-
- * 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 <garyv@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>.

- commands for cygwin32.
-
- * libtool.m4 (AM_SYS_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE): New macro; find out
- whether compiled symbols have an extra leading underscore.

-
-1998-11-27 Gary V. Vaughan <garyv@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
- `;'.

- * mdemo: modified mdemo to work with the new libltdl
- * tests/mdemo-exec.test, tests/mdemo-inst.test: use .la files
-
-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

-
-1998-11-19 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>

-
- * */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
-
-1998-11-18 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * 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>
-

-
-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 (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
-
-1998-11-07 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>
-
- * mdemo/main.c: removed hardcoded library names; link against -lm

-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,

-
-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 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
-
- * ltconfig.in (need_locks): if neither `-c -o' nor hard links are
- available, fallback to not so safe mechanism, by setting
- need_locks to warn

- 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.

- -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>
-

- -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>

-
- * 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.

-
- * 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,

- 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

- 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.

-
- * 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

- * 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.

- 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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-1998-01-19 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.
-
-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 ${wl} on HP-UX
- because link_static_flag is never evaled. From Eric Backus.
-
-1997-12-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * demo/Makefile.am (helldl_DEPENDENCIES): Add `libhello.la' to our
- dependencies so that parallel builds work correctly. From Jim
- Meyering.
-
- * Makefile.am ($(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 `${wl}-E'
- export_dynamic_flag_spec. Reported by Matthias Hoelzer.
-
-1997-11-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (sed_quote_subst): Oops. We forgot to
- quote backticks. Reported by Joop van de Wege.
-
-1997-11-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in (symcode): On IRIX, don't extract undefined
- symbols. When a function is inlined by G++, references to it are
- still marked as undefined in the object file. This means that our
- symbol file causes undefined references, because there are
- actually no matching global symbols. Reported by Paul Kendall.
-
-1997-11-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltconfig.in: Don't forget to redirect the COLLECT_NAMES libtool
- script fragment to the generated libtool, rather than to stdout.
-
-1997-11-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * libtool.m4 (LD): Add a more sophisticated test to determine the
- ABI flag on IRIX 6. Suggested by Lars Hecking and Ian Lance
- Taylor.
-
- * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Only export this
- variable if we are running under AIX. Otherwise, we tickle a g++
- bug under IRIX. From Paul Kendall.
-
- * Change bug reporting address to <bug-libtool@gnu.org>.
-
- * ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): OSF/1 3.x also requires a
- wildcard argument to `-expect_unresolved'. From Stephan Kulow.
-
-1997-11-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Use libname_spec.
-
- * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): Somehow, the HP-UX pic_flag (`+Z') was
- dropped between libtool-1.0 and now. Add it back in. Reported by
- Akim Demaille.
- Integrated more patches for OS/2. From Jeff Freedman.
- (libname_spec): New variable for OSes that don't require their
- libraries to look like `libNAME.a'.
-
- * ltmain.in (link): Only use global_symbol_pipe if it has been
- defined. From Stephan Kulow.
-
- * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): Protect C fragment under C++
- compilers. From Stephan Kulow.
-
- * Makefile.am ($(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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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.
-
-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).
-
- * ltconfig.in (AR): Allow AR to be set by the user, and export it
- to ltmain.sh.
-
- * ltmain.sh.in: Remove broken profiled library support.
- 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.

-1997-03-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * demo/main.c: Use it.
-
- * demo/foo.h: Declare it.
-

- 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>
-

-
-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

- 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.
-
-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.
-
-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].
-
-1997-01-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * Release 0.8.
-
-1997-01-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>

- 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.
-
-1997-01-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * libtoolize.in: Handle explicit AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR settings.
- Suggested by Akim Demaille.
-

-
- * demo/Makefile.am (hc-direct): Do better searching for the proper
- name to do a direct link.

- * 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.
-
-1997-01-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Eval $link_static_flag. Reported by Bruno

-
- * 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.
-
-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.
-
-1997-01-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (compile): Recognize valid source file suffixes for
- Fortran and C++.
-
-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

-1996-12-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (link): Delete the `libtool' version type.

-
- * 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 (link): Accept files ending in .a as standard
- object files. Reported by Ulrich Drepper.

- 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.
-
-1996-12-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
-
- * ltmain.sh.in (compile): Support `.S' (preprocessed assembler)
- files. Reported by Anthony Green.

-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
- when sourcing it.

+\r
+ * libltdl/configure.in: look for string.h or else strings.h, and\r
+ also check for ANSI strrchr() function. Fix `undescore before\r
+ symbols' macro to not rely on a.out (cygwin uses a.exe!). Fix\r
+ `underscore for dlsym' to set cache variable properly, not just in\r

+\r
+1998-12-01 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: added -export-symbols support for GNU ld and\r

+ the changes below. I'm not sure whether mingw32 and os2 support\r
+ UNC paths, if they did we wouldn't need the check, we could use\r
+ UNC paths on all three; or if the bug with $LD not being\r
+ shell-meta escaped was fixed, we could use '\\' separators on all\r
+ three. AC_REQUIRE'ed AC_CANONICAL_HOST.\r
+ \r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD): Cannonicalize the absolute path for the\r
+ ld program; The order is funny to provide canonicalization to\r
+ paths with '\\' separators as well as '/'.\r

+\r
+ * AUTHORS: Added myself as a co-maintainer.\r
+\r

+ * ltmain.in: changed all of the eval loops to use an IFS of `~',\r
+ to allow differentiation between the end-of-statement-;\r
+ (now `~' is used) and end-of-substatement-; (still `;'). This\r
+ fixes AIX and win32 at least.\r
+\r
+1998-11-11 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (sunos*, sympat, symxfrm): remove underscore\r
+ prepended by the compiler\r
+\r
+1998-11-10 Toshio Kuratomi <badger@prtr-13.ucsc.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: re-enable deplibs\r
+ * ltmain.in: support deplibs, at least for GNU/Linux/x86\r
+ Updated to current libtool by Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>\r
+\r
+1998-11-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@trick.fig.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Make the relink warning less harsh.\r
+\r
+1998-11-07 William M. Perry <wmperry@aventail.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (aix3, aix4): uniquify symbol names in archive_cmds\r
+\r
+1998-11-07 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: add --falback-echo, to be used if everything else\r
+ fails. The tests now check the behavior of $echo for very large\r
+ strings, because some echo commands would just core dump (e.g.,\r
+ Solaris' printf). If too large strings fail, smaller ones are\r
+ tested.\r
+ (ltecho): arrange that, if the --fallback-echo method is selected,\r
+ echo will be defined in the libtool script so as to re-run itself,\r
+ not ltconfig\r
+ * ltmain.in: add --fallback-echo\r
+ (qecho) ensure that, if --falback-echo is being used, qecho is\r
+ defined with the full pathname of the libtool script\r
+\r
+1998-11-07 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>\r
+\r
+ * mdemo/main.c: removed hardcoded library names; link against -lm\r
+ * tests/mdemo-exec, tests/mdemo-inst: pass the library names\r
+ to the program\r
+\r
+1998-11-07 Marc J. Fraioli <fraioli@dg-rtp.dg.com>\r
+\r
+ * README: Added DG/UX\r
+ * doc/PLATFORMS: ditto\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Michael Tiemann <tiemann@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (irix6): it's a little bit different from irix5\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>\r
+\r
+ * THANKS: Added Thomas Tanner and Gary V. Vaughan\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: updated and fixed the patches below\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>\r
+\r
+ * mdemo/*: added new demo to demonstrate building of dlopenend\r
+ modules\r
+ * tests/Makefile.am, tests/mdemo*: added some tests for mdemo\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Gary V. Vaughan <gvaughan@oranda.demon.co.uk>\r
+\r
+ * demo/configure.in: added AC_EXEEXT macro so that the tests can\r
+ work on cywin32/mingw32 hosts. This requires the current CVS\r
+ autoconf\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Thomas Tanner <tanner@gmx.de>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: New flag -export-symbols; new dlpreopen system\r
+ * demo/dlmain.c: removed dld_preloaded_symbol_count\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: On installation, don't get confused if the same name\r
+ appears more than once in the list of library names.\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Add objext and libext variables. Check for object\r
+ suffix. Check for mingw32* as well as cygwin32*. Use objext when\r
+ testing compiler. Add support for Visual C++ on cygwin32 when not\r
+ using gcc. Add objext, libext, and fix_srcfile_path to generated\r
+ libtool script.\r
+ * ltmain.in: Use .${objext} rather than .o. Use fix_srcfile_path\r
+ if it is set. Check for .obj as well as for .o, and for .lib as\r
+ well as for .a. Use .${libext} rather than .a when creating old\r
+ libraries.\r
+ * libtoolize.in: Change initial /bin/sh to @SHELL@.\r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Add AC_REQUIRE for\r
+ AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, so that autoconf doesn't get mixed up by the\r
+ AC_REQUIRE in AC_CHECK_TOOL.\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Look in the right directory for libtool.c in\r
+ archive_cmds for cygwin32.\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Fix cygwin32 support to avoid using a double\r
+ extension, to delete the def file, to set version_type to windows,\r
+ and to include versuffix in the DLL name.\r
+ * ltmain.in: Add support for a version_type of windows.\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Add cygwin32 support.\r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Call AM_SYS_LIBTOOL_CYGWIN32 on a\r
+ cygwin32 host. Pass DLLTOOL and AS to ltconfig.\r
+ (AM_SYS_LIBTOOL_CYGWIN32): New macro.\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (sco): fix typo\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: On AIX, don't treat GNU ld specially.\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_minus_L): Revert Ian's patch for\r
+ ltconfig.in. Although -L hardcoding is not used with GNU ld, it\r
+ does happen, so hardcode_minus_L must be set to yes.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (compiler_o_lo): check whether we can write directly\r
+ to a .lo\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (compiler_o_lo): if not, write to .o and rename it\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: For sunos4 using GNU ld, set hardcode_minus_L to\r
+ no.\r

