From ad42b34b1b2544a462f48373199d6b22f4c70f38 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Daniel P. Berrange" Date: Tue, 2 Apr 2013 16:52:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Disable static libraries by default Every source file is currently built twice by libtool, once for the shared library and once for the static library. Static libs are not commonly packaged by distros and slow down compilation time by more than 50% compared to a shared-only build time. Time for 'make -j 4': shared only: 2 mins 9 secs shared + static: 3 mins 26 secs Time for non-parallel make shared only: 3 mins 32 secs shared + static: 5 mins 41 secs Those few people who really want them, can pass --enable-static to configure Disabling them by default requires use of LT_INIT, but for compat with RHEL5 we can't rely on that. So we conditionally use LT_INIT, but fallback to AM_PROG_LIBTOOL if not present. --- autobuild.sh | 3 ++- configure.ac | 6 +++++- 2 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/autobuild.sh b/autobuild.sh index b3cb2514b5..a8781b0791 100755 --- a/autobuild.sh +++ b/autobuild.sh @@ -20,7 +20,8 @@ cd build ../autogen.sh --prefix="$AUTOBUILD_INSTALL_ROOT" \ --enable-test-coverage \ --disable-nls \ - --enable-werror + --enable-werror \ + --enable-static # If the MAKEFLAGS envvar does not yet include a -j option, # add -jN where N depends on the number of processors. diff --git a/configure.ac b/configure.ac index 09e4ad9f72..0df9e5ccd1 100644 --- a/configure.ac +++ b/configure.ac @@ -123,7 +123,11 @@ AC_TYPE_UID_T dnl Support building Win32 DLLs (must appear *before* AM_PROG_LIBTOOL) AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL -AM_PROG_LIBTOOL +m4_ifndef([LT_INIT], [ + AM_PROG_LIBTOOL +], [ + LT_INIT([shared disable-static]) +]) AM_PROG_CC_C_O AM_PROG_LD -- 2.47.2
