- * ltconfig.in (ac_compile): Use $ac_ext instead of .c.
- (ac_link): Likewise.
- (dlfcn.h, ac_try): Do not add filename, it is already in
- ac_compile.
- Reported by Stephane Conversy <Stephane.Conversy@lri.fr>
-
- * ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*): Disable hardcode_into_libs until it
- works together with fast_install.
+ * Makefile.am:
+ * libtool.m4:
+ * ltconfig.in:
+ * ltmain.in:
+ * doc/libtool.texi
+ * tests/defs:
- * libtool.m4: Use host when --target is not specified.
+ The beginnings of multi-compiler/language support in libtool.
- * configure.in: AC_SUBST variables that are used by ltconfig to
- build libtool.
+ Integrated Alexandre's configuration tags patch, part of Thomas'
+ patch and part of my patch.
- * ltconfig.in (irix6*): Do not override deplibs_check_method
- here.
+ These patches make it possible for libtool to support
+ compilers besides C compilers. This also includes support for
+ linkers besides `ld', and similarly for other tools commonly used
+ for development. See the libtool documentation for more details.
- * libtool.m4: Do not AC_SUBST anything other than LIBTOOL.
+ Moved all C compiler related configuration code to `ltcf-c.sh',
+ described below.
-1999-11-20 Michael Forster <email@michael-forster.de>
+ Multi-compiler/language still isn't complete but testing is now
+ possible.
- * ltconfig.in (linux-gnu*): Set hardcode_into_libs=yes.
+ * ltcf-c.sh:
-1999-11-29 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+ Added this file. It contains all of the C compiler related
+ configuration code that was previously in ltconfig.in. This
+ script is meant to be source by the ltconfig script alone. It is
+ not meant for use by the user. Eventually, the contents of this
+ file will be moved to `libtool.m4'.
- * ltconfig.in: Be friendlier to C++ compilers when testing
- for dlopen support.
- Reported by Stephan Kulow <coolo@itm.mu-luebeck.de>
+ * ltcf-cxx.sh:
-1999-11-26 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
+ Added this file. It contains C++ compiler related configuration
+ code (e.g. C++ compiler as linker, etc). It is meant to be used
+ when creating configuration tags using the newly added "--add-tag"
+ ltconfig option. See the libtool documentation for more details.
+ Eventually, the contents of this file will be moved to
+ `libtool.m4'.
- * libtool.m4: better use of $target instead of $host to support
- cross compilation.
- Reported by Sam Latinga <slouken@devolution.com>
+ This script also includes support for extracting the objects and
+ libraries the compiler would use when linking a C++ binary. This
+ support should allow static constructors and the like to work
+ properly.

- Reported by Sascha Schumann <sascha@schumann.cx>
-
-1999-10-04 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltmain.in (-no-install): This doesn't work on win32 since
- the search path for libraries is not encoded in the binary,
- and dlls not in $PATH won't be found. Fall back to -no-fast-install
- instead.
-
- * ltmain.in (-no-fast-install): Wrapper script used to add the

-
- * ltmain.in (ltdll.c): Support for crosscompiling from linux to
- mingw32.
-
-1999-06-23 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltconfig.in (cygwin, export_symbols_cmds): If there is already
- an extracted and compiled ltdll.c, then don't delete, reextract
- and recompile.
- (cygwin, archive_expsym_cmds): Make sure the ltdll source has been
- extracted and compiled before referencing the object, since there
- are paths through the code which run archive_expsym_cmds without
- running export_symbols_cmds.
-
-1999-06-20 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-

-
-1999-06-18 Thomas Tanner <tanner@ffii.org>

-1999-06-18 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltmain.in (outputname): When generating the executable wrapper
- script, $outputname already has the $exeext suffix, so we needn't
- add it again.
-
-1999-06-16 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * libltdl/configure.in (ac_cv_lib_dl_dlopen): missing "x" in test
- comparison corrected.
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (sys_wll_open): libltdl expects this function to
- fail if it is unable to physically load the library. Sadly,
- LoadLibrary will search the loaded libraries for a match and
- return one of them if the path search load fails. Simulate a
- failure in this case for compatibility with the other APIs.
- Also, LoadLibrary takes the liberty of adding `.dll' to library
- names passed without an extension, we now add a trailing `.' to

-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (sys_wll_close): Strangely enough, Microsoft have
- decided that LoadLibrary returns `0' for success, yet FreeLibrary
- returns `0' for failure! The FreeLibrary call used to interpret
- `0' as success for both functions.