+ when using GNU ld.\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>\r
+\r
+ * THANKS: Added Marc J. Fraioli\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Marc J. Fraioli <fraioli@dg-rtp.dg.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (dgux): new supported platforms\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (need_locks): if neither `-c -o' nor hard links are\r
+ available, fallback to not so safe mechanism, by setting\r
+ need_locks to warn\r
+ * ltmain.in (need_locks): when need_locks is set to warn, use the\r
+ lockfile to try to fail in case of incorrect concurrent builds\r
+\r
+ * THANKS: Added Eric Estievenart\r
+\r
+1998-11-04 Eric Estievenart <eric@via.ecp.fr>\r
+\r
+ * doc/libtool.texi (Compile mode): Document that -o is fully\r
+ supported.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (libtool-lock): new ARG_ENABLE; sets (need_locks)\r
+ * ltconfig.in (disable-lock): control need_locks\r
+ (hard_links): check whether hard-links can be used for locking\r
+ * ltmain.in (need_locks): use $output_obj.lock for locking\r
+\r
+1998-11-03 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: correctly create libraries and programs with\r
+ directory components in their names\r
+\r
+1998-11-03 Eric Estievenart <eric@via.ecp.fr>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (output_obj): typo\r
+\r
+1998-11-02 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: For sunos4, add ${libname}.so$versuffix to\r
+ library_names_spec.\r
+ * ltmain.in: For version_type of sunos, set versuffix even if\r
+ -version-info was not used.\r
+\r
+1998-11-02 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (libobj): default value must not contain directory\r
+ components\r
+\r
+1998-11-02 Eric Estievenart <eric@via.ecp.fr>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (compiler): detect if the compiler supports\r
+ -c and -o flags, create a variable compiler_c_o. Also issue\r
+ a big warning if it is not supported\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (compile): enable the -o option as input for libtool.\r
+ The objects are not moved if the compiler supports -o with -c.\r
+ Sources and objects can contain relative directories.\r
+ (link): enable the linking of executables into relative directories\r
+\r
+1998-11-02 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>\r
+\r
+ * AUTHORS: added myself as a co-maintainer\r
+ * THANKS: and removed my name from here\r
+\r
+ * autogen: new script; run it to bootstrap libtool after checking\r
+ it out from CVS\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (CFLAGS): check whether -belf is needed on SCO, as\r
+ suggested by Robert Lipe <robertl@dgii.com>\r
+\r
+1998-10-31 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@trick.fig.org>\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hc-libpath): Use parameters from the libtool\r
+ in the top build directory, since the one in the demo directory is\r
+ not guaranteed to exist.\r
+\r
+1998-10-27 Alexandre Oliva <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am (objdir): there are no longer quotes around\r
+ objdir in the libtool script\r
+\r
+1998-10-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@trick.fig.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (dynamic_linker): Echo the result to fd 6, so that\r
+ --silent works correctly. From William M. Perry.\r
+\r
+1998-09-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@trick.fig.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Fix problems when building only static\r
+ libraries. From Owen Taylor.\r
+\r
+1998-08-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@trick.fig.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (install): When library_names_spec has redundancies,\r
+ avoid deleting the main library when installing symlinks. From\r
+ Jeff Dairiki.\r
+ (link): Get rid of backticks in a here doc comment.\r
+ This causes segfaults on Solaris 2. From Aleksandar Bakic.\r
+ (finish): Don't display messages\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): On HP-UX 9, make sure we don't try\r
+ to move a file to itself. From Jeff Dairiki.\r
+\r
+1998-08-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@trick.fig.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Make changes to accomodate ltmain.c.\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (clibtool): New target for the C version of libtool.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.c: Experimental C version of libtool.\r
+\r
+1998-07-10 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (install): Test against both $SHELL and /bin/sh.\r
+\r
+1998-06-30 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@trick.fig.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Convenience archive support. From Ulrich Drepper.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (postinstall_commands): Change libraries to be\r
+ executable on Solaris in order to prevent ldd from moaning. From\r
+ Julian Gosnell.\r
+ (whole_archive_flag_spec): New variable to shortcut convenience\r
+ archive expansion. From Ulrich Drepper.\r
+\r
+1998-06-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Change globs to accept forward slashes\r
+ in absolute directory names used on DOS-like systems. From Robert\r
+ S. Maier.\r
+\r
+Thu May 28 18:59:08 1998 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Use $SHELL when invoking shell scripts.\r
+\r
+1998-05-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (compile): Don't have `-static' turn off libtool\r
+ libraries, so that people can use it just to guarantee that `.o'\r
+ files exist. Suggested by David Mosberger-Tang.\r
+\r
+1998-05-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Possibly reexec the shell from within the\r
+ wrapper script.\r
+ Allow `-version-info' and `-release' to coexist again. If people\r
+ want to shoot themselves in the foot, I'd better let them do so,\r
+ so that people who are smart enough not to can squeeze out another\r
+ ounce of functionality. From Tim Janik.\r
+ (version_vars): Delete dead variable.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_minus_L): FreeBSD 3.0 doesn't hardcode, at\r
+ last. Reported by Jason Nordwick.\r
+\r
+ * libtoolize.in, ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Change a bunch of `if\r
+ test ...; then : ; else ...' constructs to `if test ! ...; then\r
+ ...', for clarity.\r
+\r
+1998-05-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (LC_ALL, LANG): Save these values and restore them\r
+ during execute mode. From Pavel Kankovsky.\r
+ (mode): Accept strace and truss as programs that throw us into\r
+ execute mode. From Pavel Kankovsky.\r
+\r
+1998-05-07 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Don't use .$versuffix or .$major. Instead, assume\r
+ the variable will include any required prefix.\r
+ * ltmain.in: If no -version-info option was used, produce empty\r
+ version strings rather than 0.0.0. When making library symlinks,\r
+ avoid making a symlink if the name would be the same.\r
+\r
+1998-04-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Support `unsupported' as a hardcode_action.\r
+ Reported by Lars Hecking.\r
+ (lib_linked): Do some sanity checking to make sure that we\r
+ actually do link libtool libraries into the program to prevent the\r
+ above problem from happening again.\r
+\r
+1998-04-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Maybe reexec under $SHELL, if $echo doesn't work.\r
+ Reported by Lars Hecking.\r
+\r
+1998-04-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (maintainer-rekey): New rule to force us to change\r
+ Project-Version after we make a release. This keeps all version\r
+ numbers in sync, rather than branching just before the release.\r
+ (maintainer-release, maintainer-checkin): Use maintainer-rekey.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (finish): Notice when a finish command fails, so that\r
+ we can add it to the list of recommendations.\r
+\r
+1998-04-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Append file descriptor 5 to\r
+ config.log, so that configure doesn't clobber the messages that\r
+ ltconfig put there. From David Taylor.\r
+\r
+1998-04-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): Try using `$CC -shared' when\r
+ configuring for GCC under irix5 and irix6. From Wolfram Gloger.\r
+ (ofile): Add `--output' flag to change the name of the generated\r
+ libtool. Suggested by Wolfram Gloger.\r
+\r
+1998-04-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Remove all hardcoded references to ltmain.in in\r
+ favour of $PACKAGE and $PROGRAM.\r
+ (install): Compute the installation name for programs, in case we\r
+ install a relinked file which has a different name. Reported by\r
+ Pieter Schoenmakers.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (echo): Try using the ksh(1) `print -r' builtin\r
+ command, before reverting to printf(1).\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (libtool): Use $(SHELL) when invoking ltconfig.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (echo): Rewrite the test for a working echo so that\r
+ we win on Solaris by avoiding printf(1), if possible.\r
+\r
+1998-04-13 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_NM): Don't override NM in the environment.\r
+\r
+1998-04-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: New `--config' flag to print out all configured\r
+ variables.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4: Pass ltconfig the undocumented --no-reexec flag,\r
+ since we call it explicitly using CONFIG_SHELL.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Restart the script under a different shell if\r
+ CONFIG_SHELL is not /bin/sh. This way, people can use Bash if\r
+ they don't have a working echo program.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in, ltconfig.in: Use $SHELL instead of /bin/sh when\r
+ generating executable scripts.\r
+\r
+ * libtoolize.in, ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Implement the `--debug'\r
+ flag to begin shell tracing.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): Don't use `gcc -shared', even if we\r
+ have GNU ld. Reported by Robert S. Maier.\r
+\r
+1998-04-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): Create more than just a null C file, so\r
+ that the SunPRO 4.2 cc doesn't complain. From Bob Friesenhahn.\r
+ (gnu_ld_acts_native): Delete this variable. There is just too\r
+ much version skew to try to pretend GNU ld is the same as the\r
+ system ld. Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.\r
+ (hardcode_action): Don't bother relinking or aborting on systems\r
+ that are too dynamic to have a consistent hardcode method.\r
+ Reported by Doug Winterburn.\r
+\r
+1998-03-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * doc/libtool.texi: A little proofreading. From Albert\r
+ Chin-A-Young.\r
+\r
+1998-03-23 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Treat HP-UX 11 just like HP-UX 10. From Jeff Law.\r
+\r
+1998-03-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (reload_flag): Correct a tiny bug where `--silent'\r
+ would still print out the reload flag. From Stephan Kulow.\r
+\r
+1998-03-20 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4: Use changequote to avoid problems with square\r
+ bracket patterns.\r
+\r
+1998-03-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * Release 1.2.\r
+\r
+1998-03-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Rearrange some of the echos to make them more\r
+ consistent.\r
+\r
+1998-03-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Break up an echo command that causes Solaris printf\r
+ to dump core. Apparently the Solaris people hardcoded a 2110-byte\r
+ buffer into their printf(1). Feh. From John Judge.\r
+\r
+1998-03-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Change the test for the PIC compiler flag so that\r
+ we assume it doesn't work if there are any warning messages. This\r
+ fixes a bug using old GCC's on HP-UX. Reported by Akim Demaille.\r
+\r
+1998-03-10 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Remove bogus command to create\r
