' when inferring the operation
- mode.
-
-1997-04-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (linker): Some GNU ld's don't accept `--version',
- but do accept `-v'. From Jukka Honkela.
- (ld_shlibs): AIX lossage may be settling down. AIX 3.2.5 ld does
- *not* hardcode direct libraries, but AIX 4.1.[45] ld does.
-
-1997-04-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (hardcode_action): Fix silly logic error. From
- Bruno Haible.

- * ltmain.sh.in (install): Relink if hardcode_action is `relink',
- rather than using complex conditionals based on the other
- hardcode variables.
-
- * ltconfig.in (hardcode_action): Set to `relink', not `immediate',
- if we can only hardcode existing directories. Rearrange
- conditionals to make the intent clearer, otherwise this can be one
- hellish piece of code for the already-dizzy libtool maintainer.
-
-1997-04-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * replfunc.m4: Delete from the distribution. Documentation now
- describes how to set LTALLOCA and LTLIBOBJS in your own
- configure.in.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Make sure a libtool library only counts as
- a shared library if its library_names are non-null.
- Use timestamps for .lo's when PIC is turned off, rather than
- symlinking to the real object. This helps invalid mixtures of PIC
- and non-PIC to fail.
-
-1997-04-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute libtool.prj.
-
- * Shameless plug: Changed source code management system from CVS
- to PRCS.
-
- * libtool.scm: Initial Guile implementation of libtool.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: An unexpected inconsistency in my whole approach
- to shared libraries has proven that libtool needs to be completely
- rewritten if I'm going to give full shared library support for
- platforms that don't use the GNU C library version 2 (which to my
- knowledge currently only works on GNU Hurd and Linux/GNU systems).
- Porting the GNU C library should not be difficult, though.
-
- Platforms that don't have the dlopen(3) family of functions will
- need to install GNU DLD version 4 in order to build any kind of
- libraries at all. Unfortunately, DLD 4 won't be released for a
- while, because I maintain it, and I'm too busy working on libtool.
-
- I'll keep the old ltconfig/ltmain.sh implementation around for as
- long as I can, and continue applying bug fixes, so that I'll have
- a reasonable starting point for this new libtool implementation.
-
- It looks like this implementation will be even more complex than
- the original (pre-0.7) libtool. Initial estimates show that it
- may be up to 3 times slower, and 5 times larger than libtool-0.9.
- I'll probably have to rewrite it in Guile to get reasonable
- performance, which will severely limit its portability for a
- while.
-
- That will also introduce a bootstrapping issue, since the next
- release of Guile will use libtool to build shared libraries. So,
- if users want to have shared Guile libraries, they will have to
- configure Guile with `--disable-shared', compile it, install it,
- then reconfigure Guile with `--enable-shared' and repeat.
-
- I was hoping to get libtool 1.0 out the door by early April, but
- now it looks like it will take at least another year before it'll
- be usable by the public at large. April fools. libtool.scm
- doesn't exist yet, either.
-
- * ltconfig.in (verify_host): Remove redundant `Transform *-*-linux*
- to *-*-linux-gnu*'. From Bruno Haible.
-
- * tests/hardcode.test: AIX 3 doesn't have strings(1) so we need to do a
- funny tr and pipe the output to fgrep. From Bruno Haible.
-
-1997-03-31 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Makefile.am: Use the new AUTOMAKE and ACLOCAL variables.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Only fail if a convenience library doesn't
- exist, and the user specified -whole-archive.
- Fix shell quoting that was breaking @OUTPUT@ substitution.
-
-1997-03-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Use the hardcode_libdir_separator.
- Convenience libraries are libtool objects if we're not building
- libtool libs.
-
- * ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_separator): Added in case the
- linker only honours the last of the -rpath flags (but it can
- contain multiple colon-separated directories), such as on OSF/1.
- Reported by Carl D. Roth.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Set the dlname if -export-dynamic is given.
- (install, uninstall): Handle the dlname file separately.

- Added `-whole-archive' and `-no-whole-archive' to manipulate
- convenience libraries.
-
-1997-03-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Allow the creation of static convenience
- libraries made of libtool objects. Suggested by David
- Mosberger-Tang.
-
-1997-03-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: On AIX, libtool also needs to look for `B' symbols
- in nm output. These are global variable definitions.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Linking with -static should link against the
- linklib if old_library is empty (like it is on AIX).
-
- * ltconfig.in: Change the order of OS detection, so that
- linux-gnu* is detected before gnu*.
-
- * Makefile.am (libtool): Use the correct CC, RANLIB, LD, when
- generating libtool. From Carl D. Roth.
-
- * configure.in: Find out the user-supplied CC, LD, RANLIB. From
- Carl D. Roth.
-
-1997-03-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Linking with -static should link against the old
- library, not linklib.
-

- configured. Reported by Tom Tromey.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Bomb out if no library types are configured.
-
-1997-02-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-

- from `hardcode_libdir_flag'.
- (library_names_spec): Renamed from `lib_names'.
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_action): Change value from
- `rpath' to `immediate'.
-
- * replfunc.m4: Add AM_FUNC_ALLOCA, AM_FUNC_MEMCMP, and
- AM_STRUCT_ST_BLOCKS.
-
-1997-02-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Transform *-*-linux* to *-*-linux-gnu* to support
- old-style config.guess scripts.
-
-1997-02-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Create objdir *before* linking a program into it.
-
-1997-02-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Any ld --version that returns GNU is probably a GNU
- ld. From Marcus Daniels.
-
- * libtool.m4: Added AM_REPLACE_FUNCS.
-
-1997-02-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to *-*-osf4. From Bruno Haible.
-
-1997-02-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: AIX 3 and 4 ld only hardcodes LIBPATH if -L is not
- specified. This behaviour is the same with both xlc and gcc.
-
-1997-02-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * doc/platforms.texi: Yaay! We found a workaround for HP-UX
- /bin/sh buffer overflows. From Eric Backus.
-
-1997-02-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Release 0.9.
-
- * PLATFORMS, doc/platforms.texi, Makefile.am, doc/Makefile.am:
- Move PLATFORMS to doc/platforms.texi.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Use hardcode_libdir_flag to get a library
- directory into the resulting binary.
- Use hardcode_action, and make many simplifying changes to have
- compilation and finalization be consistent with each other.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Not so amazing! It's AIX cc that hardcodes direct
- libraries... gcc doesn't, though.
- (link_rpath_flag): Change link_rpath_flag to be
- hardcode_libdir_flag.
- (hardcode_action): New variable to simplify ltmain.sh.
-
- * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Do the full make sequence with
- --disable-shared, then without.
-
- * tests/demo-sttc.test: Configure the demo directory with
- --disable-shared.
-
-1997-01-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Change to take advantage of linkers that don't
- hardcode direct libraries.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Amazing! AIX 3 linker doesn't hardcode direct
- libraries, which makes it less buggy than AIX 4. Reported by Mark
- Kettenis.
-
- * demo/configure.in: Check for the math library.
-
- * demo/foo.c (foo): Change to use the `cos' function, so that we
- need to link against another library.
-
- * tests/hardcode.test: Rewrite to use fgrep on output from ``strings
- -a'' if using fgrep directly on the binary files fails. From Mark
- Kettenis.
-
-1997-01-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Export the PATH variable in order to find
- the program, rather than giving a full path. This helps give the
- program a less confusing value for argv[0].
-
- * tests/hardcode.test: Make sure that ../demo/libhello.la really is a
- shared library before running hardcoding tests.
-
-1997-01-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

-
- * ltconfig.in: IRIX ld does not hardcode direct libraries.
- Reported by Bruno Haible.
-

-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_shlibpath_var): Allow new
- value, `unsupported', since most linkers do not allow you to use
- shlibpath_var for initial linking.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Lots of bug fixes from Bruno Haible. Set wl on
- OSF/1, fix definitions of hardcode_* variables.
- (archive_cmds): Fix not to use +h on HP-UX 9.x. Reported by Bruno
- Haible.
-
- * tests/demo-conf.test: Use the CONFIG_SHELL environment variable when
- running configure in the demo directory. From Bruno Haible.
-
- * tests/Makefile.am (clean-local): Make distclean in the demo directory,
- so that ``make clean; env CC=cc make check'' works as one would
- expect.
-
- * tests/demo-make.test: Fix typo (use $make instead of make). Reported
- by Akim Demaille.
-
-1997-01-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * libtoolize.in: Handle explicit AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR settings.
- Suggested by Akim Demaille.
-
- * libtool.m4: Change ltconfig line to use $CONFIG_SHELL when it is
- specified. Reported by Bruno Haible.
-
-1997-01-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (hc-direct): Do better searching for the proper
- name to do a direct link.
- (hc-libpath): Make allowances if shlibpath_var cannot be used

-
- * demo/Makefile.am: Remove ansi2knr from the AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
-
- * demo/ansi2knr.1, demo/ansi2knr.c: Removed these files.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Use 1>&2 consistently to direct errors and
- warnings to stderr.
- (compile): Fix missing single quote.
-
- * ltconfig.in (hardcode_direct): On Solaris at least, using
- DIR/libNAME.so does not hardcode DIR, so introduce a new hardcode
- variable to reflect that.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): If linking with $link_static_flag fails,
- then retry without it, but still use the .a versions of
- uninstalled libtool archives.
-
- * tests/tlibtool: Rewrote to grab all the settings from the generated
- libtool script.
-
- * tests/hardcode.test: Make allowances if shlibpath_var cannot be used
- to find libraries at link time, such as on AIX.
-
-1997-01-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Eval $link_static_flag. Reported by Bruno
- Haible.
-
- * PLATFORMS: Add to distribution. Suggested by Bruno Haible.
-
-1997-01-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * tests/demo-conf.test, tests/demo-inst.test, tests/demo-unst.test,
- tests/hardcode.test:
- Use $make instead of make.
-
- * tests/defs (make): Add definition of $make that uses the $MAKE
- environment variable, if set. Suggested by Bruno Haible.
-
- * tests/demo-unst.test (leftovers): Change the find command to ignore
- files beginning with a dot, as egrep -v doesn't seem to do the
- trick. Reported by Bruno Haible.
-
-1997-01-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Add support for SCO OpenServer 5.x. From

-
- (can_build_shared): Initialize at the top of the file, so that
- shared libraries aren't built on platforms that don't support
- them.
-
- * tests/hardcode.test: Added a test to make sure that libtool's idea of
- hardcoding system linkers is correct.
-
-1997-01-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-

-
-1997-01-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-

- port is trivial.
-
- * libtoolize.in: Add --dry-run option, -n for short.
-
-1997-01-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): On at least SunOS, /bin/sh doesn't
- understand "export something=val". From Bruno Haible.
-
- * tests/Makefile.am (distclean-local): Remove all files that the tests
- may have created. Reported by Bruno Haible.
-
- * For all tests, discover srcdir when running from the command
- line.
-
- * tests/demo-unst.test: Don't fail if make uninstall doesn't delete
- files beginning with a dot, since spurious .nfsXXX files may be
- present when running NFS. Reported by Bruno Haible.
-
-1997-01-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (compile): Recognize valid source file suffixes for
- Fortran and C++.
-
- * tests/suffix.test: New test to guarantee that libtool compile
- recognizes valid source file suffices.
-
-1996-12-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Don't allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid
- object type suffixes, in spite of Automake's current ansi2knr
- implementation. Not all compilers allow non-`.o' suffixes.
-
-1996-12-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Delete the `libtool' version type.
-
-1996-12-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

- C. Delete library stripping program, until we have a correct
- test.
-
-1996-12-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in: On AIX 3, use /usr/ucb/nm, not /ucb/nm. From Mark
- Kettenis.
-
-1996-12-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- Reported by Charles Kerr:
- * doc/libtool.texi (Creating Object Files): Doc fix independant ->
- independent.
-
- * ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs): SunOS 4 doesn't support shared library
- dependencies.
-
-1996-12-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Release 0.7.
-
- * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add README-automake to the
- distribution.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): When linking libtool libraries, use
- standard objects if they are PIC. This prevents spurious warnings
- about invalid suffixes on AIX.
-
- * demo/Makefile.am: Rename libhell to libhello, so that we're not
- quite as offensive.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Remove unnecessary host validity checking.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Don't force people to use libNAME.la: SOMETHING.la
- is good enough (for consistency with *.a handling).
-
- * tests/demo.test: Break up into demo-conf.test, demo-make.test,
- demo-exec.test, demo-inst.test, and demo-unst.test, so that passes
- and failures are reported more quickly.
-
- * tests/link-2.test: Test to make sure that .lo files don't get built
- directly into programs.
-
-1996-12-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

- object files. Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
- Remove support for creating profiled libraries (for now).
- Transform all library objects into standard objects when linking a
- program.
-
- * ltconfig.in (thisdir): How embarrassing! An error in the regexp
- for finding the directory component of the script path.
-
- * tests/tlibtool: A typically-configured libtool script, that uses
- ../ltmain.sh.in for its backend.
-
- * tests/link.test: Make sure that it is legal to link against .a files.
-
-1996-12-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (compile): Support `.S' (preprocessed assembler)
- files. Reported by Anthony Green.
-
- * libtoolize.in: Give clearer instrutions for how to update
- aclocal.m4.
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (link): Add support for creating
- reloadable objects.
-
-1996-12-04 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix passing -n flag to `libtool
- --finish'.

- Drepper.
-
-1996-12-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Give the full path to the libtool library

- our portable shell scripts.
-
-1996-12-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

- * ltconfig.in: Delete reference to ABOUT-LIBS.
-
- * tests: Added new subdirectory.
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: Doc fixes, and finished up the Configuring
- chapter.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid object
- file suffixes, for Automake's ansi2knr implementation.

-
- [help]: Give a pointer to mode-specific help when appropriate.
-
- * ltconfig.in: Changed messages to correspond to AM_PROG_CC_STDC.

-
- * ltconfig.in: Don't run the RANLIB test unless RANLIB wasn't
- set.

- installation... don't try to enforce dependencies.
-
-1996-11-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Fix up $libdir to be $dest in install mode.
-
-1996-11-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh: Finished rewrite of compile, link, and install
- modes.
-
- * New ChangeLog file for libtool-0.7, since I've totally rewritten
- libtool.
-
-1996-03-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

+
+1999-03-13 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_to_cdecl): was reset before trying

+
+ * doc/libtool.texi: complete dlopening/libltdl documentation

+
+ * ltconfig.in (sys_lib_dlsearch_path_spec): new variable, that

+ text symbols to function declarations
+ * libtool.m4: similar modifications
+ * doc/libtool.texi: document new variable
+ * ltmain.in: use global_symbol_to_cdecl to generate lt_dlpreopened

+ This test is likely to fail if self-dlopening does not work,
+ especially because we do not link the program with

+
+ * libtool.m4 (AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP): new macro, that does all the

+ * configure.in: run AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP, then set LIBTOOL_FLAGS to

+
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): run demo-nofast before demo-shared