- * ltconfig.in: use eval when setting have_dlfcn_h, reformatting
-
-1999-06-12 Thomas Tanner <tanner@ffii.org>
-
- * ltmain.in: store old archives in deplibs and old_deplibs,
- retain the order of dependency libraries (even old archives),
- determining the absolute directory name didn't work due to a typo,
- add the library search paths of all dependency libraries when
- linking a library (fixes IRIX 5.2 bug)

- * ltconfig.in: Reverted June 6's patch for new GNU ld output, it
- is no longer needed, as ld reverted to the original format.
- * NEWS: Likewise.

-1999-06-09 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltconfig.in (exeext): autoconf's AC_EXEEXT uses "no" to indicate
- no extension, and we must do the same in order to share the cache
- value. Also we must ignore conftest.err which HPsUX (at least)
- fills with gratuitous warnings.
- (objext): for consistency, do the same as above.
- Reported by Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>
-
-1999-06-09 Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in (exeext): Use quotes in the test, to prevent a
- failure in sh.test.
-
-1999-06-09 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Reordered tests to be more like configure.in's
- recommended order (programs first, then libraries, etc.).
- Performed a manual ``constant folding pass'' (eg: s/eval "test
- \"echo '$''{'lt_cv_dlopen'+set}'`\" != set/test
- "${lt_cv_dlopen+set}" != set/).
- s/test "${foo+set}" = "set"/test "X${foo+set}" = Xset/g
-
- * ltconfig.in (link_static_flag): Accept, in order of decreasing
- preference: the cached value; the default value for the current
- host. Also test that the compiler accepts the flag, and cache
- that result too.
-
- * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): Accept, in order of decreasing
- preference: the cached value; the default value for the current
- host. Also test that the compiler accepts the flag, and cache

- the cached value; an environment setting; ``ln -s'' if it works;
- ``ln'' if ``ln -s'' doesn't appear to work.
-
- * ltconfig.in (objext): Accept, in order of decreasing preference:
- the cached value; the result of a test object compilation.
-
- * ltconfig.in (RANLIB): Accept, in order of decreasing preference:
- the cached value; an environment setting; the first file called
- ``ranlib'' in the user's path.
-
- * ltmain.in (exeext): Use $exeext when working out the names of
- programs (but not the wrapper script itself due to a stupidity in
- win32 which hardwires the .exe extension to the binary loader!).
- * ltconfig.in (exeext): Now that the wrapper script tries to move
- executables, we need to know whether they have an extension (ala
- AC_EXEEXT). Since we can't rely on AC_EXEEXT having been called
- in configure.in, we must be able to check for ourselves, though we
- can look for a cached result incase AC_EXEEXT was called.
-
- * ltconfig.in (cygwin, pic_flag): Force separate compilation of
- objects for dlls vs. objects for static archives. Using a cpp
- macro also allows us to decide whether or not we need to use
- dllexport/import declarations.
-
- * ltconfig.in (cygwin, need_version): Set to no, otherwise module
- dll's end up with mighty long names!