+ a file ltconfig in the build directory.\r
+\r
+1998-03-09 Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Avoid unnecessary use of command substitution,\r
+ replacing foo=`eval \\$echo \"$mumble\"` by eval foo=\"$mumble\".\r
+\r
+ (link): Use ${1+"$@"} in wrapper scripts in order to pass\r
+ arguments safely to a program.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Use -fpic instead of -fPIC if $host_cpu matches\r
+ m68*.\r
+\r
+1998-03-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * Release 1.1.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: <sigh> I like `here documents' a lot, but apparently\r
+ they are so badly handled by old and buggy /bin/sh's, that\r
+ replacing `cat <<EOF ... EOF' by `$echo "..."' improves libtool's\r
+ speed by a factor of 5. So, I've eliminated here docs from the\r
+ all-important ltmain.in. From Tom Lane.\r
+\r
+1998-03-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Copy the contents of ltmain.sh into the generated\r
+ libtool. This should more than halve the execution times on old\r
+ or buggy /bin/sh systems, such as HP-UX 9 and SunOS 4.1.4. From\r
+ Tom Lane.\r
+\r
+1998-03-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): Add support for\r
+ the `default' package, so that people can control unnamed\r
+ packages.\r
+ (LD): Only add an ABI flag under IRIX 6.x, since IRIX 5.x doesn't\r
+ support them. From Alexandre Oliva.\r
+\r
+1998-03-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Port to UnixWare 2.x. From Christopher Olsen.\r
+\r
+1998-02-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (compile): For consistency, honour the `-static' flag\r
+ during compilation.\r
+\r
+1998-02-23 Brendan Kehoe <brendan@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): For\r
+ --enable-shared, heed the value of $PACKAGE from AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE\r
+ if given as the argument for the library to be built shared.\r
+\r
+1998-02-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Fix up a typo confusion between\r
+ $ac_dir and $dir. Reported by Akim Demaille.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Don't allow both `-version-info' and\r
+ `-release'. Reported by Danny Backx.\r
+\r
+1998-02-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (noinst_SCRIPTS): Remove lineno from distribution.\r
+\r
+ * lineno: Remove from distribution, as it is no longer needed.\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig.in, $(srcdir)/ltmain.sh):\r
+ Rewrite these rules not to use config.status or lineno. This\r
+ makes things simpler, and reduces dependencies, so that the\r
+ scripts are rebuilt and installed in srcdir only when necessary.\r
+ Reported by Stephan Kulow.\r
+\r
+1998-02-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4, ltmain.in, ltconfig.in: Correctly identify absolute\r
+ directory names on MS-DOS. Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in, libtool.m4: Change a bunch of `sed N!d'\r
+ commands to `sed Nq', for efficiency.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Only egrep the first few lines of files in order to\r
+ determine if they were libtool-generated. This prevents egrep(1)\r
+ from taking forever to look at a 10MB binary on Solaris. From\r
+ Stephan Kulow.\r
+\r
+1998-02-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (no_undefined_flag): Add a flag to declare under\r
+ Solaris that the library should not have any undefined\r
+ references. Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (mkdir): Fix one more mkdir race. From H.J. Lu.\r
+\r
+1998-02-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (striplib, old_striplib): Ditto.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (profile_flag_pattern): Get rid of dead code.\r
+\r
+1998-02-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_ENABLE_SHARED, AM_ENABLE_STATIC): New macros to\r
+ modify the `--enable-shared' and `--enable-static' defaults in the\r
+ configure script. This works a lot better than the old\r
+ `enable_shared' and `enable_static' variables did. Reported by\r
+ Bob Friesenhahn.\r
+\r
+1998-02-07 Samuel Tardieu <sam@inf.enst.fr>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Recognize .ada, .ads and .adb as known suffixes (they\r
+ are used by GNAT, the GNU Ada compiler).\r
+\r
+1998-02-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Turn on IRIX shared libraries again!\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Use file(1) to discover which ABI we're using\r
+ on IRIX, and propagate the correct linker flag. From Jim Wilson.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (Xsed): `arg=-n; echo "$arg" | sed ...'\r
+ gives problems, because the `-n' is interpreted as an option to\r
+ echo(1). So, use `echo "X$arg" | sed -e 's/^X//' ...' everywhere,\r
+ via the $Xsed convenience variable. Suggested by H.J. Lu.\r
+\r
+1998-02-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Turn off IRIX shared library support until 32-bit\r
+ and 64-bit ABI differences can be resolved.\r
+\r
+1998-01-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Reverse yesterday's change because `-old_ld'\r
+ isn't accepted by GCC.\r
+\r
+1998-01-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (soname_spec): Add in user-specified release numbers\r
+ for every host system that supports an soname that differs from\r
+ the linkname.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Add `-old_ld' to the list of flags that need to\r
+ be passed through on SGI. Reported by Chris Lee.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (release): Prepend a hyphen to the release number, and\r
+ fix a typo because `-version-info' takes only 3 args. From\r
+ H.J. Lu.\r
+\r
+1998-01-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (library_names_spec): On Linux, use the\r
+ user-specified release.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Allow the user to specify a release number for\r
+ the library using the `-release' flag. Suggested by H.J. Lu and\r
+ Ian Lance Taylor.\r
+\r
+1998-01-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (old_postuninstall_cmds): Reorder so that chmod\r
+ happens after ranlib. From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (mode): Added `gcc*' and `*-gcc*' to the patterns that\r
+ recognize compilers. From Pieter Schoenmakers.\r
+ (link): Recognize `.a' files again. Suggested by Pieter\r
+ Schoenmakers.\r
+\r
+1998-01-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (compile): Recognize `.asm' extension, for use with\r
+ the nasm assembler. From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.\r
+\r
+1998-01-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (runpath_var): Use instead of\r
+ `hardcode_runpath_var'.\r
+\r
+1998-01-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (finish): Add a better --finish message. Suggested by\r
+ Kenneth Albanowski.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in: Fix a few typos.\r
+\r
+1998-01-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Quote the definition of $echo in the wrapper\r
+ script.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag_spec): Use `--export-dynamic'\r
+ instead of `-export-dynamic', which is not accepted by all GNU\r
+ ld's. From Eiichi Takamori.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (install): Don't print silly `library stripping'\r
+ warnings. Reported by François Pinard.\r
+\r
+1997-12-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Don't forget to quote the CDPATH substitution. From\r
+ Tor Lillqvist.\r
+\r
+1997-12-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@profitpress.com>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (CDPATH): Unset this environment variable\r
+ so that HP-UX shells, at least, don't print out the directory name\r
+ after a `cd' command. From Tor Lillqvist.\r
+\r
+1997-12-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hardcode): Change a bunch of references to\r
+ `$(LIBS)' to `-lm', since we no longer put -lm in LIBS.\r
+\r
+ * demo/configure.in: Delete the test for libm, since it is\r
+ standard on every system.\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am (libhello_la_LDFLAGS): Change to include -lm,\r
+ in accordance with new inter-library dependency code.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (dependency_libs): Added to help people link programs\r
+ without having to explicitly specify inter-library dependencies.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Oops... I forgot to apply the AIX 3\r
+ restriction to the generated libtool script. Reported by Stefan\r
+ Westerfeld.\r
+\r
+1997-12-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (thisdir): Quote $echo in the generated libtool\r
+ script for HP-UX. From Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Recognize the `.s' suffix. From Markus\r
+ F.X.J. Oberhumer.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (link_static_flag): Don't quote ${wl} on HP-UX\r
+ because link_static_flag is never evaled. From Eric Backus.\r
+\r
+1997-12-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am (helldl_DEPENDENCIES): Add `libhello.la' to our\r
+ dependencies so that parallel builds work correctly. From Jim\r
+ Meyering.\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig, $(srcdir)/ltmain.sh): Rewrite\r
+ these rules so that they are parallelizable. Reported by Jim\r
+ Meyering.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (ltecho): We need special handling to quote the\r
+ `echo' variable itself. From Alexandre Oliva.\r
+\r
+1997-11-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Enable this workaround for a broken\r
+ collect2 only on AIX 3. This avoids problems on other AIX\r
+ versions. Reported by Stefan Westerfeld.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in, ltconfig.in (finish_eval): Variable like finish_cmds,\r
+ except it is a single command which is evaled, and not shown.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Port to AmigaOS. From Joop van de Wege.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (echo): Delete preamble to check for a working echo,\r
+ since we just use the one included in the generated libtool.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (echo): Include this definition in the generated\r
+ libtool script.\r
+\r
+1997-11-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, libtool.m4 (NM): Add /usr/ccs/bin to the PATH\r
+ before checking. From Kaveh R. Ghazi.\r
+ (NM): Delete an extraneous egrep from ltconfig.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (finish_cmds): Change back to using `ldconfig -n'.\r
+ This makes Linux behave like other systems, which is more in line\r
+ with what libtool needs.\r
+\r
+1997-11-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Change a whole bunch of `progname' variables to\r
+ `modename'. This is for clarity, and to fix a tiny typo in finish\r
+ mode.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.spec (Name, Version): Ditto.\r
+\r
+ * configure.in (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Use PRCS to automatically generate\r
+ the proper package name and version number.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (gnu_ld_acts_native): Treat GNU ld like the native\r
+ linker on SunOS 4.x. Suggested by Alexandre Oliva.\r
+ (deplibs): Change the defaults all over, since most systems cannot\r
+ handle inter-library dependencies.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Only look at the first line of the\r
+ output from NM when determining whether it supports a command line\r
+ option. This prevents false positives on OSes which ignore\r
+ invalid flags, like HP-UX, which prints `nm: unknown option "B"\r
+ ignored'. Reported by Kaveh R. Ghazi.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (finish_cmds): On Linux, update ld.so.cache by\r
+ removing the `-n' flag from ldconfig. Suggested by Kenneth\r
+ Albanowski.\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (maintainer-checkin, maintainer-release): New\r
+ commands to reap the full benefit of using PRCS to maintain\r