+ this has a negative side-effect of causing automake to add MATHLIB
+ to every single Makefile. Let's use plain AC_CHECK_LIB, so that
+ LIBS get set, until we find a better alternative
+ * *demo/Makefile.am: remove $(MATHLIB)
+
+ * libltdl/configure.in: add a DESCRIPTION argument to AC_DEFINEs
+ where appropriate, so as to get rid of acconfig.h
+ * libltdl/acconfig.h: removed
+
+1999-02-13 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * *demo/Makefile.am: use $(MATHLIB)
+ * *demo/configure.in: use AC_CHECK_LIBM
+ * doc/libtool.texi: renamed file_magic_command to file_magic_cmd,
+ renamed archive_sym_cmds to archive_expsym_cmds
+ * ltconfig.in: ditto
+ * ltmain.in: ditto
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: use lt_dlmalloc/free
+ * libltdl/ltdl.h: define lt_dlmalloc/free
+ * libtool.m4: added AC_CHECK_LIBM macro
+ * ltconfig.in: renamed archive_sym_cmds to archive_expsym_cmds,
+ added always_export_symbols, export_symbols_cmd, exclude_expsyms,
+ include_expsyms, removed archive_cmds for cygwin/mingw and AIX,
+ on Solaris store the exported symbols list in objdir
+ * ltmain.in: allow -export-symbols for modules, use thread_safe flag,
+ add include_expsyms to the exported symbols
+
+1999-02-12 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.h (_LTDLL_EXTERN): libltdl is no longer linked as a
+ shared library, so the _declspec's were preventing the linker from
+ resolving symbols on win32. They have been removed now.
+
+1999-02-12 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in: don't try to read objdir/libname.la before it is
+ created!
+
+ * ltmain.in: create libname.lai at link time, not at install time,
+ but still create it at install time if it is missing
+ Reported by Akim Demaille <demaille@inf.enst.fr>
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (tryall_dlopen): strcmp filenames was reversed
+
+1999-02-11 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * autogen: libltdl needs autoheader
+ * demo/Makefile.am: renamed hell.debug to hell.static
+ (we're demonstrating static linking, not debugging)
+ * tests/demo*: ditto
+ * doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): documented new lt_dlopen(NULL)
+ feature
+ * libltdl/acconfig.h: required for config.h
+ * libltdl/configure.in: use config.h
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: use config.h, support lt_dlopen(NULL)
+ (returns a handle for the program itself)
+ * ltconfig.in: minor reformatting
+ * ltmain.in: in lt_preloaded_symbols always define
+ the program's symbols first, for -export-dynamic list all
+ program symbols together, -export-symbols was broken for
+ programs, minor reformatting
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am: renamed mdemo.debug to mdemo.static
+ * tests/mdemo*: ditto, mdemo.test was completely broken
+
+1999-02-10 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, osf3*, osf4*): do not use
+ -set_version in archive_cmds if verstring is empty
+ (irix6*, shlibpath_var, sys_lib_search_path-spec,
+ deplibs_check_method): set appropriate values depending on
+ selected ABI, -32, -n32 or -64, as set in LD by libtool.m4
+ (uts4*): remove dot between .so and versuffix
+
+1999-02-08 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, deplibs_check_method): use
+ file_magic for inter-library dependency tracking
+
+ * ltconfig.in (irix5*, hardcode_libdir_separator): set it to a
+ colon, because on IRIX 5 only the last -rpath switch prevails, and
+ it can be a list of colon-separated directories. This change will
+ affect irix6 too, but that's not a problem.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (irix5*, library_names_spec): add soname_spec,
+ otherwise we can't dlopen
+
+1999-02-08 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: according to Marcus Sundberg <mackan@stacken.kth.se>
+ HP/UX, IRIX, OpenBSD, Digital Unix and SunOS support
+ need_version=no and need_lib_prefix=no,
+ fixed a bug in Solaris' archive_sym_cmds
+
+1999-02-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (ac_cv_sys_global_symbol_pipe): accept TAB in
+ addition to space as separator, and allow more than one space
+ between the symbol code and the symbol name; HP/UX's nm, for
+ example, uses two spaces
+ * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): ditto
+ (bsdi4, deplibs_check_method): variable name was misspelled
+ * libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_preloaded_symbols): rewrite
+ test, so as not to depend on the way global_symbol_pipe is
+ initialized; the current test would get false positives, as
+ global_symbol_pipe was initialized `x=""', not `x='
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): initialize filename if dir is NULL
+ Reported by Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>
+
+1999-02-04 Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): missing space for terminator when
+ allocating memory for shlib_ext
+
+1999-02-03 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopenext): tmp would be trashed if shlib_ext
+ was longer than 3 characters
+
+1999-02-02 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: new config.guess returns *-*-cygwin now instead of
+ *-*-cygwin32. sed -e 's%\(cygwin\|mingw\)32%\1%g' ltconfig.in
+ * ltmain.in: sed -e 's%\(cygwin\|mingw\)32%\1%g' ltmain.in
+
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec, allow_undefined_flag,
+ archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds, old_archive_from_new_cmds):
+ removed duplication of config by assuming that `test $with_gcc =
+ yes' implies gnu ld, otherwise MSVC++ (which I haven't tested
+ since I inheritted the code from Ian Lance Taylor btw!) is implied.
+
+1999-01-28 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * ltmain.in: Reverted this change of Alexandre's from the
+ 1999-01-25; "don't try to use .o instead of .lo just because
+ there's no PIC flag. It loses if --disable-static, and there's
+ not much point if we're referring to the same file anyway...",
+ because not all linkers will accept .lo object names.
+ * ltmain.in: In the case where --disable-static is specified (as
+ noted in Alexandre's log entry), we just link some .o files to
+ prevent the original error.
+ Reported by Andrey Slepuhin <pooh@msu.ru>
+
+1999-01-27 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * libtoolize.in: search for A[MC]_PROG_LIBTOOL, not
+ AM_PROG_LIBTOOL
+ Reported by Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+1999-01-27 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * THANKS: Now that we have a policy, applied it to the existing
+ list. This in no way demeans the work of those people removed
+ from the THANKS file, who are still credited in the ChangeLogs and
+ without who's work, libtool would not work so well on many
+ platforms, but serves to highlight the outstanding and continued
+ contribution the remaining people have made. And I quote, "We
+ reserve THANKS for people who have made major contributions, and
+ leave the credit to the others for the ChangeLog only."
+
+ * THANKS: added Sam Vilain.
+ * ltconfig.in ($echo): When using printf to replace echo the shell
+ expands %s\n to %sn. Changed to use "%s\n" (with quotes).
+ Reported by Sam Vilain <sam.vilain@nz.unisys.com>
+
+1999-01-27 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_file): fix endless loop condition
+ (find_module): filename allocation was off by 1
+
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am (distclean-local): renamed from
+ distclean-hook, that didn't work
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen, non-.la): find_file now returns 0 on
+ failure
+
+ * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): some broken makes don't like
+ macros in targets; replace $(srcdir) with @srcdir@
+ * configure.in (ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST): same problem; expand $srcdir
+
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am (@TOINST@/libltdl.la): if installation is
+ enabled, create to-be-installed libltdl.la within @TOINST@
+ directory
+ (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): even if installation is enabled, build
+ convenience libltdl.la, otherwise builds of random packages may
+ fail if the user happens to enable installation
+ (distclean-hook): wipe out $(TOINST)
+ * libltdl/configure.in: set TOINST and LIBLIBS as appropriate;
+ don't set NOINSTLIBS any more
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am: use libltdl.la
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_file): oops, filenamesize was miscomputed
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_file): allocate filename dynamically
+
+ * libltdl/configure.in (AC_PROG_LIBTOOL): automake does not
+ recognize it and fail, better keep using AM_PROG_LIBTOOL until the
+ next release of automake
+ * demo/configure.in, cdemo/configure.in: ditto
+ * depdemo/configure.in, mdemo/configure.in: ditto
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: make all global strings char[], not char*; check
+ that all calls to malloc() are properly cast
+ (strdup, strchr, strrchr, trim, free_vars): declare as inline
+ (find_module): allocate filename dynamically; support null dir
+ (free_vars): free dir and name only if non-null
+ (lt_dlopen): keep dir as NULL if not given; fix expression that
+ calculated the size of name; only free and name if non-null
+ (lt_dlopenext): allocate tmp dynamically
+
+ * configure.in (pkgdatadir): expand ${PACKAGE} at configure-time,
+ just like automake does
+
+ * configure.in (pkgdatadir): define pkgdatadir explicitly, and
+ comment that automake does not need it, but libtoolize does
+
+ * Makefile.am (aclocaldir): do not set it explicitly, automake
+ does already
+
+ * configure.in (TIMESTAMP): use mkstamp here too
+
+1999-01-27 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * cdemo/configure.in: renamed AM_PROG_LIBTOOL to AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
+ * demo/configure.in: likewise
+ * depdemo/configure.in: likewise
+ * libltdl/configure.in: likewise
+ * mdemo/configure.in: likewise
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: in find_module() check whether libdir is defined,
+ tryall_dlopen(): move deallocation of an already opened handle
+ to lt_dlopen(), allocate the directory in lt_dlopen() dynamically,
+ minor cleanups, fixed memory leak (name)
+ * libtool.m4: renamed all AM_ macros to AC_ and added aliases for
+ compatibilty, updated AC_SYS_NM_PARSE (no undefined symbols,
+ don't count the symbols)
+ * ltconfig.in: added thread_safe_flag_spec (not used yet),
+ added generic variable for linker options "linkopts" in
+ all archive_cmds
+ * ltmain.in: added -thread-safe flag (unused)
+
+1999-01-26 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (LTCONFIG_VERSION): damn!, adding TIMESTAMP doesn't
+ always work, because then different ChangeLog timestamps fail to
+ pass the version test. Instead of forcing both ltconfig and
+ ltmain.sh to be updated every time ChangeLog changes, better
+ revert it
+
+ * ltconfig.in (LTCONFIG_VERSION): add TIMESTAMP, remove
+ explicit quotes and add it to the list of variables to quote
+
+ * ltmain.in: reworded `dropped inter-library dependencies'
+ message, and added a warning about inter-library dependencies even
+ for non-module builds
+
+1999-01-26 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * Makefile.am (install-data-hook): Don't show the if expression
+ that tests for gzip with a conditional error message; just do it
+ quietly and show the error if it fails, or the next action if it
+ succeeds.
+
+ * configure.in: It seems Alexandre accidentally removed the
+ AC_SUBST(pkgdatadir) line recently which breaks libtoolize.
+ Reverted that small change.
+
+1999-01-25 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): test old_name and dlname for NULL,
+ not len==0
+
+ * libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_objdir): yes, appending the "/"
+ in configure.in was much simpler
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (objdir): ditto
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (objdir): string collation isn't portable; strcat
+ "/" explicitly. Or should this be moved to configure.in?
+
+1999-01-25 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: allocate the variables in lt_dlopen() dynamically
+
+1999-01-25 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in (file_magic): use egrep instead of expr to support
+ more general regular expressions
+ (file_regex): remove it; the name is misleading, it's not used
+ anywhere, and probably will never be
+ * ltconfig.in, doc/libtool.texi: ditto
+ * ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*, deplibs_check_method): extend regex to
+ support `LSB dynamic lib' in the output of `file'
+ Reported by Scott D. Heavner <sdh@po.cwru.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.in (dependency_libs, xrpath): add -R switches to
+ dependency_libs only just before creating the .la file; they
+ should not be passed to the C compiler or linker at
+ library-creation time, since we don't know whether it is supported
+
+ * ltconfig.in (freebsd2.2*, hardcode_minus_L): for FreeBSD 2.2.6,
+ this must be `no'
+
+ * mkstamp: move the sed script to extract revision and date
+ information into a separate shell-script, so that we can break
+ lines between commands; FreeBSD's sed doesn't like `;' after `t'
+ Reported by Axel Thimm <Axel.Thimm@physik.fu-berlin.de>
+ * Makefile.am: use mkstamp
+ * THANKS: added Axel Thimm
+
+ * ltmain.in: don't try to use .o instead of .lo just because
+ there's no PIC flag. It loses if --disable-static, and there's
+ not much point if we're referring to the same file anyway...
+
+ * ltmain.in (pass_all=none, droppeddeps): set only if deplibs was
+ non-empty
+
+1999-01-24 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: minor bugfixes, append a "/" the search
+ directory only if necessary
+ * ltconfig.in: added support for FreeBSD >= 3.0
+ (patch from Kurt D. Zeilenga)
+ * THANKS: added Kurt D. Zeilenga
+
+1999-01-24 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): list supported dlopen mechanisms,
+ added function lt_dlopenext(), removed reference to
+ LTDL_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS in LTDL_SET_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: partially reverted Alexandre's dynamic string
+ allocation change (it was not necessary and the code was unreadable),
+ cleanups, removed usr_search_path_size, renamed usr_search_path
+ to user_search_path, in find_module() also check for moved
+ modules, merged find_file() and find_library(),
+ added lt_dlopenext(), in lt_dladdsearchdir() no longer reset
+ the search path if 'search_dir' == NULL and don't use realloc()
+ (might not be available on all platforms),
+ removed __P((void)) in the declaration of lt_dlgetsearchpath()
+ * libltdl/ltdl.h: added lt_dlopenext()
+ * ltconfig.in: AIX archive commands were broken,
+ fixed a MAJOR bug in global_symbol_pipe which caused
+ "demo-shared.test;demo-make.test" to fail (libtool must not extract
+ undefined symbols of libraries, i.e. symcode must not contain 'U')
+ * tests/Makefile.am (clean-local): "make distclean" in cdemo, too
+
+1999-01-22 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): add ChangeLog Revision to
+ TIMESTAMP
+ * configure.in: get values of PACKAGE and VERSION set by
+ AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, and extract only TIMESTAMP from the ChangeLog
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): if we're reusing a previously opened
+ handle, don't reset its name nor add it to the list, and free the
+ name we have allocated
+ Reported by Edouard G. Parmelan <Edouard.Parmelan@France.NCR.COM>
+
+ * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh, TIMESTAMP): let's not assume
+ anything about the format of the date, just that it does not
+ contain `$'
+
+1999-01-22 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * configure.in (date): echo the version number during
+ configuration, and show $date for cvs versions.
+
+ * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Oops. cvs co keyword
+ expansion ate the sed expression! Changed sed separator to '%'
+ because there are '/' in the date. Added missing '\(' to search
+ expression. Inserted a null string to stop cvs from expanding it
+ next time =)O|
+ ($(srcdir)/ltmain.sh): ditto.
+
+1999-01-22 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * Makefile.am (TSDEPS_DIST): dist-time dependencies for timestamps
+ (timestamps, update-timestamps): check whether TSDEPS_DIST are
+ up-to-date and update ltconfig and ltmain.sh if needed
+ (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): depend on TSDEPS; replace @TIMESTAMP@ with
+ the Date tag in the ChangeLog
+ (TSDEPS): empty unless overridden by update-timestamps
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (TIMESTAMP): append timestamp to most
+ references to VERSION
+
+1999-01-22 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * ltmain.in (ild): Revert the change which allowed libtool to
+ link libraries with dependencies on .la libs.
+ * NEWS: Removed reference to win32, incase 1.3 ships before
+ ild is ready.
+ * doc/PLATFORMS: Removed i686-pc-cygwin32, for the same reason.
+ * doc/libtool.texi: Removed win32 refs, for the same reason.
+
+1999-01-22 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in (Xsed): add 1 to Xsed definition that goes into
+ temporary wrapper scripts
+ * libtool.m4: we don't have Xsed here, expand it manually
+ Reported by Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>
+
+1999-01-22 Edouard G. Parmelan <Edouard.Parmelan@France.NCR.COM>
+
+ * ltmain.in (finalize_hardcode_libdirs, finalize_rpath): in
+ platforms that use -rpath, programs must be finalized at
+ installation time, otherwise build-tree programs will
+ prefer installed libraries over build-tree ones
+
+1999-01-22 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am (../libltdl/libtool): if it does not exist,
+ the sub-make for libltdlc.la will take care of it, but we must at
+ least provide an empty rule for it, otherwise the sub-make will
+ never run
+
+ * demo/configure.in, demo/Makefile.am (DLPREOPEN): reverted; it
+ didn't make any difference.

+ space.
+
+1999-01-21 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * libltdl/configure.in: reintroduce code to detect native library
+ extension
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): if a .la file name is given, that's
+ all. Otherwise, lt_dlopen now tries to append .la first. If this
+ fails, it tries the given filename, and, at last, tries to append
+ the native library extension to the given filename.
+ * doc/libtool.texi (lt_dlopen): explain new lookup strategy
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: major rewrite to avoid almost all fixed-size
+ buffers; only `tmp' in lt_dlopen remained. But the code got ugly
+ :-(
+
+ * ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*, finish_cmds): remove erroneous backslash
+
+ * demo/configure.in: set DLPREOPEN to -dlopen if we don't have
+ shared libraries
+ * demo/Makefile.am (DLPREOPEN): use instead of -dlpreopen
+ (STATIC): use $(STATIC), not @STATIC@
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am (STATIC): ditto
+
+ * tests/demo-shared.test, tests/demo-static.test: new tests
+ * tests/mdemo-shared.test, tests/mdemo-static.test: ditto
+ * tests/Makefile.am: ditto
+ * doc/libtool.texi: document them
+ * demo/Makefile.am, mdemo/Makefile.am (STATIC): do not use
+ -static unconditionally, it can't work with --disable-static
+ * demo/configure.in, mdemo/configure.in: check whether libtool was
+ configured to build static libraries and, if not, set STATIC to an
+ empty string
+
+1999-01-20 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in (module, droppeddeps): if libtool could not satisfy
+ all dependencies of a module, it will only build a static version
+ of it, and display a warning message
+
+1999-01-20 Erez Zadok <ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu>

+ * demo/dlmain.c (main): add missing const to declaration of name
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (find_module): remove the libdir argument, and

+
+ * ltconfig.in (bsdi4*, netbsd*, uts4*, library_names_spec,

+ full pathname of non-libtool library is provided
+
+ * libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_preloaded_symbols,
+ HAVE_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS): test whether we support -dl*open
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (!HAVE_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS, lt_preloaded_symbols):
+ define it to an empty list if libtool won't generate it, so as to
+ avoid link errors. This will cause silent dlopening failures, but
+ maybe this is better than failing to link the program...
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.h (LTDL_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS): remove it; better to
+ declare lt_preloaded_symbols
+ * doc/libtool.texi (LTDL_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS): ditto

+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: some cleanups (moved constants to the beginning

+ in find_file() and find_module()), renamed lt_dlpreopen* to

+
+ * ltconfig.in (need_lib_prefix, need_version,

+ remembered that this needs porting; unknown is interpreted as yes,
+ yes and none, respectively
+ (freebsd2*, freebsd3*, sunos4*, need_version): set to yes
+ (freebsd2*, freebsd3*, library_names_spec): libraries without a
+ version number are not used by `ld'; add $versuffix;
+ Reported by Ben Jackson <ben@ben.com>
+ * ltmain.in (deplibs_check_method): alias unknown to none

+
+1999-01-14 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+

+1999-01-14 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * THANKS: added Mark Elbrecht.