-1999-04-11 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * libltdl/configure.in: check for shl_load in libdld
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (shl_close, shl_sym): use (shl_t *) instead of shl_t
- * ltconfig.in (check for gcc): removed a bogus line,
- check for shl_load in libdld
- * ltmain.in: added a warning to the header of the .la file
- to warn users against deleting the file,
- link shared against static libraries if
- deplibs_check_method == pass_all
-
-1999-04-10 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * libtool.m4 (AC_PROG_LD, AC_PROG_NM): When looking for programs,
- try $ac_exeext too, so that they're found on DJGPP/MS-DOS.
- * ltconfig.in: Likewise.
- Reported by Robert S. Maier <rsm@math.arizona.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (Usage): Removed --enable-dlopen-self.
- Reported by Pavel Roskin <pavel_roskin@geocities.com>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Moved sysv4 before sysv4.*.
- (symcode): Brian's overrider is specific to sysv4, not sysv4*.
-
-1999-04-09 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * NEWS, README: Motorola System V 4 support
- * doc/PLATFORMS: added mk88-motorola-sysv4
- * ltconfig.in: installed patch from Brian Ford <ford@vss.fsi.com>
- to support mk88-motorola-sysv4
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: some cleanups in the libltdl documentation
-
-1999-04-07 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (--fallback-echo): Do not put an inline document and
- an exec in the same if construct; otherwise the inline document
- may not be removed.
- * ltmain.in (--fallback-echo): Likewise.
- Reported by John David Anglin <dave.anglin@nrc.ca>
-
- * dryrun.test: It would still fail at random times, because `cp'
- and `mv' are not guaranteed to preserve the timestamps of the
- installed files. Instead of preserving them, just remove them
- before the dry uninstall test. Redirect dry-run output to stderr,
- so that it can be easily separated from the regular output.
-
-1999-04-07 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * NEWS: support for moved libraries
- * libtool.m4: another DJGPP fix
-
-1999-04-07 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * doc/PLATFORMS: Updated to 1.3 for all platforms I've got. I'll
- make sure 1.3 won't be released unless it passes all tests on
- those platforms.
-
- * doc/libtool.texi (Compile mode): Document potential problem and
- work-around for `-c -o dir/foo.lo'.
-
- * tests/dryrun.test: The constant modifications of libtool would
- cause main.o to be updated at the wrong time; the new approach is
- to modify the libtool script so that it enables dry run depending
- on whether an environment variable is set or not. I've also moved
- `after' and `before' to a directory deep within $objdir, instead
- of creating it in ../tests.
- * tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Removed.
-
-1999-04-06 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * tests/dryrun.test: We cannot rely on setting LIBTOOL, because
- automake may use sub-makes, and the setting will not be propagated
- to them on some makes. Instead, create a dry version of libtool
- and switch between it and the original one before and after dry
- runs.
- * tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Added libtool-*, created by
- dryrun.test.
-
- * tests/dryrun.test: Use cmp instead of diff.
- (before, after): Create them within ../tests.
- (libtool): Set to `/bin/sh ./libtool' by default, but use LIBTOOL,
- SHELL and top_builddir from the environment if available. For dry
- runs, use "$libtool -n".
- * tests/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Added before and after.
- * ltmain.in: Do not create links to object files in dry runs.
-
-1999-04-06 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltmain.in: added a missing line of the ILD patch
-
- * NEWS: improved DJGPP support
- * doc/libtool.texi: removed hardcode_into_libs documentation
- * libtool.m4: some DJGPP fixes
- * ltconfig.in: ditto, reverted one of my previous patches: we need
- to check for NM, removed the hardcode_into_libs support since
- no platform seems to support it
- * ltmain.in: some DJGPP fixes, removed the hardcode_into_libs support
-
-1999-04-05 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (netbsd*, GNU ld): Support a.out shared libraries
-
- * Makefile.am (CVS): allow command-line overriding of cvs
-
- * ltconfig.in (exclude_expsyms): Exclude _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ by
- default, as most a.out platforms use it, and end up in trouble if
- we preload it, so it's safer to rule it out by default, and
- special case its removal from exclude_expsyms if someone ever
- complains.
-
-1999-04-05 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: reorder tests to reflect execution order,
- documented dryrun.test and depdemo*
- * ltmain.in (lt_preloaded_symbols): dry-run mode bugfix
- * tests/dryrun.test: new test to check whether the dry-run
- mode works properly
-
- * demo/run.test: removed the unnecessary test
- * demo/Makefile.am: ditto
- * ltmain.in: set the DLL search path on cygwin,mingw and os2
-
-1999-04-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (sunos4*, GNU ld): -Bstatic is not enough for
- deplibs.test to work with GNU ld; -Bshareable is needed here.
-
- * ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs, amigaos*): Disable shared libs with
- native ld too.
-
- * ltconfig.in (sunos4*, GNU ld): Reordered.
-
- * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, sunos4*): Revert to -Bstatic; the
- native linker doesn't even support -Bshareable, only GNU ld does.