+ libtool version numbers.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (global_symbol_pipe): Explicitly cast all\r
+ addresses to __ptr_t. This fixes a bug due to a strict IRIX\r
+ compiler. Suggested by Kaveh R. Ghazi.\r
+\r
+1997-11-23 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (echo): For aesthetics, avoid using `$echo' when\r
+ `echo' will do *exactly* the same thing. This prevents ugly\r
+ `printf %s\n timestamp > some.lo' commands from appearing in the\r
+ libtool output.\r
+ (link): Delete the `-allow-undefined' flag because it is now the\r
+ default. Make `-no-undefined' in order for people to declare that\r
+ a library is entirely self-contained. This prevents maintainers\r
+ from accidentally creating shared libraries that won't work on\r
+ AIX. Reported by Stefan Westerfeld and Danny Backx.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (echo): Use an echo variable, just as in ltmain.in,\r
+ because we need it for quoting substitutions. For most of the\r
+ script, though, use the default echo, just like Autoconf does.\r
+ Without this patch, character \001 ends up in global_symbol_pipe.\r
+ Reported by Lars Hecking and Jürgen Fluk.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (echo): Set default to `echo=echo'. Ooops. That's\r
+ what you get for testing obscure code paths and forgetting to\r
+ revert to the original version. Reported by Danny Backx.\r
+\r
+1997-11-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): Set to `-R' for FreeBSD\r
+ 2.2. From Sean Kelly.\r
+ (postuninstall_cmds, old_postuninstall_cmds): Commands to run\r
+ after uninstall mode deletes the libraries. Suggested by Joop van\r
+ de Wege.\r
+ (export_dynamic_flag_spec): On HP-UX, add the `${wl}-E'\r
+ export_dynamic_flag_spec. Reported by Matthias Hoelzer.\r
+\r
+1997-11-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (sed_quote_subst): Oops. We forgot to\r
+ quote backticks. Reported by Joop van de Wege.\r
+\r
+1997-11-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (symcode): On IRIX, don't extract undefined\r
+ symbols. When a function is inlined by G++, references to it are\r
+ still marked as undefined in the object file. This means that our\r
+ symbol file causes undefined references, because there are\r
+ actually no matching global symbols. Reported by Paul Kendall.\r
+\r
+1997-11-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Don't forget to redirect the COLLECT_NAMES libtool\r
+ script fragment to the generated libtool, rather than to stdout.\r
+\r
+1997-11-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Add a more sophisticated test to determine the\r
+ ABI flag on IRIX 6. Suggested by Lars Hecking and Ian Lance\r
+ Taylor.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (COLLECT_NAMES): Only export this\r
+ variable if we are running under AIX. Otherwise, we tickle a g++\r
+ bug under IRIX. From Paul Kendall.\r
+\r
+ * Change bug reporting address to <bug-libtool@gnu.org>.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): OSF/1 3.x also requires a\r
+ wildcard argument to `-expect_unresolved'. From Stephan Kulow.\r
+\r
+1997-11-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Use libname_spec.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): Somehow, the HP-UX pic_flag (`+Z') was\r
+ dropped between libtool-1.0 and now. Add it back in. Reported by\r
+ Akim Demaille.\r
+ Integrated more patches for OS/2. From Jeff Freedman.\r
+ (libname_spec): New variable for OSes that don't require their\r
+ libraries to look like `libNAME.a'.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Only use global_symbol_pipe if it has been\r
+ defined. From Stephan Kulow.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): Protect C fragment under C++\r
+ compilers. From Stephan Kulow.\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/acinclude.m4,\r
+ $(srcdir)/demo/acinclude.m4): Change rules to use LN_S so that\r
+ they can be run on any system.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (archive_cmds): For NetBSD, don't include deplibs.\r
+ From Dieter Baron.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (mkdir): Check that the directory doesn't exist before\r
+ we exit with error, so that we don't get races during parallel\r
+ builds. From H.J. Lu.\r
+ (fbsd_hideous_sh_bug): Apparently, some FreeBSD /bin/sh's have a\r
+ bug that will empty base_compile unless we do this dummy\r
+ assignment. From Marc van Kempen.\r
+\r
+1997-10-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (libtool_shared, libtool_static): Fixed logic error\r
+ to reenable override of libtool's defaults by setting\r
+ enable_shared or enable_static in configure.in. Reported by Tom\r
+ Tromey and Stephan Kulow.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Add explicit support for compiler options that\r
+ begin with `+'. Reported by Aubert Pierre.\r
+\r
+1997-10-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Silly me. Change a bunch of occurances of "* $dir *"\r
+ into *" $dir "*.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): PIC is the default for AIX. From Mark\r
+ Kettenis. It is also the default for OSF/1.\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am (objdir): Quote double-quotes. From Mark\r
+ Kettenis.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): This variable is not\r
+ double-evaled, so it should not be double quoted. From Mark\r
+ Kettenis.\r
+\r
+1997-10-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (LD): Same as below.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Set LD if we discover an absolute path to GNU\r
+ ld. This prevents breakage when `$CC -print-prog-name=ld' returns\r
+ an absolute directory name. Reported by Ulrich Drepper.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Port to OS/2 using EMX. From Jeff Freedman.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Use old_archive_from_new_cmds.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (old_archive_from_new_cmds): New variable to\r
+ support DLL libraries.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Only `eval' export_dynamic_flag_spec if it is\r
+ not empty. Reported by Stephan Kulow.\r
+\r
+1997-10-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (objdir): Use the .libs directory on all systems for\r
+ which that name is valid, and _libs on the others (like MS-DOS).\r
+ Suggested by Juergen Erhard.\r
+\r
+1997-10-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.org>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Added a bit more inter-language support to the\r
+ symbol file generation process.\r
+ Instead of complaining about unrecognized argument suffices, pass\r
+ them to the linker. This prevents libtool from barfing on\r
+ mandatory arguments to linker flags. Reported by Michael\r
+ Tiemann.\r
+\r
+1997-10-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Change the wrapper script to follow symlinks\r
+ in order to find thisdir. This should put the final nail in the\r
+ coffin for problems with wrapper scripts. From Ian Lance Taylor.\r
+\r
+1997-10-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Change a few `$echo' commands into `$show' to make\r
+ --silent mode behave as advertised.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): On OSF/1 4.x, use\r
+ `-expect_unresolved \*'. From Christian Mondrup.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (install): Change install mode to allow a specified\r
+ /bin/sh argument at the beginning of the install_prog. Also,\r
+ specify the shell to run when invoking libtool recursively for\r
+ finish mode. From Chris Provenzano.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (LIBTOOL): Change definition to include $(SHELL).\r
+ From Chris Provenzano.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Port to UTS 4.x. From Alistair Crooks.\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hc-libflag): Add rules to make this binary for\r
+ hardcode.test.\r
+\r
+1997-09-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (LD): As with libtool.m4, don't override LD.\r
+ Do a whole bunch of ac_t quoting.\r
+\r
+1997-09-24 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD): Don't override LD in the environment.\r
+\r
+1997-09-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (NM): Arguments to the for loop must be\r
+ whitespace separated. This fixes a bug under FreeBSD's /bin/sh.\r
+ From George Scott.\r
+\r
+1997-09-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (deplibs): When building shared libraries, always add\r
+ -lc to deplibs. Reported by Andreas Jellinghaus.\r
+\r
+1997-09-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (COLLECT_NAMES): If the COLLECT_NAMES\r
+ environment variable has not been set, set it to empty. This\r
+ apparently fixes the AIX bug with GCC's collect2. Reported by\r
+ Mark Kettenis.\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am, ltmain.in, tests/hardcode.test (objdir):\r
+ Changed objdir variable .libs to _libs. This is another MS-DOS\r
+ portability fix. Suggested by Robert Hoehne.\r
+\r
+1997-09-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.in (hardcode_minusL): Fix typo by renaming\r
+ hardcode_minusL to hardcode_minus_L. Also add FreeBSD\r
+ hardcode_libdir_flag_spec. From Paul Traina.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in (link): Honour multiple `-rpath' flags when linking\r
+ programs. Suggested by Bengt Martensson.\r
+ Quote appearances of $echo in the wrapper script. From Alexandre\r
+ Oliva.\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am, configure.in, tests/tlibtool: Use ltmain.in instead\r
+ of ltmain.sh.in.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.in: Rename ltmain.sh.in to ltmain.in. This fixes a\r
+ portability problem (on MS-DOS, of all places!). From Robert\r
+ Hoehne.\r
+\r
+1997-09-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Do not transform libtool objects to regular\r
+ objects if we did not build old libs. Reported by Tomas Hiller.\r
+\r
+1997-09-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hell_debug_LDFLAGS): Change hell.static to\r
+ hell.debug in order to reflect the new static linking semantics.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add new `-all-static' flag to prevent all\r
+ dynamic linking. The old `-static' flag just prevents dynamic\r
+ linking against libtool libraries. Suggested by Bengt\r
+ Martensson.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (with_gnu_ld): Add a test to make sure that we are\r
+ actually using GNU ld. This fixes an inconsistency when running\r
+ ltconfig without using libtool.m4. Reported by Ulrich Drepper.\r
+ (global_symbol_pipe): Delete symbols that are not valid C\r
+ identifiers. Reported by Johan Danielsson and Bengt Martensson.\r
+\r
+1997-09-04 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (echo): Quote all the uses of `echo' in all eval\r
+ statements. Reported by Bengt Martensson and Alexandre Oliva.\r
+ (echo): Need to surround test args with double quotes, or the echo\r
+ test fails on Digital Unix 4.0. From Todd Kover.\r
+\r
+1997-08-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (echo): Change test to one that uses printf.\r
+ This works on AIX, which has the same problems that Solaris does,\r
+ but no working echo program.\r
+\r
+1997-08-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Make sure that compile_command and\r
+ finalize_command are always evaled. Quote any unknown linker\r
+ flags we need to pass through.\r
+ (compile): Use quoting for flags we pass.\r
+ (echo): I hate Sun! The /usr/bin/echo on Solaris handles\r
+ backslash sequences, which makes it impossible to do backslash\r
+ quoting using echo and sed. So, we search for an echo that obeys\r
+ the `echo '\t'` = '\t' equality. Then we use `$echo' everywhere\r
+ in ltmain.sh.\r
+ Put tabs back into the ${IFS= } sequences. Emacs untabify is\r
+ libtool bane.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Quote all variable values that may contain\r
+ metacharacters creating the libtool script. This provides\r