+ * ltconfig.in: Use PATH_SEPARATOR instead of hardcoded `:'.
+ Reported by Mark Elbrecht <snowball3@usa.net>
+
+ * cdemo/README: typo: mdemo->cdemo
+
+1999-01-14 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * autogen: fake the libtool scripts to help fixing
+ the bootstrapping problem
+ * Makefile.am: always configure libltdl, however after building
+ the libtool scripts,
+ build the libtool scripts in builddir, not srcdir
+ (unfortunately this breaks building when srcdir!=objdir,
+ but it was just plain wrong - needs to be fixed),
+ build and install libltdl.tar.gz,
+ copy acinclude.m4 instead of linking them, so that we
+ can 'make dist' in libltdl,
+ fixed configuring of subdirectories
+ * configure.in: removed --enable-ltdl-install - libltdl is supposed
+ to be installed by packages, not by libtool itself
+ * libtoolize.in: new flags --ltdl and --ltdl-tar to install libltdl
+ in packages (--ltdl doesn't work yet),
+ install only the necessary libtool scripts, not just all
+ files in pkgdatadir
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am: removed the rule for libltdl configuration
+
+1999-01-13 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

+
+ * demo/dlmain.c, libltdl/ltdl.c, ltconfig.in, ltmain.in,

+ * cdemo/configure.in: don't check for string.h
+ * demo/dlmain.c: renamed dld_symlist to lt_symlist,
+ preloaded symbols are 'const', use lt_ptr_t instead of void*
+ * demo/foo.h: define lt_ptr_t
+ * doc/libtool.texi: document lt_preloaded_symbols correctly
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am, mdemo/Makefile.am: renamed libtest to libltdlc
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: fixed some minor typos, renamed dldpre to presym,
+ bugfix: search in search_path only if we have no directory
+ and a search_path, in lt_dlsym() check whether symbol != 0
+ * libltdl/ltdl.h: removed lt_dlpreopen_default()
+ * ltconfig.in (dlpreopen): removed dld_preloaded_symbol_count
+ * ltmain.in: added help for -avoid-versioning, -export-symbols,

+ -dlpreopen is used
+ * mail/deplibs.html: added Gordon Matzigkeit's inter-library
+ dependencies article
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am: removed -export-dynamic from LDFLAGS
+ (no longer necessary, since libtool defines lt_preloaded_symbols
+ when -dlopen is used), initialize with lt_preloaded_symbols

+
+ * ltconfig.in (solaris): Define `deplibs_check_method',
+ `file_magic_command', `need_lib_prefix' and `sys_lib_search_path'
+ * ltmain.in (file_magic_regex): Add space before matching pattern,
+ such that it works on solaris (solaris has a tab between the
+ library name (including the colon) and the `ELF' and such the
+ `ELF' will never be matched).
+
+1999-01-13 Edouard G. Parmelan <Edouard.Parmelan@France.NCR.COM>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (NM): PATH search was not updated like in
+ libtool.m4, in last Alexandre Oliva's change to it
+ (sysv4*, ncr): pass all library dependencies
+ * ltmain.in (dependency_libs, -R): use `deplib' instead of `arg' to
+ iterate, otherwise we'd overwrite `arg'
+ (convenience, old_libs): if --disable-shared, convenience
+ libraries are just old archives, as .lo's are of no use
+ * tests/cdemo-static.test: print --disable-shared here
+
+1999-01-13 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * libltdl/configure.in (libltdl_cv_shlibext, LTDL_SHLIB_EXT):
+ system-dependent extension of shared libraries
+ (libltdl_cv_shlibpath_var, LTDL_SHLIBPATH_VAR): system-dependent
+ run-time shared library search path
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (dldpre_init, dldpre_exit): unrelate init/exit
+ from add/remove symlists, so one may add dld_preloaded_symbols
+ from main(), when only a library will call dldpre_init
+ (lt_dlopen): use LTDL_SHLIBPATH_VAR, if defined, as secondary
+ search path. Also, if a requested .la file cannot be found, try
+ with the LTDL_SHLIB_EXTension instead.
+
+ * ltmain.in (old_archives, oldobjs): use find to SYMDEF here too
+
+ * Makefile.am (@DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST@): `$' must be doubled
+
+ * configure.in (AC_CONFIG_DIRS): configure only libltdl, and then,
+ only if --enable-ltdl-install
+ (CONF_SUBDIRS): list directories that are configured on demand,
+ but that must be included in the distribution
+ (ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST, DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST): generated from CONF_SUBDIRS
+ * Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): added version 1.3e and
+ readme-alpha, to handle README-alpha automatically
+ (EXTRA_DIST): removed README-alpha
+ (BUILD_SUBDIRS): subdirectories that are always built
+ (SUBDIRS): BUILD_SUBDIRS plus BUILD_LTDL
+ (DIST_SUBDIRS): BUILD_SUBDIRS plus CONF_SUBDIRS, from configure
+ (all-local, check-local): depend on $(ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST), from
+ configure, and libtool, so that it is built before subdirs
+ (configure-subdirs): new target
+ (configure-subdirs, distdir): depend on $(DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST),
+ from configure
+ (@DIST_MAKEFILE_LIST@): create subdir if needed, then run
+ configure.
+ On-demand configuration of subdirs at distribution time was
+ suggested by Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): search for NM in PATH before
+ /usr/ccs/bin, /usr/ucb and /bin. However, if the found one isn't
+ BSD-compat keep searching. If no BSD-compat is found, use the
+ first we found.

+
+1999-01-12 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ltmain.in: before using LN_S remove the symlink
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: support multiple symbol lists, moved library-
+ and file searching to separate functions, renamed "preload_libs"

+ * libltdl/ltdl.h: declare the lt_dlsymlist type for lt_dlpreopen()

+
+1999-01-12 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>

+
+1999-01-11 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in, NEWS, doc/libtool.texi: Added support for -R flag
+ * ltmain.in, doc/libtool.texi: documented that -rpath is the same
+ as -R for programs
+ * ltmain.in: softened the instructions for linking with installed
+ libraries, and noted that libtool can be used to link with them;
+ documented that -rpath is not required for convenience libraries
+
+ * ltconfig.in (symxfrm): don't print $pipe_works twice, once for
+ each $ac_symprfx
+ Reported by Godmar Back <gback@cs.utah.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.in (convenience, libobjs): get only .o and .lo files from
+ the files extract from the convenience library. Some systems,
+ such as FreeBSD2, will add a SYMDEF file, that is not an object
+ file, and therefore should not be fed to the linker
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_NM_PARSE): while we are at it, we may well
+ cache the value of ac_cv_sys_symbol_underscore
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_NM_PARSE): need for underscore prefix is now
+ auto-detected, by trying first without, then with it.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: ditto
+
+1999-01-10 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * configure.in (AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS): add libltdl, demo, mdemo and

+ (BUILD_LTDL): will contain libltdl if --enable-ltdl-install
+ * Makefile.am (DIST_SUBDIRS): expand SUBDIRS and add depdemo,
+ commented out
+ (SUBDIRS): add $(BUILT_LTDL)
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am (EXTRA_LTLIBRARIES): add libtest.la, the
+ same as libltdl but always a convenience library. Not built by
+ default. Both libraries now depend on the libtool script, that
+ depends on ../libtool and is rebuilt when needed
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am (mdemo, mdemo.debug): depend on and link with
+ ../libltdl/libtest.la, that is rebuilt if needed
+ (mdemo_LDADD): removed $(LIBADD_M), to avoid silent failures
+ (foo1.la): renamed from libfoo1.la; test removing the lib prefix
+ * mdemo/foo1.c: renamed libfoo1_LTX symbols to foo1_LTX
+ * mdemo/main.c: don't include string.h nor math.h, nor refer to
+ sin nor cos
+ * tests/mdemo-exec.test: renamed libfoo1.la to foo1.la
+ * tests/mdemo-inst.test: ditto
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (FILENAME_MAX): use it instead of MAX_FILENAME,
+ and don't redefine it if already defined; default to 1024, as on
+ most systems
+ (LT_SYMBOL_LENGTH): renamed from MAX_SYMBOL_LENGTH
+ (LT_SYMBOL_OVERHEAD): new macro, that accounts for the size of
+ the _LTX_ separator and the initial underscore
+ (lt_dlsym): sym now points to a stack buffer (lsym) if possible,
+ or is dynamically allocated. If allocation fails, a
+ buffer_overflow_error is returned.
+
+1999-01-10 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ltmain.in: define dld_preloaded_symbols if at least one of

+ if -export-dynamic was not enabled
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: limit symbols to max. 256 bytes
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am: build libltdl in a subdirectory,
+ do not use -export-dynamic for mdemo and mdemo.debug
+ * tests/mdemo-conf.test,tests/mdemo-make.test,tests/mdemo-inst.test:
+ do not check for libltdl
+
+1999-01-09 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlopen): missing strlen in bound test
+
+1999-01-09 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * NEWS: support for BSD/OS 4.x was not documented
+ * demo/Makefile.am: link against libm only if available
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am: likewise, use -avoid-versioning flag
+ instead of -avoid-version (typo)
+ * demo/configure.in: check for libm, string.h and math.h
+ * mdemo/configure.in: likewise
+ * depdemo/configure.in: check for libm and math.h
+ * libltdl/configure.in: check for dlerror
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: check for buffer overflows, implemented
+ dlerror, fixed a severe bug which occured when opening
+ non-libtool modules, dlopen with the flags GLOBAL and NOW
+ * mdemo/main.c: report the error using lt_dlerror()
+
+1999-01-08 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * doc/libtool.texi (old_archive_from_new_commands): Documented
+ this ltcofig variable.
+
+1999-01-07 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * ltmain.sh (cygwin, allow_undefined): Unfortunately, there are
+ problems with this variable when trying to make a dll which has
+ undefined symbols, in which case not even a static library is
+ built. For now, we need to specify -no-undefined on the libtool
+ link line when we can be certain that all symbols are satisfied,
+ otherwise we get a static library.
+
+1999-01-06 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ChangeLog: merged in tests/ChangeLog
+ * tests/ChangeLog: deleted
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: assigned copyright to the FSF

+
+1999-01-06 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * ltmain.in (dllsearchpath): add absolute directory paths to
+ dllsearchpath so that the wrapper scripts can be called from any
+ directory (e.g. tests) on cygwin.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (cygwin, library_names_spec): revert Alexandre's
+ change from yesterday to use `-dll.a' suffix. That change caused
+ $libname-dll.a to be a symlink to $soname, which isn't even an
+ `ar' archive. Before the import library suffix can be changed, we
+ need to figure out how to handle building objects differently for
+ linking with an import library versus an equivalent static library.
+
+ * TODO: Added details of a Linux wrapper script bug.
+ Reported by Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>.
+
+1999-01-05 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in (libobjs_save, oldobjs): when building an