- Do not use `gcc -shared' in archive_cmds, it breaks deplibs.test.
-
- * ltconfig.in: if ld_shlibs=no, set can_build_shared=no too,
- otherwise it will just be disregarded. This would cause
- netbsd/m68k with GNU ld a.out, and certainly many other platforms,
- to incorrectly believe that shared libraries were supported, while
- archive_cmds was empty, causing shared libraries not to be created
-
-1999-04-03 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * NEWS: improved support for AIX and HP/UX
-
-1999-04-03 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * NEWS: updated
- * libtool.m4: check for main in libm instead of cos
- * ltmain.in: cosmetic fixes, don't try to link libraries only once
- (although it's not necessary on many platforms and looks ugly...),
-
-1999-04-02 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltmain.in (convenience): fixed race condition when more than one
- library was linked with the same convenience library by
- uniquifying the extract directory. It is now named after the new
- library *and* the old one, and lives in the objdir of the new one.
-
- * ltmain.in (-L*): do not abort just because a directory specified
- with -L does not exist; just warn and discard it
-
- * depdemo/l1/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): no-dependencies
- * depdemo/l2/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): ditto
- * depdemo/l3/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): ditto
- * depdemo/l4/Makefile.am (AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS): ditto
-
- * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds, sunos4*): where we used -Bstatic, we
- should have been using -Bshareable
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): clean EXTRA_* from deplibs-check
-
- * libtool.m4 (LDFLAGS, LIBS): pass them to ltconfig, for the tests
- that involve linking
- * Makefile.am (LDFLAGS, LIBS, libtool, clibtool): ditto
- * tests/Makefile.am (CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LIBS): set
- (LDFLAGS, LIBS, TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): pass them down
-
-1999-04-02 Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>
-
- * doc/PLATFORMS: 1.2f ok on various versions of hpux cc
-
-1999-04-02 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (link_all_deplibs): set to unknown by default
- * ltmain.in: test != no, not = yes
- * doc/libtool.texi: document unknown
-
-1999-04-01 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: documented deplibs.test
-
- * demo/Makefile.am: moved testsuite specific declarations to the end,
- the deplibs check is now optional
- * libltdl/configure.in: read libtool --config only once,
- merged AC_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE+AC_SYS_NM_PARSE from libtool.m4
- * libtool.m4: AC_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE+AC_SYS_NM_PARSE were not
- used, lt_dlopen and silent may be empty, AC_SYS_LIBTOOL_CYGWIN
- no longer necessary
- * ltconfig.in: NM is already checked in libtool.m4,
- * ltmain.in: always link all static dependency_libs
- * tests/Makefile.am: added deplibs.test
- * tests/demo-exec.test, demo-inst.test: removed hell0
- * tests/deplibs.test: new test to test the deplibs_check_method
-
-1999-03-31 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * ltmain.in: always link a library before its dependency libs
- * mdemo/Makefile.am: test -export-symbols-regex
-
-1999-03-30 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: fixed a typo
- * libtoolize.in: add the libtool scripts to libltdl.tar.gz
- * libtool.m4: don't AC_SUBST(USE_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE),
- AC_CHECK_LIBM sets LIBM, AC_LIBLTDL_INSTALLABLE doesn't work
- when libltdl is already installed
- * *demo/Makefile.am: use LIBM
- * *demo/configure.in: AC_SUBST LIBM
- * libltdl/configure.in: use ac_cv_sys_symbol_underscore instead of
- USE_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE
- * ltconfig.in: added link_all_deplibs variable
- * doc/libtool.texi: document it
- * ltmain.in: always search for libname.la - don't eval libname_spec,
- when linking libraries against static ones just print a warning
- and add them to dependency_libs, add -lc before deplibs,
- always link all dependencies of a static library or if
- link_all_deplibs is yes, hardcode library paths if
- hardcode_into_libs is no, don't link against dependency_libs
- that already are deplibs
-
-1999-03-30 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (aix4*, collect2name): make sure collect2 exists
- before running string on it, to avoid errors on old gccs
- Reported by Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu>
-
- * ltconfig.in (aix4*, hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): unless we're
- using gcc with old collect2, use -b libpath to hardcode the
- library search path
-
- * ltmain.in, ltconfig.in: reverted most of the quoting changes
- from 1999-03-25; Gary's delay_variable_subst patch from 1999-02-19
- obviates it. Keep only quoting of $PATH, for uniformity with
- other systems that already did it
-
-1999-03-29 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
-
- * libltdl/ltdl.c (lt_dladdsearchdir): Forgot to mallocate the
- extra byte of memory for the teminating NUL, and forgot to
- strcpy the original path in to the new memory before appending
- the new path compononent.
-
-1999-03-27 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * NEWS: updated
- * README: updated (BeOS support, no longer shared libraries
- support for AmigaOS), cleanups, we have now two mailing lists
- * REAMDE-alpha: autogen -> bootstrap, we have now two mailing lists
- * THANKS: added Xavier Pianet