+ complete protection, so that even single-quotes may appear inside\r
+ a libtool variable value.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Quote finalize_command before putting it in\r
+ the wrapper script.\r
+\r
+1997-08-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (sed_quote_subst): Change the quoting procedure\r
+ again. I think that the new one is robust for *all* characters,\r
+ including whitespace and metacharacters.\r
+\r
+1997-08-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Change quoting procedure because some shells\r
+ cannot handle `]' in scan sets. From Ian Dall.\r
+\r
+1997-08-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (execute): Added -dlopen flag handling. Suggested\r
+ by Alexandre Oliva.\r
+\r
+1997-08-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Change executable wrapper to fix up value\r
+ of thisdir, as well as progdir, if the $0 path doesn't work. This\r
+ guarantees that shlibpath_var is set correctly. Add support for\r
+ execute mode.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (execute): New mode to automatically set\r
+ shlibpath_var, which allows easy debugging of uninstalled\r
+ executables and libraries. Suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.\r
+\r
+1997-08-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/ltconfig): Use lineno.\r
+\r
+ * configure.in: Add AM_PROG_AWK for lineno.\r
+\r
+ * lineno: New program to automatically put line numbers in\r
+ ltconfig.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in (AM_PROG_LD): Yet Another Rewrite, which\r
+ incorporates the results of `gcc -print-program-name=ld'.\r
+ Suggested by Alexandre Oliva.\r
+\r
+1997-08-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Accept `--quiet' and `--silent' flags to turn off\r
+ command echoing. From Juergen A. Erhard.\r
+\r
+ (compile): Recognize the Objective C `.m' extension. From Juergen\r
+ A. Erhard.\r
+\r
+ (compile): Suppress error output from the second compilation (if\r
+ any) so that we don't get those frustrating duplicate error\r
+ messages.\r
+\r
+1997-08-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Added messages to config.log to describe what sort\r
+ of test we are running.\r
+ (pic_flag): Added a sanity check for pic_flag. This should fix\r
+ bugs reported using the cc bundled with HP-UX 10. Suggested by\r
+ Bruno Haible and Akim Demaille.\r
+\r
+1997-08-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add -dlopen and -dlpreopen support for\r
+ libtool objects. This means that dlopened modules no longer need\r
+ to be shared libraries.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): GCC on IRIX 6 always builds PIC.\r
+ Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Always add `-n32' to the linker if we are using\r
+ GCC on IRIX 6. Reported by Ian Lance Taylor.\r
+\r
+1997-07-30 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Explicitly check enable_shared and\r
+ enable_static rather than just enableval. This allows\r
+ configure.in scripts to set their own defaults. Suggested by\r
+ Tommy Reilly.\r
+\r
+1997-07-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Add NLS environment variable handling copied from\r
+ ltconfig.in. Reported by Akim Demaille.\r
+ (link): If allow_undefined_flag is not supported, then turn on old\r
+ libraries. Reported by Akim Demaille.\r
+\r
+ * demo/dlmain.c (main): Use dld_preloaded_symbol_count to display\r
+ a message about the sortedness of the symbol table.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (nlist): Use an nlist convenience variable, so that\r
+ code can be shared directly with ltmain.sh.in.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (dld_preloaded_symbol_count): Count up\r
+ the number of symbols in the dld_preloaded_symbols. Set to `-1'\r
+ if the list wasn't both sorted and counted. This allows\r
+ applications to do a quick binary search, if they are so inclined.\r
+\r
+1997-07-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Remove code for `-version-file', since it\r
+ has been long-deprecated.\r
+\r
+ Disable static linking if hardcode_direct is unsupported and there\r
+ is no working link_static_flag. This provides correct behaviour\r
+ for all cases on AIX 3, regardless of whether collect2 is broken\r
+ or not. Reported by Mark Kettenis.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Fix typo in test polarity. From Mark Kettenis.\r
+\r
+1997-07-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_direct): Set to `unsupported' if aix3 uses\r
+ a broken collect2. Adapted out of test results from Mark\r
+ Kettenis.\r
+ (link_static_flag): Make sure the link_static_flag actually works\r
+ with a trivial binary.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag_spec): Renamed\r
+ from export_dynamic_flag because we eval it in ltmain.sh.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link_static): Don't eval link_static_flag.\r
+\r
+ * demo/dlmain.c (main): Change function prototype to be KNR\r
+ compatible. From Kaveh R. Ghazi.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Use no_builtin_flag. This works around\r
+ conflicting definitions of builtin functions with at least GCC.\r
+ Reported by Kazuhiro Sasayama.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (no_builtin_flag): New flag to turn off builtin\r
+ functions when compiling an object file.\r
+ (pipe_works): Use it.\r
+\r
+1997-07-23 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (pic_flag): According to the libg++ 2.7.2 configure\r
+ script, DEC alpha CPUs are PIC-only, as well. Reported by Kevin\r
+ Jacobs.\r
+\r
+1997-07-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in: Replace all occurances of "sed 'X;\r
+ Y'" with "sed -e 'X' -e 'Y'".\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Finish full integration for `-dlopen' and\r
+ `-dlpreopen'.\r
+\r
+ Fix two silly typos where I used a compile_command in place of a\r
+ finalize_command, and vice versa.\r
+\r
+ Change the wrapper script to check a hardcoded path only if the\r
+ argv[0] method fails. This is a compromise for the previous two\r
+ patches, and should solve the majority of problems with wrapper\r
+ scripts. From Kenneth Albanowski.\r
+\r
+ (link): Change a reference to hardcode_libdir_colon_separated to\r
+ use the new hardcode_libdir_separator variable.\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am (helldl_LDFLAGS): Add `-export-dynamic' and\r
+ `-dlpreopen' for building helldl.\r
+\r
+ * demo/dlmain.c (main): Succeed, even if none of the libhello\r
+ symbols have been preloaded.\r
+\r
+1997-07-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (global_symbol_pipe): Add `U' to the accepted global\r
+ symbol types. This means that we will get duplicate symbols, but\r
+ we'll also be sure to get all global symbols used by the program.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (pipe_works), ltmain.sh.in (link): Sort and make\r
+ symbol output unique.\r
+\r
+1997-07-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (pipe_works): Check to make sure our guessed\r
+ global_symbol_pipe actually works.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Revert change from Kenneth Albanowski. The\r
+ wrapper scripts are more reliable when they just use the argv[0]\r
+ value. Generally, when the argv[0] method doesn't work, the user\r
+ is trying to do something weird with an uninstalled binary, and\r
+ should try a different approach.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (CC): Always use `$CC' instead of\r
+ `$cc'. This fixes a FreeBSD bug. Reported by Chuck Robey, and\r
+ others.\r
+\r
+1997-07-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): In wrapper scripts, hardcode the current\r
+ directory to prevent phony argv[0] values from screwing up our\r
+ program. From Kenneth Albanowski.\r
+\r
+1997-07-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Add demo/dlmain.c to the\r
+ distribution.\r
+\r
+1997-07-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am: Add helldl, made from dlmain.c, to demostrate\r
+ `-dlopen' usage.\r
+\r
+ * demo/dlmain.c: New file to demonstrate preloaded modules.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add `-dlopen' flag to preload dynamic\r
+ modules, even on static platforms. Use `$NM' and\r
+ `$global_symbol_cmd' to extract symbols from required files.\r
+ (dlname): Delete dlname mode entirely. It is rendered obsolete\r
+ because the `.la' file format is now a public interface.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (NM): New variable for BSD-compatible nm program.\r
+ (global_symbol_cmd): Pipeline to extract global symbols from the\r
+ nm output.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: The .la file header should depend on `ltmain.sh',\r
+ not `$PROGRAM'.\r
+ (link): Make sure $export_dynamic_flag is eval'ed before it is\r
+ used.\r
+\r
+1997-07-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.spec: New Red Hat Package Manager specification file in\r
+ order to help people prepare distributions of libtool for Linux.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Eliminate two accidental uses of the NONE magic\r
+ value. These were breaking libtool's behaviour when no mode is\r
+ specified.\r
+\r
+1997-07-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Release 1.0.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: On SunOS, append /usr/etc to the PATH before\r
+ running ldconfig; on *BSD, append /sbin. This was done in line\r
+ with the Linux change suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hardcode_tests): Aesthetic change to\r
+ alphabetize order of compiling the hardcode tests.\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Delete README-automake.\r
+\r
+ * README-automake: Remove from distribution.\r
+\r
+1997-07-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): In the executable wrapper, strip trailing\r
+ colons from the shlibpath_var because some ld.so's, notably\r
+ OpenBSD 2.0's (!), don't parse colon-terminated values correctly.\r
+ From Tim Pierce.\r
+\r
+1997-07-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in: Eliminate uses of the NONE magic\r
+ variable value. Use an empty variable instead.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (with_gcc, with_gnu_ld): Do the tests for the C\r
+ compiler and linker if the variables are unset, or if they are not\r
+ GNU C and ld.\r
+ (RANLIB): Eliminate redundant `if' statement.\r
+\r
+ * configure.in: Use AM_PROG_LD.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PROG_LD_GNU): New macro to determine if LD is GNU\r
+ ld.\r
+ (AM_PROG_LD): Rename AM_PATH_PROG_LD to AM_PROG_LD. Parameterize\r
+ so that the user can specify `--with-gnu-ld' or `--without-gnu-ld'\r
+ to indicate his preference.\r
+ (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Use it.\r
+\r
+1997-06-30 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Append /sbin to the path before running ldconfig on\r
+ Linux. This helps superusers who haven't set their PATH\r
+ correctly. Suggested by Kenneth Albanowski.\r
+\r
+1997-06-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Change all the `eval "$run ..."' sequences to\r
+ `$run "eval ..."'.\r
+\r
+ Change all `$ln_s ...' sequences to use `(cd /dir && $LN_S ...)'.\r
+ This is the sequence recommended by the Autoconf manual, and\r
+ should avoid any problems on older machines. Eliminate all uses\r
+ of `cp -p'. Reported by Akim Demaille.\r
+\r
+ (install): Use `test $# -gt 0' instead of `test -n "$1"'.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (LN_S): Add test to see if `ln -s' works.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4: Increment serial number, and require AC_PROG_LN_S.\r
+\r
+1997-06-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Add missing `test' statement. Reported by\r
+ Akim Demaille.\r
+\r
+1997-06-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): Consistently use ac_cv_path_ld instead of\r
+ am_cv_path_ld. From Tim Pierce.\r
+\r
+1997-06-20 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Redo two robustness fixes. Alexandre had the\r