+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.h (_LTDLL_EXPORT, _LTDLL_IMPORT): use cygwin or
+ unix library import/export primitives; this may be convenient for
+ people willing to create DLLs
+ (_LTDLL_EXTERN): select _LTDLL_EXPORT or _LTDLL_IMPORT depending
+ on _LTDL_COMPILE_
+ * libltdl/ltdl.h, libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dlpreopen): new function,
+ that replaces the current preloaded_symbols list with its
+ argument, and returns the old value, initially NULL
+ (dldpre_init): don't refer to dld_preloaded_symbols any more
+ (dldpre_open, dldpre_sym): search preloaded_symbols
+ (lt_dlpreopen_default): call lt_dlpreopen with
+ dld_preloaded_symbols, that is declared as extern; it should be
+ called from the main program or from some static library without
+ -no-undefined
+ (lt_dlerror): new function, that returns the error message for the
+ last error occurred; the error message is kept in the static
+ variable last_error
+ * libltdl/configure.in (enable-ltdl-install): moved back from
+ enable-install; other packages might use enable-install already,
+ better have fine grained control over this.
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am (libltdls.la): discarded
+
+1999-01-05 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * configure.in: do not configure libltdl by default
+ * Makefile.am: do not build libltdl by default
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am: ltdls.lo depends on libtool
+ * tests/Makefile.am: before starting the tests
+ make sure that libtool was build
+ * tests/mdemo-conf.test: configure libltdl
+ * tests/mdemo-make.test: build libltdl
+
+1999-01-05 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in (SP2NL, NL2SP): Don't delete empty lines, as this
+ would lose for files with embedded blanks.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (cygwin, archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds): Moved
+ ltdll.c into ltmain.in, to avoid its duplication, and added a sed
+ script to extract it. Also, create def and base files in $objdir,
+ and don't remove them after the compilation.
+ (cygwin, library_names_spec): Create static part of the dll with
+ suffix -dll.a, to avoid conflicts with actual static libraries.
+ * ltmain.in: Added ltdll.c, as commented out text
+
+1999-01-01 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * NEWS: new BeOS support
+ * THANKS: added Joseph Beckenbach
+ * libltdl/ltdl.h: use dllimport/export on Win32
+
+1998-12-31 Joseph Beckenbach III <jrb3@best.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: added support for BeOS
+ * ltmain.in (shlibpath_var): added a workaround for
+ an odd bug in the BeOS R4 sed
+
+1998-12-31 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * verified all copyright notices
+ and updated them to 1999
+ * TODO: added some things that need to documented
+ * doc/libtool.texi: -export-symbols is not
+ supported on all platforms
+ * doc/PLATFORMS: added a few new platforms
+
+1998-12-30 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * NEWS: updated
+ * THANKS: added Todd Vierling <tv@pobox.com>
+
+1998-12-30 Todd Vierling <tv@pobox.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: improved shared object handling on both
+ a.out and ELF platforms for NetBSD
+
+1998-12-29 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: do not rely on a leading space when concatenating
+ variables as suggested by Erez Zadok
+ * ltmain.in: likewise
+ * doc/PLATFORMS: updated and reformatted
+ (thanks to Erez Zadok for the testing)
+
+1998-12-27 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * THANKS: added Erez Zadok <ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu>
+
+1998-12-26 Erez Zadok <ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: support i486-ncr-sysv4.3.03
+ shared libraries.
+
+ * ltmain.in: before every ln -s, remove the link name
+
+1998-12-25 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * depdemo/configure.in: removed last relics of demo
+ * depdemo/sysdep.h: ditto
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am: ditto
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am: fixed the version number, build libltdls if
+ -enable-install and -enable-dlpreopen are enabled
+ * libltdl/configure.in: libltdl is version 0.1, not 1.0,
+ renamed -enable-ltdl-install to -enable-install,
+ conditionals for libltdls, check for strchr and index,
+ replaced NULL with 0
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: replaced NULL with 0, dlpreopen only if
+ USE_DLPREOPEN was defined, integrated shl_load code from GModule
+ (still untested)
+
+1998-12-24 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * libltdl/configure.in: fixup spacing in --enable-ltdl-install
+ help string so that it lines up nicely for configure --help.
+
+ * ltmain.in (dllsearchpath): keep track of what the dll search path
+ will need to be in the wrapper scripts as deplibs are calculated.
+ Make sure the wrapper script doesn't end in `.exr', which makes
+ win32 try to execute it as a binary!
+ Add the contents of dllsearchpath to $PATH in the wrapper script.
+ Use the relative path to the wrapped program so that the dll
+ search path is calculated properly by win32 OSes.
+ * TODO: removed the item for making wrapper scripts work on win32.
+
+ * TODO: removed the reference to making libltdl and demo work on
+ win32. They *do* work now that wrapper scripts are functioning.
+
+ * ltmain.in (file_magic_command): It turns out that if the
+ file_magic_command generates huge output (e.g. running `objdump
+ -f' over a large import lib [say libX11.a]) the expr to check it
+ against the file_magic_regex blows up. There is now an optimistic
+ heuristic, to save only the first 10 lines of running
+ file_magic_command which (at risk of sounding like Bill) should be
+ enough for anyone =)O|.
+
+ * ltmain.in: Set the compile_dependencylibs and dllsearchpath for
+ non-libtool libs, or else libdeps only works between ltlibs for
+ cygwin32.
+
+1998-12-23 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in (SP2NL, NL2SP): use `tr' magic to avoid passing very
+ long lines to sed
+ * doc/libtool.texi (sed): very long lines are no longer a problem
+
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am: install libltdl conditionally...
+ * libltdl/configure.in: ... if --enable-ltdl-install is issued
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: removed #ifdef DEBUG
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am (mdemo_debug_LDADD, mdemo_debug_DEPENDENCIES):
+ use libltdl.la
+
+1998-12-23 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * doc/PLATFORMS: added my cygwin32 box (i686-pc-cygwin32).
+
+ * TODO: remind myself of the win32 tasks remaining.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds,
+ old_archive_from_new_cmds): Fixed a bug which left an a.exe in the
+ build directory. Fixed a bug where $soname-def was never deleted.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (file_magic_command): new variable holds the command
+ (including any args) to run to generate the string to match
+ against the regex in $file_magic. Use the variable where
+ necessary. Added to libtool header output.
+ (deplibs_check_method): use file_magic for win32, but compare the
+ output of `objdump -f' with the regex (see below).
+ (archive_cmds, archive_sym_cmds): use compile_dependencylibs for
+ each $CC invokation (see below).
+
+ * ltmain.in: Set allow_undefined to `no' for win32 variants by
+ default, otherwise it is impossible to link a dll without forcing
+ the makefile maintainer to figure out whether to pass
+ --no-undefined at every libtool invokation.
+ (compile_dependencylibs): save the list of dependency library
+ flags needed for a deplib build on win32.
+ (link_against_libtool_libs): commented out the check for this; if
+ it is left in, then ltlibs (i.e. *.la files) cannot be deplibs for
+ subsequent links.
+ Don't add -lc to the deplibs line for win32 platforms (which don't
+ have a libc as such).
+ (file_magic_command): use this to get some output to compare with
+ the file_magic regex (instead of hardcoding `file' which doesn't
+ exist on win32.
+ * doc/libtool.texi (Porting inter-library dependencies): Updated
+ to document the changes above.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (deplibs_check_method): Changed the file_magic regex
+ to match more linux variants. This is less lenient than Thomas
+ Tanner's commit to fix the same problem below.
+ Reported by Joel Klecker <espy@debian.org>
+ * THANKS: added Joel Klecker <espy@debian.org>
+
+1998-12-23 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: fixed file-magic for Linux shared libraries
+ * ltmain.in: removed the unused -force-static flag
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: added strchr, search modules in LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH,
+ check whether actual module was already dlopened,
+ read in preload_libs rather than dependency_libs
+
+1998-12-23 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am: build two versions of libltdl:
+ libltdl (support native dlopen if available, otherwise dlpreopen),
+ libltdls (like libltdl, but always support for dlpreopen)
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: ditto
+ * libltdl/configure.in: warn if dlopen is not supported
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am (mdemo.debug): use libltdls
+
+1998-12-22 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: revert Thomas Tanners change to create all
+ libraries without the `lib' prefix on win32, otherwise `gcc foo.c
+ -lbar' can't find libbar.a.
+
+1998-12-22 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): prepend `.' to avoid am-recursive
+ dependency hack
+
+1998-12-21 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: indentation is now 8 character wide tabs
+ * ltmain.in: ditto
+ * ChangeLog: ditto
+ * ltmain.in: renamed check_shared_deplibs_method to
+ deplibs_check_method (we_dont_want_too_long_variable_names :)
+ * doc/libtool.texi (Porting inter-library dependencies): ditto
+ * depdemo/.cvsignore: renamed hell* to depdemo*, added *.lo,*.la
+ * mdemo/.cvsignore: ditto
+
+1998-12-21 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_NM_PARSE): apparently __ptr_t is predefined
+ on some systems - use lt_ptr_t instead.
+ * ltconfig.in: ditto.
+ * ltmain.in: ditto.
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE): use an AC_SUBST to pass
+ the result of this into the compile rather than AC_DEFINE which
+ breaks when building with older versions of autoconf.
+ * ltconfig.in (symxfrm): Don't put the leading underscore back
+ with the global_symbol_pipe.
+ * demo/dlmain.c (main): No need to specialcase underscores in
+ dld_preloaded_symbols - it is fixed by symxfrm above!
+ * libltdl/configure.in: use AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE from
+ libtool.m4 rather than reinvent the wheel here =)O|
+
+ * ltmain.in: Fix deplibs methods to not rely on a.out (cygwin
+ uses a.exe!).
+
+ * libltdl/configure.in: Cleanups - fix header comment and emacs
+ local-vars.
+
+ * demo/dlmain.c (win32_force_data_import_address): a nasty hack
+ to force the address of imported data symbols into
+ dld_preloaded_symbols on win32, which does data imports
+ differently to function imports (sheesh!). This functionality
+ needs to be moved into the dld_preloaded_symbols generation code.
+ demo/helldl with static linking is broken on win32 by this change,
+ probably until after libtool-1.3 =(O|
+ * demo/foo.h: make sure __CYGWIN32__ is always defined on cygwin32
+ systems. Use the correct __declspec macro for lib exports/imports
+ on cygwin32.
+ * demo/foo.c, demo/hello.c: Make sure we tell foo.h that these
+ sources are inside libfoo, and want to export symbols.
+
+1998-12-20 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * autogen: configure demo, depdemo, libltdl and mdemo
+ * tests/mdemo-exec.test: renamed hell* to mdemo*
+ * tests/mdemo-inst.test: ditto
+
+1998-12-19 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am: build a normal libtool library
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: get LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH but don't make use of it yet,
+ some reformatting
+ * ltmain.in: fixed a bug which listed symbols in
+ dld_preloaded_symbols twice
+ * TODO: removed symbol export lists and deplibs
+
+1998-12-18 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: added need_lib_prefix and need_version,
+ which determine whether we must prefix modules with 'lib'
+ and whether versioning is required for libraries.
+ * ltmain.in: allow modules names without 'lib' prefix,
+ new -avoid-versioning option
+ * doc/libtool.texi (link flags): updated documentation for -module,
+ added -avoid-versioning
+ * doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents):
+ documented the two new flags and archive_sym_cmds
+ * doc/libtool.texi (tests):
+ added (partially very short) documentation for assign.test,
+ nomode.test, quote.test, sh.test
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: canonicalize module names,
+ some cleanups and bugfixes, __ptr_t is predefined on
+ some systems - use lt_ptr_t instead
+ * mdemo/: renamed hell* to mdemo* (hell is already used in
+ demo), updated the documentation, import sin and cos in main
+ program rather than linking libfoo1 statically
+
+1998-12-17 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Added AC_PREREQ(2.12) to prevent
+ people using libtool with old autoconfs that don't provide the
+ features we need.
+
+1998-12-16 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * NEWS, configure.in, libtool.spec: Bumped to 1.2e for CVS
+
+ * NEWS, configure.in, libtool.spec: Bumped to 1.2d for release
+
+ * Makefile.am (cvs-dist): our release tags are in lower case
+ (cvs-diff): ditto

+ * README-alpha: minor adaptations
+ * demo/Makefile.am, mdemo/Makefile.am, depdemo/Makefile.am:
+ removed comment about special needs for distribution
+ * depdemo/Makefile.am: don't generate dependencies
+ * depdemo/configure.in: modified version number
+
+ * ltmain.in (-force-static, force_static): removed
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am (CFLAGS): ditto
+ * libltdl/configure.in: check for memory.h, rindex() and
+ dlpreopening. Fixed NEED_USCORE caching policy.
+ * libltdl/ltdl.h (lt_dlsym): make the name argument const
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (types): new variable: head of list of available
+ dlopening mechanisms
+ (lt_dltype_t): interface of a dlopening mechanism, with pointers
+ to functions for init, exit, open, close and sym
+ (lt_dlhandle_t): added pointer to interface type
+ (strdup): don't name it strdup; it can be troublesome
+ (strrchr): ditto; use rindex if available
+ (LIBTOOL_STATIC): check HAVE_DLPREOPEN instead, and move to the
+ end of the file, so that it becomes the header of the list
+ (all): renamed all interface-implementation functions, to avoid
+ name clashes, and created lt_dltype_t nodes for all of them
+ (lt_dlinit): initialize all available interfaces; remove those
+ that fail from the list. Return failure only if no interfaces
+ could be initialized.
+ (lt_dlexit): return number of failures
+ (tryall_dlopen): try to open the library with all available
+ interfaces
+ (lt_dlopen): use tryall_dlopen; increased size of fixed buffers.
+ We should probably make these bound-checked or dynamically
+ allocated for the final release! Fix bug when filename did not
+ contain slashes; should we check for `\\' too? Try old_library if
+ everything else fails.
+ (lt_dlclose): use the interface type for closing
+ (lt_dlsym): make `symbol' const, use interface type for looking up
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am: moved mdemo/modules/* back into mdemo
+ (SUBDIRS): removed
+ (libfoo2_la_LDFLAGS): added -static; nice test. However, since it
+ causes -lm to linked into hell*, it causes tests that should fail
+ to pass
+ (noinst_HEADERS): no need to install foo.h
+ * mdemo/configure.in: remove modules/Makefile
+ tests/mdemo-exec.test: updated accordingly
+
+ * NEWS: Added Thomas Tanner and Gary V. Vaughan to the list of new
+ maintainers. Detailed expected failures of libtldl+mdemo. Listed
+ recent ports. Added full URL for the home page. Note that
+ libtool C program is unusable.

+
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): removed, nothing needed

+ * tests/mdemo-unst.test: ditto
+ * doc/libtool.texi: ditto
+
+ * ltmain.in (-DSTATIC): changed to -DLIBTOOL_STATIC, and defined
+ only for -force-static; it should be removed soon, before people
+ start to use it
+
+ * configure.in (AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS): added libltdl
+ * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): build libltdl by default
+ (DIST_SUBDIRS): simplify distribution of demo and mdemo
+ (libtool, clibtool, libtoolize, ltconfig, ltmain.sh): add
+ srcdir where appropriate
+ (ACINCLUDE_M4_LIST): new rule for maintaining links from
+ acinclude.m4 to libtool.m4
+ (*demo/Makefile.in): don't update autoconf/automake files any
+ more; make check is needed
+
+1998-12-14 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): tweaked for cygwin b18->b20.1
+ compatibility and fixed a bug with generating the export
+ definitions file. This is only tested on b20.1, but should
+ work back to b18 at least.
+
+1998-12-11 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ltmain.in: -module implies now -export-dynamic,
+ dlpreopen files if we're linking statically
+ * doc/libtool.texi (link flags): added documentation for -module
+ and the tests for mdemo and libltdl
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am: replaced -dlpreopen with -dlopen
+
+1998-12-09 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * PORTING: removed the text Akim Demaille converted to .texi
+
+1998-12-09 Akim Demaille <demaille@inf.enst.fr>
+
+ * doc/libtool.texi: converted inter-library dependencies
+ instructions from PORTING
+
+1998-12-09 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in (convenience, deplibs): propagate dependencies
+ * libltdl/Makefile.am (noinst_HEADERS): don't install ltdl.h yet
+ (noinst_LTLIBRARIES): ditto for libltdl.la
+
+1998-12-08 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * README-alpha: adapted the release procedure from
+ automake/HACKING.
+ * Makefile.am: adapted the cvs-dist and cvs-diff rules from
+ automake/Makefile.am. I guess this is probably safe to use
+ already, but I didn't test it as it tags the CVS tree. If
+ it needs tweaking, we'll find out come 1.2d.
+
+1998-12-08 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: fixed some typos in archive_sym_cmds
+ * ltmain.in: replaced basename with a sed expression
+
+1998-12-07 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * configure.in: we no longer use PRCS
+
+ * doc/libtool.texi (author): listed all the AUTHORS
+ (Dlopen issues): added reference to libltdl, still undocumented
+ (C++ libraries): it's not *that* simple, after all :-(
+ (Inter-library dependencies): they're back!
+
+1998-12-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (ac_cv_sys_symbol_underscore): `test a == b' doesn't
+ work, use `test a = b' instead
+
+ * Makefile.am (mdemo_distfiles): libfoo[12].sym no longer exist
+
+ * ltconfig.in (solaris): do not use $CC for linking if GNU ld is
+ not available
+
+1998-12-04 Manfred Weichel <Manfred.Weichel@pdb.siemens.de>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Port to SCO UnixWare 7.x.
+
+1998-12-03 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ChangeLog: converted CR/LF back to CR format
+ * ltconfig.in: new variable sys_lib_search_path for searching
+ of installed libraries, export archive_sym_cmds and
+ sys_lib_search_path
+ * ltmain.in: use sys_lib_search_path, removed extradeplibs
+ (they're not portable)
+
+1998-12-02 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * libltdl/configure.in: look for string.h or else strings.h, and
+ also check for ANSI strrchr() function. Fix `undescore before
+ symbols' macro to not rely on a.out (cygwin uses a.exe!). Fix
+ `underscore for dlsym' to set cache variable properly, not just in
+ environment of AC_DEFINE(NEED_USCORE).
+ * libltdl/ltdl.h (__ptr_t): for K&R compatibility using char*.
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c (strrchr): fallback function incase none is
+ defined in libc.
+ (trim, ltdlopen): replace rindex with ANSI strrchr.
+ Add static function declarations so that we get type checking with
+ ANSI compilers. Use __ptr_t instead of void*.
+
+1998-12-01 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: added -export-symbols support for GNU ld and
+ Solaris (untested), archive_sym_cmds for -export-symbols
+ * doc/libtool.texi, ltmain.in: -export-symbols is now
+ independent from -export-dynamic and does not work for modules
+ anymore
+ * ltmain.in: added some checks for -export-symbols
+ * mdemo/modules/Makefile.am: replaced -export-symbols with
+ -export-dynamic since it doesn't work for modules
+
+1998-12-01 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * README: Updated homepage pointer to gnu libtool page.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (ltdll.c): update the ltdll.c file for cygwinb20.
+ Based on code from Mumit Khan <khan@xraylith.wisc.edu>.
+ (archive_cmds): correct typo libtool.c->ltdll.c. Update shell
+ commands for cygwin32.
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE): New macro; find out
+ whether compiled symbols have an extra leading underscore.
+ (AM_SYS_NM_PARSE): New macro (converted to m4 from ltconfig.in);
+ find a sed expression to parse global symbols from the output of
+ $NM.
+ (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): require AM_SYS_NM_PARSE and
+ AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE.
+ * demo/dlmain.c (main): Remove a single leading underscore from
+ compiled symbol names if necessary.
+
+1998-12-01 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * config.guess, config.sub: imported from autoconf pre-2.13
+
+1998-11-27 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * libtool (AM_PROG_LD): Oops... we need to know the host_os for
+ the changes below. I'm not sure whether mingw32 and os2 support
+ UNC paths, if they did we wouldn't need the check, we could use
+ UNC paths on all three; or if the bug with $LD not being
+ shell-meta escaped was fixed, we could use '\\' separators on all
+ three. AC_REQUIRE'ed AC_CANONICAL_HOST.
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD): Cannonicalize the absolute path for the
+ ld program; The order is funny to provide canonicalization to
+ paths with '\\' separators as well as '/'.
+ * ltconfig.in: ditto.
+
+ * AUTHORS: Added myself as a co-maintainer.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): The `;\' in a compound statement is
+ expanded wrongly for cygwin32, mingw32, aix3 and aix4. Changed to
+ `;'.
+
+1998-11-25 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+

