please help me a little with autotools

[Henri Schomäcker]

Hi folks,

I am developing a apache2 so module in c++.
At the moment, I'm trying to get it to compile with automake & friends, but
don't get it to work. I tried to modify the example in the programmer-docs.
I created a simple c++ project and deleted the src subdir and copied my
sourcecode files into the basedir.
(That's not where I want to let them in the end, but I thought it might be
easier in the beginning)
Then I copied the sample Makefile.am over the existing one and edited it to
what I thought would fit my needs, but It just didn't work. The autotools
just stopped with error code 2. No more "messages", no "problems".

Could please someone help me to make a working Makefile.am out of the sample
info of my manual makefile? - If you're familiar with the autotools, please
point me into the right direction.

I want to build mod_cms.so, dynamically linked to the apache2 and odbc++
libs.

Many thanks in advance,
yours Henri

Why don't you look at the reference Attila gave?

As folks used to say in the old days, RTFM.
And: You'll never get support by me in any ther group where you are new and

Perhaps also see <url:http://www.winternet.c om/~mikelr/flame52.html>.
btw: no realname?

Google is your friend.

Oh NO! Don't get Wolf started on this. And you don't have
"Hungarian to Asshole dictionary" anyway. I guess. ;-) ;-)

Google is your friend.

1. Didn't want to start a flamewar: You do.
2. I read the files!
3. Don't want to and shouldn't have to ask google for a realname of anyone
posting.
4. If you don't like my question here: Which one IS the right ng for my
autotools question? - This ng is comp.lang.c++: Every open-source unix c++
program uses these, so why should this be offtopic? - No, it's not
restrited to unixes: It's also available and used for win32. - I'll use it
for this.

So, what the hell is your problem?

Then read the links.

would be the right one!
Also in the links, probably. Besides that, this group is not
alt.find.the.ri ght.group.for.w hatever.topic.y ou.want.
Your name gets directly into my blacklist with this reply !!!
Itchy trigger finger?

Off-topic re-directions are not destructive. Off-topic posts are. As the
archives can show, Attila is perfectly willing and able to help people
who post topical questions on this group.

And: You'll never get support by me in any ther group where you are new and
Im established.

Well, considering you can't even find the right group to post in, I'm
not sure he would be eager to seek your help anyway.

If you are trying not to start a flame war, you are doing a bad job of
it. Here's some tips for the future:

1) Don't post off-topic messages.
2) Don't insist your off-topic messages are on-topic.
3) Don't attack regulars for politely re-directing you.
4. If you don't like my question here: Which one IS the right ng for my
autotools question? - This ng is comp.lang.c++: Every open-source unix c++

If you can show where it's defined in the C++ standard then we'll admit
your question is topical and apologize. If the C++ standard does not
define it, it is not C++.
- No, it's not
restrited to unixes: It's also available and used for win32. - I'll use it
for this.

So, what the hell is your problem?

I don't know about Alf, but my problems with the group mainly consist of
off-topic posters and flame war starters.

check around
