branches/12/configure.ac <https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/4091/#comment24091> Is it appropriate for us to use $ac_cv_c_char_unsigned? I raise this question since the variable is not documented. Might be better to just directly test "((char) -1) < 0" the same way AC_C_CHAR_UNSIGNED does, except to just set CONFIG_SIGNED_CHAR. - Corey Farrell On Oct. 16, 2014, 6:18 p.m., George Joseph wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