+
+ * ltmain.in (pass_all): actively pass the flags
+
+1998-11-24 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * depdemo: added inter-library dependencies demo (doesn't work yet!)
+ * AUTHORS: added myself to the list of maintainers
+
+1998-11-22 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * libltdl: added support for .la files, LGPL license,
+ K&R compatibility, some API changes and bugfixes
+ * ltmain.in: renamed -module flag (for compiling) to -force-static,

+
+1998-11-21 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * libltdl/ltdl.c: replace NULL with 0, so that we don't depend on
+ header files defining it.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, osf3, osf4, solaris, sunos4): create
+ libraries with gcc -shared if using gcc without GNU ld.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: replaced occurrences of solaris2 with solaris, to
+ prepare for Solaris 7
+
+1998-11-19 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am (hell_debug_LDFLAGS): -dlpreopen -> -dlopen

+ * mdemo/modules/Makefile.am: new file
+
+ * */Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): added no-dependencies
+
+ * ltmain.in: missing `test' between `&&' and `"$module"'
+
+ * ltconfig.in (echo_test_string): the whole ltconfig script was
+ too much for DU4.0's ksh, but the first 50 lines will be enough.
+
+ * ltmain.in (installed): new variable defined within a .la file,
+ so that libtool can now link already-installed libraries into a
+ program.
+ * NEWS: ditto
+ * doc/libtool.texi (Linking executables): document it
+
+ * ltmain.in (output_objdir): compute it from $output, not $arg
+

+ * tests/mdemo-unst.test (libltdl): uninstall it

+
+ * NEWS: -module and libtldl
+ * mdemo/Makefile.am: ../libltdl is within $(srcdir)
+
+1998-11-18 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * libltdl, Makefile.am: added libltdl (a system independent
+ dlopen wrapper library extracted from mdemo)
+ * ltmain.in: added -module flag for compiling and linking of
+ modules. If enabled it compiles always both .o (with -DLT_RENAME)
+ and .lo files
+ * mdemo: modified mdemo to work with libltdl
+ * tests/ltdl*: added tests for libltdl
+
+1998-11-16 Steve Price <sprice@hiwaay.net>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: when $host_os is freebsd[23]* determine whether
+ the current linker format is a.out or ELF
+ * ltmain.in: add two new $version_type's, freebsd-aout and
+ freebsd-elf, to support above change
+
+1998-11-16 Stephan Kulow <coolo@kde.org>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: extent no_builtin_flag to contain -fno-rtti and
+ -fno-exceptions in case we compile with a gcc, that supports
+ this options (egcs and gcc >= 2.8)
+
+1998-11-16 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in (C_compiler): copy $CC before it is overwritten with
+ command-line compiler, so that we can use it to compile C sources
+ generated during the build. This fixes the problem that showed up
+ with -export-dynamic of C++ programs in egcs 1.1.
+ * NEWS: ditto
+
+1998-11-12 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * PORTING: Porting instructions are in the libtool manual already
+
+ * NEWS: Mention -export-symbols and new dlpreopen
+
+1998-11-11 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in (IFS): revert Gary's patch when parsing version
+ information; we still use `:' here :-)
+
+ * NEWS: updated
+ * PORTING: new file, with general instructions and inter-library
+ dependencies tips
+
+1998-11-11 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: make use of '~' field separator in reload_cmds,
+ old_archive_from_new_cmds, old_archive_cmds, archive_cmds,
+ old_postinstall_cmds, postinstall_cmds, old_postuninstall_cmds,
+ postuninstall_cmds and finish_cmds, so that the semi-colons inside
+ if/then/else/fi and for/do/done etc. do not break the eval loop in
+ ltmain.in (below).
+ * ltmain.in: changed all of the eval loops to use an IFS of `~',
+ to allow differentiation between the end-of-statement-;
+ (now `~' is used) and end-of-substatement-; (still `;'). This
+ fixes AIX and win32 at least.
+
+1998-11-11 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (sunos*, sympat, symxfrm): remove underscore
+ prepended by the compiler

+
+1998-11-07 William M. Perry <wmperry@aventail.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (aix3, aix4): uniquify symbol names in archive_cmds
+
+1998-11-07 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: add --falback-echo, to be used if everything else
+ fails. The tests now check the behavior of $echo for very large
+ strings, because some echo commands would just core dump (e.g.,
+ Solaris' printf). If too large strings fail, smaller ones are
+ tested.
+ (ltecho): arrange that, if the --fallback-echo method is selected,
+ echo will be defined in the libtool script so as to re-run itself,
+ not ltconfig
+ * ltmain.in: add --fallback-echo
+ (qecho) ensure that, if --falback-echo is being used, qecho is
+ defined with the full pathname of the libtool script
+
+ * tests/sh.test (test X): ensure that the double-quote supposed to be
+ reported is really reported
+
+1998-11-07 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * mdemo/main.c: removed hardcoded library names; link against -lm

+
+1998-11-04 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+
+ * demo/configure.in: added AC_EXEEXT macro so that the tests can
+ work on cywin32/mingw32 hosts. This requires the current CVS
+ autoconf
+
+1998-11-04 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
+
+ * ltmain.in: New flag -export-symbols; new dlpreopen system
+ * demo/dlmain.c: removed dld_preloaded_symbol_count
+
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>

+ appears more than once in the list of library names.
+
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Add objext and libext variables. Check for object
+ suffix. Check for mingw32* as well as cygwin32*. Use objext when
+ testing compiler. Add support for Visual C++ on cygwin32 when not
+ using gcc. Add objext, libext, and fix_srcfile_path to generated
+ libtool script.
+ * ltmain.in: Use .${objext} rather than .o. Use fix_srcfile_path
+ if it is set. Check for .obj as well as for .o, and for .lib as
+ well as for .a. Use .${libext} rather than .a when creating old
+ libraries.
+ * libtoolize.in: Change initial /bin/sh to @SHELL@.
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Add AC_REQUIRE for
+ AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, so that autoconf doesn't get mixed up by the
+ AC_REQUIRE in AC_CHECK_TOOL.
+
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Look in the right directory for libtool.c in
+ archive_cmds for cygwin32.
+
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Fix cygwin32 support to avoid using a double
+ extension, to delete the def file, to set version_type to windows,

+
+ * libtool.m4 (sco): fix typo

+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: On AIX, don't treat GNU ld specially.
+
+1998-11-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_minus_L): Revert Ian's patch for
+ ltconfig.in. Although -L hardcoding is not used with GNU ld, it
+ does happen, so hardcode_minus_L must be set to yes.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (compiler_o_lo): check whether we can write directly
+ to a .lo
+
+ * ltmain.in (compiler_o_lo): if not, write to .o and rename it
+
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: For sunos4 using GNU ld, set hardcode_minus_L to
+ no.

+
+ * ltconfig.in (dgux): new supported platforms
+
+1998-11-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (need_locks): if neither `-c -o' nor hard links are

+ need_locks to warn
+ * ltmain.in (need_locks): when need_locks is set to warn, use the
+ lockfile to try to fail in case of incorrect concurrent builds

+
+1998-11-03 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in: correctly create libraries and programs with
+ directory components in their names
+
+1998-11-03 Eric Estievenart <eric@via.ecp.fr>
+
+ * ltmain.in (output_obj): typo
+
+1998-11-02 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: For sunos4, add ${libname}.so$versuffix to
+ library_names_spec.
+ * ltmain.in: For version_type of sunos, set versuffix even if
+ -version-info was not used.
+
+1998-11-02 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * ltmain.in (libobj): default value must not contain directory
+ components
+
+1998-11-02 Eric Estievenart <eric@via.ecp.fr>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (compiler): detect if the compiler supports
+ -c and -o flags, create a variable compiler_c_o. Also issue
+ a big warning if it is not supported
+
+ * ltmain.in (compile): enable the -o option as input for libtool.
+ The objects are not moved if the compiler supports -o with -c.
+ Sources and objects can contain relative directories.
+ (link): enable the linking of executables into relative directories
+
+1998-11-02 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * AUTHORS: added myself as a co-maintainer
+ * THANKS: and removed my name from here
+
+ * autogen: new script; run it to bootstrap libtool after checking
+ it out from CVS
+
+ * libtool.m4 (CFLAGS): check whether -belf is needed on SCO, as
+ suggested by Robert Lipe <robertl@dgii.com>
+
+1998-10-31 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@trick.fig.org>
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hc-libpath): Use parameters from the libtool
+ in the top build directory, since the one in the demo directory is
+ not guaranteed to exist.
+
+1998-10-27 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am (objdir): there are no longer quotes around
+ objdir in the libtool script

+
+1998-08-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@trick.fig.org>
+
+ * ltmain.in (install): When library_names_spec has redundancies,
+ avoid deleting the main library when installing symlinks. From
+ Jeff Dairiki.
+ (link): Get rid of backticks in a here doc comment.
+ This causes segfaults on Solaris 2. From Aleksandar Bakic.
+ (finish): Don't display messages
+
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): On HP-UX 9, make sure we don't try
+ to move a file to itself. From Jeff Dairiki.

+
+Thu May 28 18:59:08 1998 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Use $SHELL when invoking shell scripts.
+
+1998-05-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in (compile): Don't have `-static' turn off libtool
+ libraries, so that people can use it just to guarantee that `.o'
+ files exist. Suggested by David Mosberger-Tang.
+
+1998-05-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Possibly reexec the shell from within the
+ wrapper script.
+ Allow `-version-info' and `-release' to coexist again. If people
+ want to shoot themselves in the foot, I'd better let them do so,
+ so that people who are smart enough not to can squeeze out another
+ ounce of functionality. From Tim Janik.
+ (version_vars): Delete dead variable.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_minus_L): FreeBSD 3.0 doesn't hardcode, at

+
+ * ltconfig.in: Don't use .$versuffix or .$major. Instead, assume
+ the variable will include any required prefix.
+ * ltmain.in: If no -version-info option was used, produce empty
+ version strings rather than 0.0.0. When making library symlinks,
+ avoid making a symlink if the name would be the same.
+
+1998-04-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Support `unsupported' as a hardcode_action.
+ Reported by Lars Hecking.
+ (lib_linked): Do some sanity checking to make sure that we
+ actually do link libtool libraries into the program to prevent the
+ above problem from happening again.
+
+1998-04-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in: Maybe reexec under $SHELL, if $echo doesn't work.
+ Reported by Lars Hecking.
+
+1998-04-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am (maintainer-rekey): New rule to force us to change
+ Project-Version after we make a release. This keeps all version
+ numbers in sync, rather than branching just before the release.
+ (maintainer-release, maintainer-checkin): Use maintainer-rekey.
+
+ * ltmain.in (finish): Notice when a finish command fails, so that
+ we can add it to the list of recommendations.
+
+1998-04-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Append file descriptor 5 to
+ config.log, so that configure doesn't clobber the messages that
+ ltconfig put there. From David Taylor.
+
+1998-04-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): Try using `$CC -shared' when
+ configuring for GCC under irix5 and irix6. From Wolfram Gloger.
+ (ofile): Add `--output' flag to change the name of the generated
+ libtool. Suggested by Wolfram Gloger.
+
+1998-04-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in: Remove all hardcoded references to ltmain.in in
+ favour of $PACKAGE and $PROGRAM.
+ (install): Compute the installation name for programs, in case we
+ install a relinked file which has a different name. Reported by
+ Pieter Schoenmakers.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (echo): Try using the ksh(1) `print -r' builtin
+ command, before reverting to printf(1).

+
+ * ltmain.in: New `--config' flag to print out all configured
+ variables.
+
+ * libtool.m4: Pass ltconfig the undocumented --no-reexec flag,
+ since we call it explicitly using CONFIG_SHELL.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Restart the script under a different shell if
+ CONFIG_SHELL is not /bin/sh. This way, people can use Bash if
+ they don't have a working echo program.
+
+ * ltmain.in, ltconfig.in: Use $SHELL instead of /bin/sh when
+ generating executable scripts.
+
+ * libtoolize.in, ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Implement the `--debug'
+ flag to begin shell tracing.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): Don't use `gcc -shared', even if we
+ have GNU ld. Reported by Robert S. Maier.
+
+1998-04-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): Create more than just a null C file, so
+ that the SunPRO 4.2 cc doesn't complain. From Bob Friesenhahn.
+ (gnu_ld_acts_native): Delete this variable. There is just too
+ much version skew to try to pretend GNU ld is the same as the
+ system ld. Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.
+ (hardcode_action): Don't bother relinking or aborting on systems
+ that are too dynamic to have a consistent hardcode method.
+ Reported by Doug Winterburn.