- now supported, cleanups and minor corrections
- * libltdl/COPYING.LIB: new file
- * libltdl/ltdl.[ch]: added special exception to the LGPL license
- * libtool.spec: removed, it was outdated
- * Makefile.am: removed libtool.spec
- * ltmain.in: use TMPDIR when possible, create a subdirectory
- in the temporary directory, added -export-symbols-regex to the help,
-
-1999-03-25 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * demo/Makefile.am: create a static library, link two libtool
- archives with it, then link the program hell0 with both
- * demo/hell1.c, demo/hell2.c: dummy files used to create the
- libtool archives without introducing symbol conflicts
- * tests/demo-exec.test, tests/demo-inst.test: run the new program
- * ltconfig.in (irix5*, irix6*, deplibs_check_method): pass_all
-
- * ltmain.in ($PATH): instead of modifying the PATH, better prevent
- its expansion the first time *_cmds variables are eval'ed. Modify
- $show within loops that eval them so as to expand variables
- * ltconfig.in (*_cmds): quote $ so that they're not expanded by
- the first eval
-
-1999-03-25 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltmain.in ($PATH): Expand any tildes in the users path to the
- contents of $HOME to avoid problems with *_cmds splitting and
- evaluation.
-
-1999-03-24 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * TODO: support -dlopen for libraries
- * doc/PLATFORMS: Erez Zadok reported that libtool works on bsdi 4.0.1
- * doc/libtool.texi (libltdl): libltdl supports BeOS
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: shlib_ext was declared even if LTDL_SHLIB_EXT
- didn't exist, partially reverted my previous patch: BeOS will
- automatically search in ADDON_PATH
- * ltmain.in: don't allow relative run-paths, fixed a typo in a warning,
- ignore -dlopen self for libraries and objects,
- only accept -L paths that exist, minor cleanups,
- bugfix: add -lc for normal libraries, not convenicence libraries
- removed offensive warnings/comments
-
-1999-03-24 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs, amigaos*): disable shared libraries
-
-1999-03-23 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * libltdl/configure.in: the sed expression for finding the shared
- library extension used to think the . in [.] for the cygwin
- shared_library_names_spec was the start of the extension!! We now
- remove anything in square brackets (assuming that the square
- brackets delimit a sed or expr expression which is not part of the
- extension) before looking for the extension.
-
- * TODO (cygwin): food for thought re: mutually dependant dlls.
-
-1999-03-21 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * tests/build-relink.test: if we relink and have hardcode_direct,
- removing an uninstalled library breaks an uninstalled program
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: documented convenience libraries
- * TODO: removed entry about it
-
- * tests/*-unst.test: if directory is not configured, skip it
- * tests/demo.test, tests/mdemo.test: unused, removed
- * tests/depdemo.test: ditto
-
-1999-03-20 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * doc/libtool.texi (link mode): documentation for -module updated
- * ltconfig.in: fast-install mode doesn't work for
- hardcode_into_libs=yes
- * ltmain.in: bugfix: "-dlopen self [-all]-static" wouldn't use
- dlopen_self_static, automatically enable -export-dynamic when
- using "-dlopen self", always make run-paths absolute,
- ignore -lc only on platforms that don't have such a library,
- cleanups in the ILD code, find even installed libtool libraries
- that were moved, before generating the DLL-import library we need
- to set libname, improved hardcoding of shlibpath for libraries,
- don't generate an installable pseudo-library for convenience
- libraries, bugfix: export_symbols would be removed immediately
- before it is used
-
-1999-03-19 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * use the same header in all configure.in's and Makefile.am's
- * NEWS: improved support for BeOS and Cygwin
- * TODO: ILD branch was merged, all internal variables and macros
- are now documented
- * demo/Makefile.am: use $(LIBS) instead of -lm
- * doc/libtool.texi: documented new variable hardcode_into_libs
- and thread_safe_flag_spec, renamed all AM_ENABLE/DISABLE_* macros
- to AC_*, documented AC_DISABLE_FAST_INSTALL and AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
- * libltdl/ltdl.c: added two new error messages (cannot_open_error,
- cannot_close_error), use them where approriate,
- BeOS support (thanks to Xavier Pianet), on BeOS search modules
- additionally in ADDON_PATH
- * libtool.m4: rewrote AC_CHECK_LIBM: BeOS and Cygwin don't have
- libm and *-ncr-sysv4.3* requires libmw