+ correct approach, but I botched them.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (dynamic_linker): Disable shared libraries on\r
+ MkLinux unless GNU libc is in use. Reported by Akim Demaille.\r
+\r
+1997-06-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (install): Add a missing `test' command. Reported\r
+ by Joel Weber.\r
+ Miscellaneous fixes to improve robustness. From Alexandre Oliva.\r
+\r
+1997-06-14 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Create invalid libtool objects when partial\r
+ linking if we don't have PIC. From Jeff Dairiki.\r
+ (install): Fix bug if libtool object is installed to a file name\r
+ without directory components. From Jeff Dairiki.\r
+\r
+1997-06-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (demo/configure): Fix up rules to run autoconf.\r
+ (aclocal.m4): Now we depend on our own libtool.m4.\r
+\r
+ * configure.in (AM_PATH_PROG_LD): Use it.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (AM_PATH_PROG_LD): New macro to find the linker used\r
+ by the C compiler.\r
+ (AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Use it.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (install, uninstall): Support installing and\r
+ uninstalling `.lo' files. From Jeff Dairiki.\r
+\r
+1997-06-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): Only move if $(srcdir) is not\r
+ the current directory. Don't regenerate every time the package is\r
+ reconfigured. Reported by Tom Tromey.\r
+ (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Added ltconfig, ltmain.sh, so that\r
+ $(srcdir) is not messed with during a regular clean.\r
+\r
+1997-06-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (ltconfig, ltmain.sh): Be sure to move these files\r
+ into $(srcdir) once they are created.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Disable building static libraries.\r
+ People should use their favourite AR and RANLIB commands.\r
+ Disable building old-style objects if `--disable-static' is\r
+ given. Suggested by Tom Lees and Stephan Kulow.\r
+\r
+1997-06-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (host_cpu, host_vendor, host_os): Patch up\r
+ definitions, to allow for the fact that the host_os may contain\r
+ hyphens (as in linux-gnu). From Scott Goehring.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Move the `dlname' setting closer to the top\r
+ of the file. Suggested by David Mosberger-Tang.\r
+ Symlink the libtool archive into the `.libs' directory so that it\r
+ can be found by programs that want to find a library's dlname by\r
+ searching LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Reported by David Mosberger-Tang.\r
+\r
+1997-06-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Tell people to report bugs to the new libtool mailing list,\r
+ <bug-libtool@gnu.ai.mit.edu>.\r
+\r
+1997-06-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (allow_undefined_flag): New variable that implements\r
+ `-allow-undefined'.\r
+ (archive_cmds): Enable C++ constructors for FreeBSD 2.2. From\r
+ David Nugent.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Accept new `-allow-undefined' flag when\r
+ building libtool libraries. This tells libtool to allow\r
+ unresolved symbols to exist in shared libraries. Basically, this\r
+ turns off shared libraries on AIX. Suggested by Ian Lance Taylor.\r
+\r
+1997-05-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4 (LD): On at least IRIX, many different flags need to\r
+ be propagated to the linker if they are part of the compiler\r
+ command line. Reported by Anthony Green.\r
+\r
+1997-05-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to FreeBSD 3. From David Nugent.\r
+\r
+1997-04-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Remove all traces of `-whole-archive',\r
+ `-no-whole-archive', and libtool convenience libraries. They were\r
+ more trouble than they're worth. If these are ever reimplemented,\r
+ they need more careful attention to make portable.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4, ltconfig.in: Added a `--disable-static' flag to turn\r
+ off static library creation. From Tom Lees (who finally convinced\r
+ me that it was the Right Thing to do).\r
+\r
+1997-04-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_runpath_var, runpath_var): Use them, if\r
+ the linker has no -rpath flag.\r
+ Quote the values we use to set runpath_var and shlibpath_var.\r
+ (link): Use libobjlibs for libtool convenience libraries.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_runpath_var, runpath_var): Add new\r
+ variables to describe linkers that honour `LD_RUN_PATH'.\r
+ (host_cpu, host_os): Use these more specific variables, rather\r
+ than the full canonical host system name.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (dlname): Distinguish between missing\r
+ `-export-dynamic' and when the library is only statically linked.\r
+\r
+1997-04-21 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to OpenBSD by making it an alias for\r
+ NetBSD. From Tim Pierce.\r
+\r
+1997-04-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Temporary measures to check for a broken collect2\r
+ program. Right now, we just see if we're using GCC on AIX 3.\r
+\r
+1997-04-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (mode): Use `egrep -e' when inferring the operation\r
+ mode.\r
+\r
+1997-04-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (linker): Some GNU ld's don't accept `--version',\r
+ but do accept `-v'. From Jukka Honkela.\r
+ (ld_shlibs): AIX lossage may be settling down. AIX 3.2.5 ld does\r
+ *not* hardcode direct libraries, but AIX 4.1.[45] ld does.\r
+\r
+1997-04-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_action): Fix silly logic error. From\r
+ Bruno Haible.\r
+\r
+1997-04-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (install): Relink if hardcode_action is `relink',\r
+ rather than using complex conditionals based on the other\r
+ hardcode variables.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_action): Set to `relink', not `immediate',\r
+ if we can only hardcode existing directories. Rearrange\r
+ conditionals to make the intent clearer, otherwise this can be one\r
+ hellish piece of code for the already-dizzy libtool maintainer.\r
+\r
+1997-04-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * replfunc.m4: Delete from the distribution. Documentation now\r
+ describes how to set LTALLOCA and LTLIBOBJS in your own\r
+ configure.in.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Make sure a libtool library only counts as\r
+ a shared library if its library_names are non-null.\r
+ Use timestamps for .lo's when PIC is turned off, rather than\r
+ symlinking to the real object. This helps invalid mixtures of PIC\r
+ and non-PIC to fail.\r
+\r
+1997-04-01 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute libtool.prj.\r
+\r
+ * Shameless plug: Changed source code management system from CVS\r
+ to PRCS.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.scm: Initial Guile implementation of libtool.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: An unexpected inconsistency in my whole approach\r
+ to shared libraries has proven that libtool needs to be completely\r
+ rewritten if I'm going to give full shared library support for\r
+ platforms that don't use the GNU C library version 2 (which to my\r
+ knowledge currently only works on GNU Hurd and Linux/GNU systems).\r
+ Porting the GNU C library should not be difficult, though.\r
+\r
+ Platforms that don't have the dlopen(3) family of functions will\r
+ need to install GNU DLD version 4 in order to build any kind of\r
+ libraries at all. Unfortunately, DLD 4 won't be released for a\r
+ while, because I maintain it, and I'm too busy working on libtool.\r
+\r
+ I'll keep the old ltconfig/ltmain.sh implementation around for as\r
+ long as I can, and continue applying bug fixes, so that I'll have\r
+ a reasonable starting point for this new libtool implementation.\r
+\r
+ It looks like this implementation will be even more complex than\r
+ the original (pre-0.7) libtool. Initial estimates show that it\r
+ may be up to 3 times slower, and 5 times larger than libtool-0.9.\r
+ I'll probably have to rewrite it in Guile to get reasonable\r
+ performance, which will severely limit its portability for a\r
+ while.\r
+\r
+ That will also introduce a bootstrapping issue, since the next\r
+ release of Guile will use libtool to build shared libraries. So,\r
+ if users want to have shared Guile libraries, they will have to\r
+ configure Guile with `--disable-shared', compile it, install it,\r
+ then reconfigure Guile with `--enable-shared' and repeat.\r
+\r
+ I was hoping to get libtool 1.0 out the door by early April, but\r
+ now it looks like it will take at least another year before it'll\r
+ be usable by the public at large. April fools. libtool.scm\r
+ doesn't exist yet, either.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (verify_host): Remove redundant `Transform *-*-linux*\r
+ to *-*-linux-gnu*'. From Bruno Haible.\r
+\r
+1997-03-31 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am: Use the new AUTOMAKE and ACLOCAL variables.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Only fail if a convenience library doesn't\r
+ exist, and the user specified -whole-archive.\r
+ Fix shell quoting that was breaking @OUTPUT@ substitution.\r
+\r
+1997-03-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Use the hardcode_libdir_separator.\r
+ Convenience libraries are libtool objects if we're not building\r
+ libtool libs.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_libdir_separator): Added in case the\r
+ linker only honours the last of the -rpath flags (but it can\r
+ contain multiple colon-separated directories), such as on OSF/1.\r
+ Reported by Carl D. Roth.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Set the dlname if -export-dynamic is given.\r
+ (install, uninstall): Handle the dlname file separately.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (export_dynamic_flag): Added to allow programs to\r
+ use reflexive dlopens.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Include the mode name in any help messages.\r
+ (dlname): New mode to give the name to be used with dlopen(3).\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (AR): Allow AR to be set by the user, and export it\r
+ to ltmain.sh.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Remove broken profiled library support.\r
+ Added `-whole-archive' and `-no-whole-archive' to manipulate\r
+ convenience libraries.\r
+\r
+1997-03-27 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Allow the creation of static convenience\r
+ libraries made of libtool objects. Suggested by David\r
+ Mosberger-Tang.\r
+\r
+1997-03-25 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: On AIX, libtool also needs to look for `B' symbols\r
+ in nm output. These are global variable definitions.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Linking with -static should link against the\r
+ linklib if old_library is empty (like it is on AIX).\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Change the order of OS detection, so that\r
+ linux-gnu* is detected before gnu*.\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (libtool): Use the correct CC, RANLIB, LD, when\r
+ generating libtool. From Carl D. Roth.\r
+\r
+ * configure.in: Find out the user-supplied CC, LD, RANLIB. From\r
+ Carl D. Roth.\r
+\r
+1997-03-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Linking with -static should link against the old\r
+ library, not linklib.\r
+\r
+ * README-automake: Updated to point to Automake 1.1m.\r
+\r
+1997-03-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * demo/main.c: Use it.\r
+\r
+ * demo/foo.h: Declare it.\r
+\r
+ * demo/foo.c: Added definition of `nothing' so that we have an\r
+ global variable definition, as well as functions.\r
+\r
+1997-03-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Make sure either enable_shared or enable_static is\r
+ configured. Reported by Tom Tromey.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Bomb out if no library types are configured.\r
+\r