+
+1998-03-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in: Rearrange some of the echos to make them more
+ consistent.
+
+1998-03-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in: Break up an echo command that causes Solaris printf
+ to dump core. Apparently the Solaris people hardcoded a 2110-byte
+ buffer into their printf(1). Feh. From John Judge.
+
+1998-03-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Change the test for the PIC compiler flag so that
+ we assume it doesn't work if there are any warning messages. This
+ fixes a bug using old GCC's on HP-UX. Reported by Akim Demaille.
+
+1998-03-10 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Remove bogus command to create
+ a file ltconfig in the build directory.
+
+1998-03-09 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>
+
+ * ltmain.in: Avoid unnecessary use of command substitution,
+ replacing foo=`eval \\$echo \"$mumble\"` by eval foo=\"$mumble\".
+
+ (link): Use ${1+"$@"} in wrapper scripts in order to pass
+ arguments safely to a program.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Use -fpic instead of -fPIC if $host_cpu matches
+ m68*.
+
+1998-03-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * Release 1.1.
+
+ * ltmain.in: <sigh> I like `here documents' a lot, but apparently
+ they are so badly handled by old and buggy /bin/sh's, that
+ replacing `cat <<EOF ... EOF' by `$echo "..."' improves libtool's
+ speed by a factor of 5. So, I've eliminated here docs from the
+ all-important ltmain.in. From Tom Lane.
+
+ * tests/tlibtool: Eliminate from distribution.
+
+ * tests/defs (libtool): Don't use tlibtool anymore, since we can now use
+ the generated libtool directly.
+
+1998-03-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Copy the contents of ltmain.sh into the generated
+ libtool. This should more than halve the execution times on old
+ or buggy /bin/sh systems, such as HP-UX 9 and SunOS 4.1.4. From
+ Tom Lane.
+
+1998-03-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): Add support for
+ the `default' package, so that people can control unnamed
+ packages.
+ (LD): Only add an ABI flag under IRIX 6.x, since IRIX 5.x doesn't
+ support them. From Alexandre Oliva.
+
+1998-03-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Port to UnixWare 2.x. From Christopher Olsen.
+
+1998-02-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in (compile): For consistency, honour the `-static' flag
+ during compilation.
+
+1998-02-23 Brendan Kehoe <brendan@cygnus.com>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): For
+ --enable-shared, heed the value of $PACKAGE from AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
+ if given as the argument for the library to be built shared.
+
+1998-02-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Fix up a typo confusion between
+ $ac_dir and $dir. Reported by Akim Demaille.
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Don't allow both `-version-info' and
+ `-release'. Reported by Danny Backx.
+
+1998-02-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am (noinst_SCRIPTS): Remove lineno from distribution.
+
+ * lineno: Remove from distribution, as it is no longer needed.
+
+ * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig.in, $(srcdir)/ltmain.sh):
+ Rewrite these rules not to use config.status or lineno. This
+ makes things simpler, and reduces dependencies, so that the
+ scripts are rebuilt and installed in srcdir only when necessary.
+ Reported by Stephan Kulow.
+
+ * tests/sh.test (scripts): Remove the lineno script, since it is no
+ longer distributed.
+
+ * tests/assign.test, if.test, test-e.test: Even though 15 tests looks
+ impressive, these are now redundant. Remove them from the
+ distribution.
+
+ * tests/sh.test: Do what assign.test, if.test, and test-e.test used to
+ do.
+
+1998-02-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * libtool.m4, ltmain.in, ltconfig.in: Correctly identify absolute
+ directory names on MS-DOS. Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in, libtool.m4: Change a bunch of `sed N!d'
+ commands to `sed Nq', for efficiency.
+
+ * ltmain.in: Only egrep the first few lines of files in order to
+ determine if they were libtool-generated. This prevents egrep(1)
+ from taking forever to look at a 10MB binary on Solaris. From
+ Stephan Kulow.
+
+ * tests/defs: Correctly identify absolute directory names on MS-DOS.
+ Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.
+
+1998-02-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (no_undefined_flag): Add a flag to declare under
+ Solaris that the library should not have any undefined
+ references. Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.
+
+ * ltmain.in (mkdir): Fix one more mkdir race. From H.J. Lu.
+
+1998-02-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (striplib, old_striplib): Ditto.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (profile_flag_pattern): Get rid of dead code.
+
+1998-02-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): New macros to
+ modify the `--enable-shared' and `--enable-static' defaults in the
+ configure script. This works a lot better than the old
+ `enable_shared' and `enable_static' variables did. Reported by
+ Bob Friesenhahn.
+
+ * tests/suffix.test (extensions): Added GNAT (GNU Ada Translator)
+ suffices, `.ada', `.ads', `.adb'. From Samuel Tardieu.
+
+1998-02-07 Samuel Tardieu <sam@inf.enst.fr>
+
+ * ltmain.in: Recognize .ada, .ads and .adb as known suffixes (they
+ are used by GNAT, the GNU Ada compiler).
+
+1998-02-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Turn on IRIX shared libraries again!
+
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Use file(1) to discover which ABI we're using
+ on IRIX, and propagate the correct linker flag. From Jim Wilson.
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (Xsed): `arg=-n; echo "$arg" | sed ...'
+ gives problems, because the `-n' is interpreted as an option to
+ echo(1). So, use `echo "X$arg" | sed -e 's/^X//' ...' everywhere,
+ via the $Xsed convenience variable. Suggested by H.J. Lu.
+
+1998-02-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Turn off IRIX shared library support until 32-bit
+ and 64-bit ABI differences can be resolved.
+
+1998-01-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Reverse yesterday's change because `-old_ld'
+ isn't accepted by GCC.
+
+1998-01-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (soname_spec): Add in user-specified release numbers
+ for every host system that supports an soname that differs from
+ the linkname.
+
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Add `-old_ld' to the list of flags that need to
+ be passed through on SGI. Reported by Chris Lee.
+
+ * ltmain.in (release): Prepend a hyphen to the release number, and
+ fix a typo because `-version-info' takes only 3 args. From
+ H.J. Lu.
+
+1998-01-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (library_names_spec): On Linux, use the
+ user-specified release.
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Allow the user to specify a release number for
+ the library using the `-release' flag. Suggested by H.J. Lu and
+ Ian Lance Taylor.
+
+1998-01-23 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Export some important
+ environment variables. Reported by Ian Haggard.
+
+1998-01-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (old_postuninstall_cmds): Reorder so that chmod
+ happens after ranlib. From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.
+
+ * ltmain.in (mode): Added `gcc*' and `*-gcc*' to the patterns that
+ recognize compilers. From Pieter Schoenmakers.
+ (link): Recognize `.a' files again. Suggested by Pieter
+ Schoenmakers.
+
+1998-01-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in (compile): Recognize `.asm' extension, for use with
+ the nasm assembler. From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.
+
+ * tests/suffix.test (extensions): Recognize `.asm'. From Markus
+ F.X.J. Oberhumer.
+
+1998-01-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (runpath_var): Use instead of
+ `hardcode_runpath_var'.
+
+1998-01-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in (finish): Add a better --finish message. Suggested by
+ Kenneth Albanowski.
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Fix a few typos.
+
+1998-01-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Quote the definition of $echo in the wrapper
+ script.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag_spec): Use `--export-dynamic'
+ instead of `-export-dynamic', which is not accepted by all GNU
+ ld's. From Eiichi Takamori.
+
+ * ltmain.in (install): Don't print silly `library stripping'
+ warnings. Reported by François Pinard.
+
+1997-12-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltmain.in: Don't forget to quote the CDPATH substitution. From
+ Tor Lillqvist.
+
+1997-12-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (CDPATH): Unset this environment variable
+ so that HP-UX shells, at least, don't print out the directory name
+ after a `cd' command. From Tor Lillqvist.
+
+1997-12-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hardcode): Change a bunch of references to
+ `$(LIBS)' to `-lm', since we no longer put -lm in LIBS.
+
+ * demo/configure.in: Delete the test for libm, since it is
+ standard on every system.
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am (libhello_la_LDFLAGS): Change to include -lm,
+ in accordance with new inter-library dependency code.
+
+ * ltmain.in (dependency_libs): Added to help people link programs
+ without having to explicitly specify inter-library dependencies.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Oops... I forgot to apply the AIX 3
+ restriction to the generated libtool script. Reported by Stefan
+ Westerfeld.
+
+1997-12-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (thisdir): Quote $echo in the generated libtool
+ script for HP-UX. From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Recognize the `.s' suffix. From Markus
+ F.X.J. Oberhumer.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (link_static_flag): Don't quote ${wl} on HP-UX
+ because link_static_flag is never evaled. From Eric Backus.
+
+ * tests/suffix.test (extensions): Recognize `.s'. From Markus
+ F.X.J. Oberhumer.
+
+1997-12-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am (helldl_DEPENDENCIES): Add `libhello.la' to our
+ dependencies so that parallel builds work correctly. From Jim
+ Meyering.
+
+ * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig, $(srcdir)/ltmain.sh): Rewrite
+ these rules so that they are parallelizable. Reported by Jim
+ Meyering.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (ltecho): We need special handling to quote the
+ `echo' variable itself. From Alexandre Oliva.
+
+1997-11-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Enable this workaround for a broken
+ collect2 only on AIX 3. This avoids problems on other AIX
+ versions. Reported by Stefan Westerfeld.
+
+ * ltmain.in, ltconfig.in (finish_eval): Variable like finish_cmds,
+ except it is a single command which is evaled, and not shown.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Port to AmigaOS. From Joop van de Wege.
+
+ * ltmain.in (echo): Delete preamble to check for a working echo,
+ since we just use the one included in the generated libtool.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (echo): Include this definition in the generated
+ libtool script.
+
+1997-11-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltconfig.in, libtool.m4 (NM): Add /usr/ccs/bin to the PATH
+ before checking. From Kaveh R. Ghazi.
+ (NM): Delete an extraneous egrep from ltconfig.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (finish_cmds): Change back to using `ldconfig -n'.
+ This makes Linux behave like other systems, which is more in line
+ with what libtool needs.
+
+1997-11-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltmain.in: Change a whole bunch of `progname' variables to
+ `modename'. This is for clarity, and to fix a tiny typo in finish
+ mode.
+
+ * libtool.spec (Name, Version): Ditto.
+
+ * configure.in (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Use PRCS to automatically generate
+ the proper package name and version number.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (gnu_ld_acts_native): Treat GNU ld like the native
+ linker on SunOS 4.x. Suggested by Alexandre Oliva.
+ (deplibs): Change the defaults all over, since most systems cannot
+ handle inter-library dependencies.
+
+ * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Only look at the first line of the
+ output from NM when determining whether it supports a command line
+ option. This prevents false positives on OSes which ignore
+ invalid flags, like HP-UX, which prints `nm: unknown option "B"
+ ignored'. Reported by Kaveh R. Ghazi.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (finish_cmds): On Linux, update ld.so.cache by
+ removing the `-n' flag from ldconfig. Suggested by Kenneth
+ Albanowski.
+
+ * Makefile.am (maintainer-checkin, maintainer-release): New
+ commands to reap the full benefit of using PRCS to maintain
+ libtool version numbers.
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (global_symbol_pipe): Explicitly cast all
+ addresses to __ptr_t. This fixes a bug due to a strict IRIX
+ compiler. Suggested by Kaveh R. Ghazi.
+
+1997-11-23 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltmain.in (echo): For aesthetics, avoid using `$echo' when
+ `echo' will do *exactly* the same thing. This prevents ugly
+ `printf %s\n timestamp > some.lo' commands from appearing in the
+ libtool output.
+ (link): Delete the `-allow-undefined' flag because it is now the
+ default. Make `-no-undefined' in order for people to declare that
+ a library is entirely self-contained. This prevents maintainers
+ from accidentally creating shared libraries that won't work on
+ AIX. Reported by Stefan Westerfeld and Danny Backx.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (echo): Use an echo variable, just as in ltmain.in,
+ because we need it for quoting substitutions. For most of the
+ script, though, use the default echo, just like Autoconf does.
+ Without this patch, character \001 ends up in global_symbol_pipe.
+ Reported by Lars Hecking and Jürgen Fluk.
+
+ * ltmain.in (echo): Set default to `echo=echo'. Ooops. That's
+ what you get for testing obscure code paths and forgetting to
+ revert to the original version. Reported by Danny Backx.
+
+1997-11-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): Set to `-R' for FreeBSD
+ 2.2. From Sean Kelly.
+ (postuninstall_cmds, old_postuninstall_cmds): Commands to run
+ after uninstall mode deletes the libraries. Suggested by Joop van
+ de Wege.
+ (export_dynamic_flag_spec): On HP-UX, add the `${wl}-E'
+ export_dynamic_flag_spec. Reported by Matthias Hoelzer.
+
+1997-11-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (sed_quote_subst): Oops. We forgot to
+ quote backticks. Reported by Joop van de Wege.
+
+ * tests/quote.test: Add backticks to the backslashify test.
+
+1997-11-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (symcode): On IRIX, don't extract undefined
+ symbols. When a function is inlined by G++, references to it are
+ still marked as undefined in the object file. This means that our
+ symbol file causes undefined references, because there are
+ actually no matching global symbols. Reported by Paul Kendall.
+
+1997-11-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Don't forget to redirect the COLLECT_NAMES libtool
+ script fragment to the generated libtool, rather than to stdout.
+
+1997-11-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Add a more sophisticated test to determine the
+ ABI flag on IRIX 6. Suggested by Lars Hecking and Ian Lance
+ Taylor.
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Only export this
+ variable if we are running under AIX. Otherwise, we tickle a g++
+ bug under IRIX. From Paul Kendall.
+
+ * Change bug reporting address to <bug-libtool@gnu.org>.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): OSF/1 3.x also requires a
+ wildcard argument to `-expect_unresolved'. From Stephan Kulow.
+
+1997-11-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Use libname_spec.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): Somehow, the HP-UX pic_flag (`+Z') was
+ dropped between libtool-1.0 and now. Add it back in. Reported by
+ Akim Demaille.
+ Integrated more patches for OS/2. From Jeff Freedman.
+ (libname_spec): New variable for OSes that don't require their
+ libraries to look like `libNAME.a'.
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Only use global_symbol_pipe if it has been
+ defined. From Stephan Kulow.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): Protect C fragment under C++
+ compilers. From Stephan Kulow.
+
+ * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/acinclude.m4,
+ $(srcdir)/demo/acinclude.m4): Change rules to use LN_S so that
+ they can be run on any system.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): For NetBSD, don't include deplibs.
+ From Dieter Baron.
+
+ * ltmain.in (mkdir): Check that the directory doesn't exist before
+ we exit with error, so that we don't get races during parallel
+ builds. From H.J. Lu.
+ (fbsd_hideous_sh_bug): Apparently, some FreeBSD /bin/sh's have a
+ bug that will empty base_compile unless we do this dummy
+ assignment. From Marc van Kempen.
+
+1997-10-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (libtool_shared, libtool_static): Fixed logic error
+ to reenable override of libtool's defaults by setting
+ enable_shared or enable_static in configure.in. Reported by Tom
+ Tromey and Stephan Kulow.
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Add explicit support for compiler options that
+ begin with `+'. Reported by Aubert Pierre.
+
+1997-10-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltmain.in: Silly me. Change a bunch of occurances of "* $dir *"
+ into *" $dir "*.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): PIC is the default for AIX. From Mark
+ Kettenis. It is also the default for OSF/1.
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am (objdir): Quote double-quotes. From Mark
+ Kettenis.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): This variable is not
+ double-evaled, so it should not be double quoted. From Mark
+ Kettenis.
+
+1997-10-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (LD): Same as below.
+
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Set LD if we discover an absolute path to GNU
+ ld. This prevents breakage when `$CC -print-prog-name=ld' returns
+ an absolute directory name. Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Port to OS/2 using EMX. From Jeff Freedman.
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Use old_archive_from_new_cmds.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (old_archive_from_new_cmds): New variable to
+ support DLL libraries.
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Only `eval' export_dynamic_flag_spec if it is
+ not empty. Reported by Stephan Kulow.
+
+1997-10-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (objdir): Use the .libs directory on all systems for
+ which that name is valid, and _libs on the others (like MS-DOS).
+ Suggested by Juergen Erhard.
+
+1997-10-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Added a bit more inter-language support to the
+ symbol file generation process.
+ Instead of complaining about unrecognized argument suffices, pass
+ them to the linker. This prevents libtool from barfing on
+ mandatory arguments to linker flags. Reported by Michael
+ Tiemann.
+
+1997-10-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Change the wrapper script to follow symlinks
+ in order to find thisdir. This should put the final nail in the
+ coffin for problems with wrapper scripts. From Ian Lance Taylor.
+
+1997-10-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.in: Change a few `$echo' commands into `$show' to make
+ --silent mode behave as advertised.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): On OSF/1 4.x, use
+ `-expect_unresolved \*'. From Christian Mondrup.
+
+ * ltmain.in (install): Change install mode to allow a specified
+ /bin/sh argument at the beginning of the install_prog. Also,
+ specify the shell to run when invoking libtool recursively for
+ finish mode. From Chris Provenzano.
+
+ * libtool.m4 (LIBTOOL): Change definition to include $(SHELL).
+ From Chris Provenzano.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Port to UTS 4.x. From Alistair Crooks.
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hc-libflag): Add rules to make this binary for
+ hardcode.test.
+
+ * tests/hardcode.test (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): Check the hardcoding
+ properties of the flag_spec, too.
+
+1997-09-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (LD): As with libtool.m4, don't override LD.
+ Do a whole bunch of ac_t quoting.
+
+1997-09-24 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD): Don't override LD in the environment.
+
+1997-09-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Arguments to the for loop must be
+ whitespace separated. This fixes a bug under FreeBSD's /bin/sh.
+ From George Scott.
+
+ * tests/defs, tests/Makefile.am (clean-local): Change =inst to
+ _inst to fix portability on MS-DOS. From Robert Hoehne.
+
+1997-09-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.in (deplibs): When building shared libraries, always add
+ -lc to deplibs. Reported by Andreas Jellinghaus.
+
+1997-09-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (COLLECT_NAMES): If the COLLECT_NAMES
+ environment variable has not been set, set it to empty. This
+ apparently fixes the AIX bug with GCC's collect2. Reported by
+ Mark Kettenis.
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am, ltmain.in, tests/hardcode.test (objdir):
+ Changed objdir variable .libs to _libs. This is another MS-DOS
+ portability fix. Suggested by Robert Hoehne.
+
+ * tests/hardcode.test (objdir): New variable to simplify change from
+ .libs to _libs (MS-DOS portability fix).
+
+1997-09-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (hardcode_minusL): Fix typo by renaming
+ hardcode_minusL to hardcode_minus_L. Also add FreeBSD
+ hardcode_libdir_flag_spec. From Paul Traina.
+
+ * ltmain.in (link): Honour multiple `-rpath' flags when linking
+ programs. Suggested by Bengt Martensson.
+ Quote appearances of $echo in the wrapper script. From Alexandre
+ Oliva.
+
+ * Makefile.am, configure.in, tests/tlibtool: Use ltmain.in instead
+ of ltmain.sh.in.
+
+ * ltmain.in: Rename ltmain.sh.in to ltmain.in. This fixes a
+ portability problem (on MS-DOS, of all places!). From Robert
+ Hoehne.
+
+1997-09-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Do not transform libtool objects to regular
+ objects if we did not build old libs. Reported by Tomas Hiller.
+
+1997-09-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hell_debug_LDFLAGS): Change hell.static to
+ hell.debug in order to reflect the new static linking semantics.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add new `-all-static' flag to prevent all
+ dynamic linking. The old `-static' flag just prevents dynamic
+ linking against libtool libraries. Suggested by Bengt
+ Martensson.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (with_gnu_ld): Add a test to make sure that we are
+ actually using GNU ld. This fixes an inconsistency when running
+ ltconfig without using libtool.m4. Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
+ (global_symbol_pipe): Delete symbols that are not valid C
+ identifiers. Reported by Johan Danielsson and Bengt Martensson.
+
+ * tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test: Change references from
+ hell.static to hell.debug.
+
+ * tests/quote.test (echo): Add the same Digital Unix echo test fixes as
+ the ones to ltmain.sh.in from Todd Kover.
+
+ * tests/if.test, tests/test-e.test (scripts): Add ../lineno to
+ the scripts we check.
+ * tests/if.test: Check for accidental use of test X$something rather
+ than test "X$something".
+
+1997-09-04 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (echo): Quote all the uses of `echo' in all eval
+ statements. Reported by Bengt Martensson and Alexandre Oliva.