- * ltconfig.in: don't check for LoadLibrary, hardcode dlopen
- configuration for BeOS and Cygwin
- * ltmain.in: fix sourcing of .la files on Solaris
- (patch by Raja R Harinath)
-
-1999-03-19 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (sunos4*, with_gnu_ld, hardcode_minus_L): remove, we
- have -rpath
- (aix4*, without_gnu_ld, hardcode_shlibpath_var): unsupported is
- default
- (hpux9*, hpux10*, hpux11*, archive_cmds): drop +s, unneeded here
- (hpux9*, hpux10*, hpux11*, hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): add +s
- before +b
- (hpux9*, hpux10*, hpux11*, shlibpath_overrides_runpath): since +s
- appears before +b, set it to yes
- (hardcode_shlibpath_var, hardcode_action): do not use
- shlibpath_var to specify the compile-time search path; it loses,
- and we may end up linking with pre-installed older versions of
- libraries instead of yet-to-be-installed ones
- (*, hardcode_direct, hardcode_minus_L): remove entries that set
- them to no, that is default
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (hc-direct, hc-libpath, hc-minusL): link with
- $$hardcode_libdir_flag_spec, if available, with libdir=$(libdir),
- to make sure the hardcode_* variables will produce the expected
- results even in the presence of a hardcoding flag; depend on
- libhello.la having been installed already
- (hc-libflag): link with the installed library, but try to
- hard-code the uninstalled one
- * doc/libtool.texi: document the changes
-
- * tests/*.test: when a test fails, skip tests that depend on it.
- If a certain configuration is not supported, skip all its tests.
-
- * doc/libtool.texi: reorder tests to reflect execution order
-
- * tests/noinst-link.test: new test
- * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): added noinst-link.test
- * doc/libtool.texi: document it
-
-1999-03-19 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@oranda.demon.co.uk>
-
- * ltmain.in (dependency_libs): There is no reason to infer that
- the pseudo library is invalid if dependency_libs='' at
- install-time, or else libltdl/libltdl.la is invalid!!
-
-1999-03-18 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * merged my inter-library dependencies code from the ILD branch:
- * NEWS: inter-library dependencies are now supported
- * configure.in: add the depdemo subdirectory
- * depdemo/*: new demo to demonstrate inter-library dependencies
- * tests/depdemo*: new tests for depdemo
- * ltconfig.in: added hardcode_into_libs (whether library paths
- should be hardcoded into the libraries),
- it currently defaults to 'no'
- * ltmain.in: new internal 'relink' mode to relink libraries
- on platforms with hardcode_into_libs=yes, save command line
- arguments in libtool_args, accept relative -L directories,
- ignore -lm on BeOS and Cygwin, always ignore -lc,
- handle -l, -L and .la arguments later, always make the library
- installation directory (-rpath) absolute, in relink mode don't
- delete the not-relinked library and exit immediately after relinking,
- try to find already-installed libtool libraries that were specified
- using -l, support hardcoding of library paths into libraries too,
- export shlibpath before linking libraries, and a lot of other
- big changes that I don't want to describe here... please read
- the source.
-
- * merged Gary's Win32 code from the ILD branch:
- * NEWS: Win32 DLLs are now supported
- * TODO: removed .a library namespace clash for win32. It is
- now resolved.
- * ltconfig.in (cygwin, library_names_spec): removed $libname.a.
- Creating a dll with libtool no longer creates an import library.
- * ltconfig.in (extract_expsyms_cmds): Create $objdir if it does
- not exist -- i.e. we need to generate import an import library
- in a directory which has no libs of its own.
- * doc/libtool.texi (old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds,
- extract_expsyms_cmds): documented these new variables.
- * ltconfig.in (extract_expsyms_cmds): New variable. Commands to
- extract the exported symbol list from a dll.
- (old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds): New variable. Commands to build
- an old archive from the extracted expsyms list.
- * ltmain.in: run the cmds in extract_expsyms_cmds and
- old_archive_from_expsyms_cmds as necessary.
- * ltconfig.in (cygwin, old_archive_from_new_cmds): no longer
- required.
- * ltconfig.in (cygwin, shlibpath_overrides_runpath): I'm not even
- sure whether win32 honours the runpath at all when searching for
- a dll to load! Anyway, when set to yes this prevents a gratuitous
- warning.
- * ltmain.in (deplib): The cygwin environment doesn't actually have
- -lm, and although the linker fakes having one, specifiying it to
- libtool will break ILD, so we ignore it when generating
- dependencies.
-