+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_libdir_flag_spec): Renamed\r
+ from `hardcode_libdir_flag'.\r
+ (library_names_spec): Renamed from `lib_names'.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_action): Change value from\r
+ `rpath' to `immediate'.\r
+\r
+ * replfunc.m4: Add AM_FUNC_ALLOCA, AM_FUNC_MEMCMP, and\r
+ AM_STRUCT_ST_BLOCKS.\r
+\r
+1997-02-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Transform *-*-linux* to *-*-linux-gnu* to support\r
+ old-style config.guess scripts.\r
+\r
+1997-02-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Create objdir *before* linking a program into it.\r
+\r
+1997-02-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Any ld --version that returns GNU is probably a GNU\r
+ ld. From Marcus Daniels.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4: Added AM_REPLACE_FUNCS.\r
+\r
+1997-02-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Trivial port to *-*-osf4. From Bruno Haible.\r
+\r
+1997-02-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: AIX 3 and 4 ld only hardcodes LIBPATH if -L is not\r
+ specified. This behaviour is the same with both xlc and gcc.\r
+\r
+1997-02-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * doc/platforms.texi: Yaay! We found a workaround for HP-UX\r
+ /bin/sh buffer overflows. From Eric Backus.\r
+\r
+1997-02-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Release 0.9.\r
+\r
+ * PLATFORMS, doc/platforms.texi, Makefile.am, doc/Makefile.am:\r
+ Move PLATFORMS to doc/platforms.texi.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Use hardcode_libdir_flag to get a library\r
+ directory into the resulting binary.\r
+ Use hardcode_action, and make many simplifying changes to have\r
+ compilation and finalization be consistent with each other.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Not so amazing! It's AIX cc that hardcodes direct\r
+ libraries... gcc doesn't, though.\r
+ (link_rpath_flag): Change link_rpath_flag to be\r
+ hardcode_libdir_flag.\r
+ (hardcode_action): New variable to simplify ltmain.sh.\r
+\r
+1997-01-29 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Change to take advantage of linkers that don't\r
+ hardcode direct libraries.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Amazing! AIX 3 linker doesn't hardcode direct\r
+ libraries, which makes it less buggy than AIX 4. Reported by Mark\r
+ Kettenis.\r
+\r
+ * demo/configure.in: Check for the math library.\r
+\r
+ * demo/foo.c (foo): Change to use the `cos' function, so that we\r
+ need to link against another library.\r
+\r
+1997-01-28 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Export the PATH variable in order to find\r
+ the program, rather than giving a full path. This helps give the\r
+ program a less confusing value for argv[0].\r
+\r
+1997-01-26 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Release 0.8.\r
+\r
+1997-01-24 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r