+ (echo): Need to surround test args with double quotes, or the echo
+ test fails on Digital Unix 4.0. From Todd Kover.
+
+1997-08-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (echo): Change test to one that uses printf.
+ This works on AIX, which has the same problems that Solaris does,
+ but no working echo program.
+
+ * tests/quote.test (echo): Change test to version that uses printf.
+ Be less strict about return results.
+
+1997-08-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Make sure that compile_command and
+ finalize_command are always evaled. Quote any unknown linker
+ flags we need to pass through.
+ (compile): Use quoting for flags we pass.
+ (echo): I hate Sun! The /usr/bin/echo on Solaris handles
+ backslash sequences, which makes it impossible to do backslash
+ quoting using echo and sed. So, we search for an echo that obeys
+ the `echo '\t'` = '\t' equality. Then we use `$echo' everywhere
+ in ltmain.sh.
+ Put tabs back into the ${IFS= } sequences. Emacs untabify is
+ libtool bane.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Quote all variable values that may contain
+ metacharacters creating the libtool script. This provides
+ complete protection, so that even single-quotes may appear inside
+ a libtool variable value.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Quote finalize_command before putting it in
+ the wrapper script.
+
+ * tests/quote.test (echo): Add the test for a non-backslash-mangling
+ echo.
+
+1997-08-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (sed_quote_subst): Change the quoting procedure
+ again. I think that the new one is robust for *all* characters,
+ including whitespace and metacharacters.
+
+ * tests/quote.test: New torture test for libtool metacharacter quoting.
+
+1997-08-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Change quoting procedure because some shells
+ cannot handle `]' in scan sets. From Ian Dall.
+
+1997-08-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (execute): Added -dlopen flag handling. Suggested
+ by Alexandre Oliva.
+
+1997-08-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Change executable wrapper to fix up value
+ of thisdir, as well as progdir, if the $0 path doesn't work. This
+ guarantees that shlibpath_var is set correctly. Add support for
+ execute mode.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (execute): New mode to automatically set
+ shlibpath_var, which allows easy debugging of uninstalled
+ executables and libraries. Suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.
+
+1997-08-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Use lineno.
+
+ * configure.in: Add AM_PROG_AWK for lineno.
+
+ * lineno: New program to automatically put line numbers in
+ ltconfig.
+
+ * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (AM_PROG_LD): Yet Another Rewrite, which
+ incorporates the results of `gcc -print-program-name=ld'.
+ Suggested by Alexandre Oliva.
+
+1997-08-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Accept `--quiet' and `--silent' flags to turn off
+ command echoing. From Juergen A. Erhard.
+
+ (compile): Recognize the Objective C `.m' extension. From Juergen
+ A. Erhard.
+
+ (compile): Suppress error output from the second compilation (if
+ any) so that we don't get those frustrating duplicate error
+ messages.
+
+ * tests/suffix.test (extensions): Added Objective C extension, `.m'.
+
+1997-08-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Added messages to config.log to describe what sort
+ of test we are running.
+ (pic_flag): Added a sanity check for pic_flag. This should fix
+ bugs reported using the cc bundled with HP-UX 10. Suggested by
+ Bruno Haible and Akim Demaille.
+
+1997-08-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add -dlopen and -dlpreopen support for
+ libtool objects. This means that dlopened modules no longer need
+ to be shared libraries.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): GCC on IRIX 6 always builds PIC.
+ Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.
+
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Always add `-n32' to the linker if we are using
+ GCC on IRIX 6. Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.
+
+1997-07-30 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Explicitly check enable_shared and
+ enable_static rather than just enableval. This allows
+ configure.in scripts to set their own defaults. Suggested by
+ Tommy Reilly.
+
+1997-07-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Add NLS environment variable handling copied from
+ ltconfig.in. Reported by Akim Demaille.
+ (link): If allow_undefined_flag is not supported, then turn on old
+ libraries. Reported by Akim Demaille.
+
+ * demo/dlmain.c (main): Use dld_preloaded_symbol_count to display
+ a message about the sortedness of the symbol table.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (nlist): Use an nlist convenience variable, so that
+ code can be shared directly with ltmain.sh.in.
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (dld_preloaded_symbol_count): Count up
+ the number of symbols in the dld_preloaded_symbols. Set to `-1'
+ if the list wasn't both sorted and counted. This allows
+ applications to do a quick binary search, if they are so inclined.
+
+1997-07-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Remove code for `-version-file', since it
+ has been long-deprecated.
+
+ Disable static linking if hardcode_direct is unsupported and there
+ is no working link_static_flag. This provides correct behaviour
+ for all cases on AIX 3, regardless of whether collect2 is broken
+ or not. Reported by Mark Kettenis.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Fix typo in test polarity. From Mark Kettenis.
+
+1997-07-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_direct): Set to `unsupported' if aix3 uses
+ a broken collect2. Adapted out of test results from Mark
+ Kettenis.
+ (link_static_flag): Make sure the link_static_flag actually works
+ with a trivial binary.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag_spec): Renamed
+ from export_dynamic_flag because we eval it in ltmain.sh.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link_static): Don't eval link_static_flag.
+
+ * demo/dlmain.c (main): Change function prototype to be KNR
+ compatible. From Kaveh R. Ghazi.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Use no_builtin_flag. This works around
+ conflicting definitions of builtin functions with at least GCC.
+ Reported by Kazuhiro Sasayama.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (no_builtin_flag): New flag to turn off builtin
+ functions when compiling an object file.
+ (pipe_works): Use it.
+
+ * tests/demo-exec.test (status): Use status variables so that we try to
+ execute all the programs.
+
+1997-07-23 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): According to the libg++ 2.7.2 configure
+ script, DEC alpha CPUs are PIC-only, as well. Reported by Kevin
+ Jacobs.
+
+1997-07-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in: Replace all occurances of "sed 'X;
+ Y'" with "sed -e 'X' -e 'Y'".
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Finish full integration for `-dlopen' and
+ `-dlpreopen'.
+
+ Fix two silly typos where I used a compile_command in place of a
+ finalize_command, and vice versa.
+
+ Change the wrapper script to check a hardcoded path only if the
+ argv[0] method fails. This is a compromise for the previous two
+ patches, and should solve the majority of problems with wrapper
+ scripts. From Kenneth Albanowski.
+
+ (link): Change a reference to hardcode_libdir_colon_separated to
+ use the new hardcode_libdir_separator variable.
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am (helldl_LDFLAGS): Add `-export-dynamic' and
+ `-dlpreopen' for building helldl.
+
+ * demo/dlmain.c (main): Succeed, even if none of the libhello
+ symbols have been preloaded.
+
+1997-07-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): Add `U' to the accepted global
+ symbol types. This means that we will get duplicate symbols, but
+ we'll also be sure to get all global symbols used by the program.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (pipe_works), ltmain.sh.in (link): Sort and make
+ symbol output unique.
+
+1997-07-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (pipe_works): Check to make sure our guessed
+ global_symbol_pipe actually works.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Revert change from Kenneth Albanowski. The
+ wrapper scripts are more reliable when they just use the argv[0]
+ value. Generally, when the argv[0] method doesn't work, the user
+ is trying to do something weird with an uninstalled binary, and
+ should try a different approach.
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (CC): Always use `$CC' instead of
+ `$cc'. This fixes a FreeBSD bug. Reported by Chuck Robey, and
+ others.
+
+1997-07-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): In wrapper scripts, hardcode the current
+ directory to prevent phony argv[0] values from screwing up our
+ program. From Kenneth Albanowski.
+
+1997-07-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Add demo/dlmain.c to the
+ distribution.
+
+1997-07-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am: Add helldl, made from dlmain.c, to demostrate
+ `-dlopen' usage.
+
+ * demo/dlmain.c: New file to demonstrate preloaded modules.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add `-dlopen' flag to preload dynamic
+ modules, even on static platforms. Use `$NM' and
+ `$global_symbol_cmd' to extract symbols from required files.
+ (dlname): Delete dlname mode entirely. It is rendered obsolete
+ because the `.la' file format is now a public interface.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (NM): New variable for BSD-compatible nm program.
+ (global_symbol_cmd): Pipeline to extract global symbols from the
+ nm output.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: The .la file header should depend on `ltmain.sh',
+ not `$PROGRAM'.
+ (link): Make sure $export_dynamic_flag is eval'ed before it is
+ used.
+
+ * tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test: Check the new
+ helldl program, too.
+
+1997-07-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * libtool.spec: New Red Hat Package Manager specification file in
+ order to help people prepare distributions of libtool for Linux.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Eliminate two accidental uses of the NONE magic
+ value. These were breaking libtool's behaviour when no mode is
+ specified.
+
+ * tests/nomode.test: New test to make sure there is correct behaviour
+ when we don't specify a mode.
+
+1997-07-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Release 1.0.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: On SunOS, append /usr/etc to the PATH before
+ running ldconfig; on *BSD, append /sbin. This was done in line
+ with the Linux change suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hardcode_tests): Aesthetic change to
+ alphabetize order of compiling the hardcode tests.
+
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Delete README-automake.
+
+ * README-automake: Remove from distribution.
+
+1997-07-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): In the executable wrapper, strip trailing
+ colons from the shlibpath_var because some ld.so's, notably
+ OpenBSD 2.0's (!), don't parse colon-terminated values correctly.
+ From Tim Pierce.
+
+1997-07-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in: Eliminate uses of the NONE magic
+ variable value. Use an empty variable instead.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (with_gcc, with_gnu_ld): Do the tests for the C
+ compiler and linker if the variables are unset, or if they are not
+ GNU C and ld.
+ (RANLIB): Eliminate redundant `if' statement.
+
+ * configure.in: Use AM_PROG_LD.
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD_GNU): New macro to determine if LD is GNU
+ ld.
+ (AM_PROG_LD): Rename AM_PATH_PROG_LD to AM_PROG_LD. Parameterize
+ so that the user can specify `--with-gnu-ld' or `--without-gnu-ld'
+ to indicate his preference.
+ (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Use it.
+
+1997-06-30 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Append /sbin to the path before running ldconfig on
+ Linux. This helps superusers who haven't set their PATH
+ correctly. Suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.
+
+ * tests/if.test: New test to make sure that we haven't forgotten to
+ follow an `if' statement with a `test' command. This should avoid
+ the majority of hard-to-track bugs.
+
+1997-06-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Change all the `eval "$run ..."' sequences to
+ `$run "eval ..."'.
+
+ Change all `$ln_s ...' sequences to use `(cd /dir && $LN_S ...)'.
+ This is the sequence recommended by the Autoconf manual, and
+ should avoid any problems on older machines. Eliminate all uses
+ of `cp -p'. Reported by Akim Demaille.
+
+ (install): Use `test $# -gt 0' instead of `test -n "$1"'.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (LN_S): Add test to see if `ln -s' works.
+
+ * libtool.m4: Increment serial number, and require AC_PROG_LN_S.
+
+1997-06-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add missing `test' statement. Reported by
+ Akim Demaille.
+
+1997-06-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Consistently use ac_cv_path_ld instead of
+ am_cv_path_ld. From Tim Pierce.
+
+1997-06-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Redo two robustness fixes. Alexandre had the
+ correct approach, but I botched them.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (dynamic_linker): Disable shared libraries on
+ MkLinux unless GNU libc is in use. Reported by Akim Demaille.
+
+1997-06-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (install): Add a missing `test' command. Reported
+ by Joel Weber.
+ Miscellaneous fixes to improve robustness. From Alexandre Oliva.
+
+ * tests/demo-conf.test (CONFIG_SITE): Set to /dev/null, so that the
+ config.site file doesn't mess up our prefix. Reported by Joel
+ Weber.
+
+ * tests/demo-inst.test: Always run both hell.static and hell.
+
+ * tests/demo-conf.test: Always remove the local config.cache, but run
+ `make distclean' only if the Makefile exists. Otherwise, the demo
+ directory is not cleaned up if a user uses their own config.cache.
+ Reported by Joel Weber.
+
+1997-06-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Create invalid libtool objects when partial
+ linking if we don't have PIC. From Jeff Dairiki.
+ (install): Fix bug if libtool object is installed to a file name
+ without directory components. From Jeff Dairiki.
+
+1997-06-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile.am (demo/configure): Fix up rules to run autoconf.
+ (aclocal.m4): Now we depend on our own libtool.m4.
+
+ * configure.in (AM_PATH_PROG_LD): Use it.
+
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PATH_PROG_LD): New macro to find the linker used
+ by the C compiler.
+ (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Use it.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (install, uninstall): Support installing and
+ uninstalling `.lo' files. From Jeff Dairiki.
+
+1997-06-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): Only move if $(srcdir) is not
+ the current directory. Don't regenerate every time the package is
+ reconfigured. Reported by Tom Tromey.
+ (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Added ltconfig, ltmain.sh, so that
+ $(srcdir) is not messed with during a regular clean.
+
+1997-06-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): Be sure to move these files
+ into $(srcdir) once they are created.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Disable building static libraries.
+ People should use their favourite AR and RANLIB commands.
+ Disable building old-style objects if `--disable-static' is
+ given. Suggested by Tom Lees and Stephan Kulow.
+
+1997-06-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (host_cpu, host_vendor, host_os): Patch up
+ definitions, to allow for the fact that the host_os may contain
+ hyphens (as in linux-gnu). From Scott Goehring.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Move the `dlname' setting closer to the top
+ of the file. Suggested by David Mosberger-Tang.
+ Symlink the libtool archive into the `.libs' directory so that it
+ can be found by programs that want to find a library's dlname by
+ searching LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Reported by David Mosberger-Tang.
+
+1997-06-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Tell people to report bugs to the new libtool mailing list,
+ <bug-libtool@gnu.ai.mit.edu>.
+
+1997-06-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): New variable that implements
+ `-allow-undefined'.
+ (archive_cmds): Enable C++ constructors for FreeBSD 2.2. From
+ David Nugent.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Accept new `-allow-undefined' flag when
+ building libtool libraries. This tells libtool to allow
+ unresolved symbols to exist in shared libraries. Basically, this
+ turns off shared libraries on AIX. Suggested by Ian Lance Taylor.
+
+1997-05-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): On at least IRIX, many different flags need to
+ be propagated to the linker if they are part of the compiler
+ command line. Reported by Anthony Green.
+
+1997-05-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to FreeBSD 3. From David Nugent.
+
+1997-04-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Remove all traces of `-whole-archive',
+ `-no-whole-archive', and libtool convenience libraries. They were
+ more trouble than they're worth. If these are ever reimplemented,
+ they need more careful attention to make portable.
+
+ * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in: Added a `--disable-static' flag to turn
+ off static library creation. From Tom Lees (who finally convinced
+ me that it was the Right Thing to do).
+
+1997-04-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_runpath_var, runpath_var): Use them, if
+ the linker has no -rpath flag.
+ Quote the values we use to set runpath_var and shlibpath_var.
+ (link): Use libobjlibs for libtool convenience libraries.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_runpath_var, runpath_var): Add new
+ variables to describe linkers that honour `LD_RUN_PATH'.
+ (host_cpu, host_os): Use these more specific variables, rather
+ than the full canonical host system name.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (dlname): Distinguish between missing
+ `-export-dynamic' and when the library is only statically linked.
+
+1997-04-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to OpenBSD by making it an alias for
+ NetBSD. From Tim Pierce.
+
+1997-04-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Temporary measures to check for a broken collect2
+ program. Right now, we just see if we're using GCC on AIX 3.
+
+ * tests/hardcode.test: AIX also has arbitrary limits on the line length
+ of input to fgrep(1), so we need to translate NUL characters to
+ newlines in order to properly detect embedded `.libs'. From Bruno
+ Haible.
+ Also redirect stderr to /dev/null, so that AIX users don't get
+ worried by `fgrep: Maximum line length of 2048 exceeded.'.
+
+1997-04-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (mode): Use `egrep -e' when inferring the operation
+ mode.
+
+1997-04-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (linker): Some GNU ld's don't accept `--version',
+ but do accept `-v'. From Jukka Honkela.
+ (ld_shlibs): AIX lossage may be settling down. AIX 3.2.5 ld does
+ *not* hardcode direct libraries, but AIX 4.1.[45] ld does.
+
+1997-04-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_action): Fix silly logic error. From
+ Bruno Haible.
+
+1997-04-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (install): Relink if hardcode_action is `relink',
+ rather than using complex conditionals based on the other
+ hardcode variables.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_action): Set to `relink', not `immediate',
+ if we can only hardcode existing directories. Rearrange
+ conditionals to make the intent clearer, otherwise this can be one
+ hellish piece of code for the already-dizzy libtool maintainer.
+
+1997-04-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * replfunc.m4: Delete from the distribution. Documentation now
+ describes how to set LTALLOCA and LTLIBOBJS in your own
+ configure.in.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Make sure a libtool library only counts as
+ a shared library if its library_names are non-null.
+ Use timestamps for .lo's when PIC is turned off, rather than
+ symlinking to the real object. This helps invalid mixtures of PIC
+ and non-PIC to fail.
+
+1997-04-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute libtool.prj.
+
+ * Shameless plug: Changed source code management system from CVS
+ to PRCS.
+
+ * libtool.scm: Initial Guile implementation of libtool.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: An unexpected inconsistency in my whole approach
+ to shared libraries has proven that libtool needs to be completely
+ rewritten if I'm going to give full shared library support for
+ platforms that don't use the GNU C library version 2 (which to my
+ knowledge currently only works on GNU Hurd and Linux/GNU systems).
+ Porting the GNU C library should not be difficult, though.
+
+ Platforms that don't have the dlopen(3) family of functions will
+ need to install GNU DLD version 4 in order to build any kind of
+ libraries at all. Unfortunately, DLD 4 won't be released for a
+ while, because I maintain it, and I'm too busy working on libtool.
+
+ I'll keep the old ltconfig/ltmain.sh implementation around for as
+ long as I can, and continue applying bug fixes, so that I'll have
+ a reasonable starting point for this new libtool implementation.
+
+ It looks like this implementation will be even more complex than
+ the original (pre-0.7) libtool. Initial estimates show that it
+ may be up to 3 times slower, and 5 times larger than libtool-0.9.
+ I'll probably have to rewrite it in Guile to get reasonable
+ performance, which will severely limit its portability for a
+ while.
+
+ That will also introduce a bootstrapping issue, since the next
+ release of Guile will use libtool to build shared libraries. So,
+ if users want to have shared Guile libraries, they will have to
+ configure Guile with `--disable-shared', compile it, install it,
+ then reconfigure Guile with `--enable-shared' and repeat.
+
+ I was hoping to get libtool 1.0 out the door by early April, but
+ now it looks like it will take at least another year before it'll
+ be usable by the public at large. April fools. libtool.scm
+ doesn't exist yet, either.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (verify_host): Remove redundant `Transform *-*-linux*
+ to *-*-linux-gnu*'. From Bruno Haible.
+
+ * tests/hardcode.test: AIX 3 doesn't have strings(1) so we need to do a
+ funny tr and pipe the output to fgrep. From Bruno Haible.
+
+1997-03-31 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Makefile.am: Use the new AUTOMAKE and ACLOCAL variables.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Only fail if a convenience library doesn't
+ exist, and the user specified -whole-archive.
+ Fix shell quoting that was breaking @OUTPUT@ substitution.
+
+1997-03-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Use the hardcode_libdir_separator.
+ Convenience libraries are libtool objects if we're not building
+ libtool libs.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_separator): Added in case the
+ linker only honours the last of the -rpath flags (but it can
+ contain multiple colon-separated directories), such as on OSF/1.
+ Reported by Carl D. Roth.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Set the dlname if -export-dynamic is given.
+ (install, uninstall): Handle the dlname file separately.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag): Added to allow programs to
+ use reflexive dlopens.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Include the mode name in any help messages.
+ (dlname): New mode to give the name to be used with dlopen(3).