+ distribution.\r
+\r
+1997-01-22 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4: For IRIX 6, ld needs -n32 if cc uses it. Reported\r
+ by Bruno Haible.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: IRIX ld does not hardcode direct libraries.\r
+ Reported by Bruno Haible.\r
+\r
+1997-01-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (hardcode_shlibpath_var): Allow new\r
+ value, `unsupported', since most linkers do not allow you to use\r
+ shlibpath_var for initial linking.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Lots of bug fixes from Bruno Haible. Set wl on\r
+ OSF/1, fix definitions of hardcode_* variables.\r
+ (archive_cmds): Fix not to use +h on HP-UX 9.x. Reported by Bruno\r
+ Haible.\r
+\r
+1997-01-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * libtoolize.in: Handle explicit AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR settings.\r
+ Suggested by Akim Demaille.\r
+\r
+ * libtool.m4: Change ltconfig line to use $CONFIG_SHELL when it is\r
+ specified. Reported by Bruno Haible.\r
+\r
+1997-01-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am (hc-direct): Do better searching for the proper\r
+ name to do a direct link.\r
+ (hc-libpath): Make allowances if shlibpath_var cannot be used\r
+ to find libraries at link time, such as on AIX.\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (demo_distfiles): Remove ansi2knr.1 and ansi2knr.c.\r
+\r
+ * demo/foo.c, demo/hello.c, demo/main.c: Change ANSI prototypes to\r
+ KNR form, for better portability, and less ansi2knr hair.\r
+\r
+ * demo/configure.in: Remove AM_FUNC_PROTOTYPES.\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am: Remove ansi2knr from the AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.\r
+\r
+ * demo/ansi2knr.1, demo/ansi2knr.c: Removed these files.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Use 1>&2 consistently to direct errors and\r
+ warnings to stderr.\r
+ (compile): Fix missing single quote.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (hardcode_direct): On Solaris at least, using\r
+ DIR/libNAME.so does not hardcode DIR, so introduce a new hardcode\r
+ variable to reflect that.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): If linking with $link_static_flag fails,\r
+ then retry without it, but still use the .a versions of\r
+ uninstalled libtool archives.\r
+\r
+1997-01-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Eval $link_static_flag. Reported by Bruno\r
+ Haible.\r
+\r
+ * PLATFORMS: Add to distribution. Suggested by Bruno Haible.\r
+\r
+1997-01-13 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Add support for SCO OpenServer 5.x. From\r
+ Christopher Olsen.\r
+\r
+ (can_build_shared): Initialize at the top of the file, so that\r
+ shared libraries aren't built on platforms that don't support\r
+ them.\r
+\r
+1997-01-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in, ltconfig.in, libtoolize.in, doc/libtool.texi:\r
+ Update the copyright completion years.\r
+\r
+1997-01-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Port to IRIX 5.3, 6.2.\r
+\r
+1997-01-06 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: HP-UX 9 support is the same as HP-UX 10, so the\r
+ port is trivial.\r
+\r
+ * libtoolize.in: Add --dry-run option, -n for short.\r
+\r
+1997-01-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): On at least SunOS, /bin/sh doesn't\r
+ understand "export something=val". From Bruno Haible.\r
+\r
+1997-01-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (compile): Recognize valid source file suffixes for\r
+ Fortran and C++.\r
+\r
+1996-12-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Don't allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid\r
+ object type suffixes, in spite of Automake's current ansi2knr\r
+ implementation. Not all compilers allow non-`.o' suffixes.\r
+\r
+1996-12-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Delete the `libtool' version type.\r
+\r
+1996-12-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Use the full autoconf syntax when checking for GNU\r
+ C. Delete library stripping program, until we have a correct\r
+ test.\r
+\r
+1996-12-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: On AIX 3, use /usr/ucb/nm, not /ucb/nm. From Mark\r
+ Kettenis.\r
+\r
+1996-12-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ Reported by Charles Kerr:\r
+ * doc/libtool.texi (Creating Object Files): Doc fix independant ->\r
+ independent.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs): SunOS 4 doesn't support shared library\r
+ dependencies.\r
+\r
+1996-12-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * Release 0.7.\r
+\r
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add README-automake to the\r
+ distribution.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): When linking libtool libraries, use\r
+ standard objects if they are PIC. This prevents spurious warnings\r
+ about invalid suffixes on AIX.\r
+\r
+ * demo/Makefile.am: Rename libhell to libhello, so that we're not\r
+ quite as offensive.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Remove unnecessary host validity checking.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Don't force people to use libNAME.la: SOMETHING.la\r
+ is good enough (for consistency with *.a handling).\r
+\r
+1996-12-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Accept files ending in .a as standard\r
+ object files. Reported by Ulrich Drepper.\r
+ Remove support for creating profiled libraries (for now).\r
+ Transform all library objects into standard objects when linking a\r
+ program.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (thisdir): How embarrassing! An error in the regexp\r
+ for finding the directory component of the script path.\r
+\r
+1996-12-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (compile): Support `.S' (preprocessed assembler)\r
+ files. Reported by Anthony Green.\r
+\r
+ * libtoolize.in: Give clearer instrutions for how to update\r
+ aclocal.m4.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (link): Add support for creating\r
+ reloadable objects.\r
+\r
+1996-12-04 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix passing -n flag to `libtool\r
+ --finish'.\r
+ (compile): Compile `.lo' and `.o' objects at the same time so that\r
+ non-PIC objects (if they are available) can be used for linking\r
+ into programs and creating static archives. Suggested by Ulrich\r
+ Drepper.\r
+\r
+1996-12-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Give the full path to the libtool library\r
+ when sourcing it.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in (old_striplib): Do a configuration test to determine\r
+ if old-style libraries actually can be stripped or not.\r
+\r
+1996-12-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Delete reference to ABOUT-LIBS.\r
+\r
+ * tests: Added new subdirectory.\r
+\r
+ * doc/libtool.texi: Doc fixes, and finished up the Configuring\r
+ chapter.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (link): Allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid object\r
+ file suffixes, for Automake's ansi2knr implementation.\r
+ New option -version-info replaces -version-file.\r
+\r
+ [help]: Give a pointer to mode-specific help when appropriate.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Changed messages to correspond to AM_PROG_CC_STDC.\r
+\r
+ * demo: Also test Automake's ansi2knr support.\r
+\r
+1996-11-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Bug fixes for AIX 4, and for static platforms.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix for loops over arguments.\r
+ Need to quote ${IFS= } -> "${IFS= }".\r
+ (link): Fix soname_spec bug. Create objdir whether or not we have\r
+ shared libraries.\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Check for library stripping program.\r
+ Use test -f instead of test -e.\r
+\r
+1996-11-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltconfig.in: Don't run the RANLIB test unless RANLIB wasn't\r
+ set.\r
+ Be verbose about the environment variables we were configured\r
+ with.\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (objdir): change to .libs.\r
+\r
+1996-11-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in (install): Just plunge ahead with the\r
+ installation... don't try to enforce dependencies.\r
+\r
+1996-11-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh.in: Fix up $libdir to be $dest in install mode.\r
+\r
+1996-11-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * ltmain.sh: Finished rewrite of compile, link, and install\r
+ modes.\r
+\r
+ * New ChangeLog file for libtool-0.7, since I've totally rewritten\r
+ libtool.\r
+\r
+1996-03-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu>\r
+\r
+ * For historical reasons: this is when I started writing libtool.\r