+ convenience libraries.
+
+1997-03-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Allow the creation of static convenience
+ libraries made of libtool objects. Suggested by David
+ Mosberger-Tang.
+
+1997-03-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: On AIX, libtool also needs to look for `B' symbols
+ in nm output. These are global variable definitions.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Linking with -static should link against the
+ linklib if old_library is empty (like it is on AIX).
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Change the order of OS detection, so that
+ linux-gnu* is detected before gnu*.
+
+ * Makefile.am (libtool): Use the correct CC, RANLIB, LD, when
+ generating libtool. From Carl D. Roth.
+
+ * configure.in: Find out the user-supplied CC, LD, RANLIB. From
+ Carl D. Roth.
+
+1997-03-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Linking with -static should link against the old
+ library, not linklib.

+ global variable definition, as well as functions.
+
+1997-03-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Make sure either enable_shared or enable_static is
+ configured. Reported by Tom Tromey.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Bomb out if no library types are configured.
+
+1997-02-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): Renamed
+ from `hardcode_libdir_flag'.
+ (library_names_spec): Renamed from `lib_names'.
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_action): Change value from
+ `rpath' to `immediate'.
+
+ * replfunc.m4: Add AM_FUNC_ALLOCA, AM_FUNC_MEMCMP, and
+ AM_STRUCT_ST_BLOCKS.
+
+1997-02-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Transform *-*-linux* to *-*-linux-gnu* to support
+ old-style config.guess scripts.
+
+1997-02-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Create objdir *before* linking a program into it.
+
+1997-02-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Any ld --version that returns GNU is probably a GNU
+ ld. From Marcus Daniels.
+
+ * libtool.m4: Added AM_REPLACE_FUNCS.
+
+1997-02-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to *-*-osf4. From Bruno Haible.
+
+1997-02-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: AIX 3 and 4 ld only hardcodes LIBPATH if -L is not
+ specified. This behaviour is the same with both xlc and gcc.
+
+1997-02-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * doc/platforms.texi: Yaay! We found a workaround for HP-UX
+ /bin/sh buffer overflows. From Eric Backus.
+
+1997-02-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Release 0.9.
+
+ * PLATFORMS, doc/platforms.texi, Makefile.am, doc/Makefile.am:
+ Move PLATFORMS to doc/platforms.texi.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Use hardcode_libdir_flag to get a library
+ directory into the resulting binary.
+ Use hardcode_action, and make many simplifying changes to have
+ compilation and finalization be consistent with each other.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Not so amazing! It's AIX cc that hardcodes direct
+ libraries... gcc doesn't, though.
+ (link_rpath_flag): Change link_rpath_flag to be
+ hardcode_libdir_flag.
+ (hardcode_action): New variable to simplify ltmain.sh.
+
+ * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Do the full make sequence with
+ --disable-shared, then without.
+
+ * tests/demo-sttc.test: Configure the demo directory with
+ --disable-shared.
+
+1997-01-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Change to take advantage of linkers that don't
+ hardcode direct libraries.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Amazing! AIX 3 linker doesn't hardcode direct
+ libraries, which makes it less buggy than AIX 4. Reported by Mark
+ Kettenis.
+
+ * demo/configure.in: Check for the math library.
+
+ * demo/foo.c (foo): Change to use the `cos' function, so that we
+ need to link against another library.
+
+ * tests/hardcode.test: Rewrite to use fgrep on output from ``strings
+ -a'' if using fgrep directly on the binary files fails. From Mark
+ Kettenis.
+
+1997-01-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Export the PATH variable in order to find
+ the program, rather than giving a full path. This helps give the
+ program a less confusing value for argv[0].
+
+ * tests/hardcode.test: Make sure that ../demo/libhello.la really is a
+ shared library before running hardcoding tests.
+
+1997-01-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Release 0.8.
+
+1997-01-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

+ distribution.
+
+1997-01-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * libtool.m4: For IRIX 6, ld needs -n32 if cc uses it. Reported
+ by Bruno Haible.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: IRIX ld does not hardcode direct libraries.
+ Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+1997-01-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_shlibpath_var): Allow new
+ value, `unsupported', since most linkers do not allow you to use
+ shlibpath_var for initial linking.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Lots of bug fixes from Bruno Haible. Set wl on
+ OSF/1, fix definitions of hardcode_* variables.
+ (archive_cmds): Fix not to use +h on HP-UX 9.x. Reported by Bruno
+ Haible.
+
+ * tests/demo-conf.test: Use the CONFIG_SHELL environment variable when
+ running configure in the demo directory. From Bruno Haible.
+
+ * tests/Makefile.am (clean-local): Make distclean in the demo directory,
+ so that ``make clean; env CC=cc make check'' works as one would
+ expect.
+
+ * tests/demo-make.test: Fix typo (use $make instead of make). Reported
+ by Akim Demaille.
+
+1997-01-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * libtoolize.in: Handle explicit AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR settings.
+ Suggested by Akim Demaille.
+
+ * libtool.m4: Change ltconfig line to use $CONFIG_SHELL when it is
+ specified. Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+1997-01-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hc-direct): Do better searching for the proper
+ name to do a direct link.
+ (hc-libpath): Make allowances if shlibpath_var cannot be used
+ to find libraries at link time, such as on AIX.
+
+ * Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Remove ansi2knr.1 and ansi2knr.c.
+
+ * demo/foo.c, demo/hello.c, demo/main.c: Change ANSI prototypes to
+ KNR form, for better portability, and less ansi2knr hair.
+
+ * demo/configure.in: Remove AM_FUNC_PROTOTYPES.
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am: Remove ansi2knr from the AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
+
+ * demo/ansi2knr.1, demo/ansi2knr.c: Removed these files.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Use 1>&2 consistently to direct errors and
+ warnings to stderr.
+ (compile): Fix missing single quote.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_direct): On Solaris at least, using
+ DIR/libNAME.so does not hardcode DIR, so introduce a new hardcode
+ variable to reflect that.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): If linking with $link_static_flag fails,
+ then retry without it, but still use the .a versions of
+ uninstalled libtool archives.
+
+ * tests/tlibtool: Rewrote to grab all the settings from the generated
+ libtool script.
+
+ * tests/hardcode.test: Make allowances if shlibpath_var cannot be used
+ to find libraries at link time, such as on AIX.
+
+1997-01-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Eval $link_static_flag. Reported by Bruno
+ Haible.
+
+ * PLATFORMS: Add to distribution. Suggested by Bruno Haible.
+
+1997-01-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * tests/demo-conf.test, tests/demo-inst.test, tests/demo-unst.test,
+ tests/hardcode.test:
+ Use $make instead of make.
+
+ * tests/defs (make): Add definition of $make that uses the $MAKE
+ environment variable, if set. Suggested by Bruno Haible.
+
+ * tests/demo-unst.test (leftovers): Change the find command to ignore
+ files beginning with a dot, as egrep -v doesn't seem to do the
+ trick. Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+1997-01-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Add support for SCO OpenServer 5.x. From
+ Christopher Olsen.
+
+ (can_build_shared): Initialize at the top of the file, so that
+ shared libraries aren't built on platforms that don't support
+ them.
+
+ * tests/hardcode.test: Added a test to make sure that libtool's idea of
+ hardcoding system linkers is correct.
+
+1997-01-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in, libtoolize.in, doc/libtool.texi:
+ Update the copyright completion years.
+
+1997-01-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+

+
+1997-01-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: HP-UX 9 support is the same as HP-UX 10, so the
+ port is trivial.
+
+ * libtoolize.in: Add --dry-run option, -n for short.
+
+1997-01-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): On at least SunOS, /bin/sh doesn't
+ understand "export something=val". From Bruno Haible.
+
+ * tests/Makefile.am (distclean-local): Remove all files that the tests
+ may have created. Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+ * For all tests, discover srcdir when running from the command
+ line.
+
+ * tests/demo-unst.test: Don't fail if make uninstall doesn't delete
+ files beginning with a dot, since spurious .nfsXXX files may be
+ present when running NFS. Reported by Bruno Haible.
+
+1997-01-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (compile): Recognize valid source file suffixes for
+ Fortran and C++.
+
+ * tests/suffix.test: New test to guarantee that libtool compile
+ recognizes valid source file suffices.
+
+1996-12-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Don't allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid
+ object type suffixes, in spite of Automake's current ansi2knr
+ implementation. Not all compilers allow non-`.o' suffixes.
+
+1996-12-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Delete the `libtool' version type.
+
+1996-12-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Use the full autoconf syntax when checking for GNU
+ C. Delete library stripping program, until we have a correct
+ test.
+
+1996-12-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: On AIX 3, use /usr/ucb/nm, not /ucb/nm. From Mark
+ Kettenis.
+
+1996-12-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ Reported by Charles Kerr:
+ * doc/libtool.texi (Creating Object Files): Doc fix independant ->
+ independent.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs): SunOS 4 doesn't support shared library
+ dependencies.
+
+1996-12-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * Release 0.7.
+
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add README-automake to the
+ distribution.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): When linking libtool libraries, use
+ standard objects if they are PIC. This prevents spurious warnings
+ about invalid suffixes on AIX.
+
+ * demo/Makefile.am: Rename libhell to libhello, so that we're not
+ quite as offensive.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Remove unnecessary host validity checking.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Don't force people to use libNAME.la: SOMETHING.la
+ is good enough (for consistency with *.a handling).
+
+ * tests/demo.test: Break up into demo-conf.test, demo-make.test,
+ demo-exec.test, demo-inst.test, and demo-unst.test, so that passes
+ and failures are reported more quickly.
+
+ * tests/link-2.test: Test to make sure that .lo files don't get built
+ directly into programs.
+
+1996-12-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Accept files ending in .a as standard
+ object files. Reported by Ulrich Drepper.
+ Remove support for creating profiled libraries (for now).
+ Transform all library objects into standard objects when linking a
+ program.
+
+ * ltconfig.in (thisdir): How embarrassing! An error in the regexp
+ for finding the directory component of the script path.
+
+ * tests/tlibtool: A typically-configured libtool script, that uses
+ ../ltmain.sh.in for its backend.
+
+ * tests/link.test: Make sure that it is legal to link against .a files.
+
+1996-12-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (compile): Support `.S' (preprocessed assembler)
+ files. Reported by Anthony Green.
+
+ * libtoolize.in: Give clearer instrutions for how to update
+ aclocal.m4.
+
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (link): Add support for creating
+ reloadable objects.
+
+1996-12-04 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix passing -n flag to `libtool
+ --finish'.
+ (compile): Compile `.lo' and `.o' objects at the same time so that
+ non-PIC objects (if they are available) can be used for linking
+ into programs and creating static archives. Suggested by Ulrich
+ Drepper.
+
+1996-12-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Give the full path to the libtool library

+ our portable shell scripts.
+
+1996-12-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Delete reference to ABOUT-LIBS.
+
+ * tests: Added new subdirectory.
+
+ * doc/libtool.texi: Doc fixes, and finished up the Configuring
+ chapter.
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid object
+ file suffixes, for Automake's ansi2knr implementation.
+ New option -version-info replaces -version-file.
+
+ [help]: Give a pointer to mode-specific help when appropriate.
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Changed messages to correspond to AM_PROG_CC_STDC.
+
+ * demo: Also test Automake's ansi2knr support.
+
+1996-11-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Bug fixes for AIX 4, and for static platforms.
+

+ Use test -f instead of test -e.
+
+1996-11-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltconfig.in: Don't run the RANLIB test unless RANLIB wasn't
+ set.
+ Be verbose about the environment variables we were configured

+
+1996-11-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+

+ installation... don't try to enforce dependencies.
+
+1996-11-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Fix up $libdir to be $dest in install mode.
+
+1996-11-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * ltmain.sh: Finished rewrite of compile, link, and install
+ modes.
+
+ * New ChangeLog file for libtool-0.7, since I've totally rewritten
+ libtool.
+
+1996-03-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
+
+ * For historical reasons: this is when I started writing libtool.
If symbols from your @emph{executable} are needed to satisfy unresolved
references in a library you want to dlopen you will have to use the flag
-@samp{-export-dynamic}.
+@samp{-export-dynamic}.
You should use @samp{-export-dynamic} while linking the executable that calls
dlopen:
without crashing.

-Libtool emulates @samp{-export-dynamic} and @samp{-dlopen}

+Libtool emulates @samp{-dlopen} on static platforms by linking objects
+into the program at compile time, and creating data structures that
+represent the program's symbol table.
In order to use this feature, you must declare the objects you want your
application to dlopen by using the @samp{-dlopen} or @samp{-dlpreopen}
symbols linked into the program. For each @samp{-dlpreloaded} file
there is an element with the @var{name} of the file and a @var{address}
of @code{0}, followed by all symbols exported from this file.
+For the executable itself the special name @@PROGRAM@@ is used.
The last element has a @var{name} and @var{address} of @code{0}.
