I tried something like this in my configure.ac file:
MYDIR=${datadir}/foo
AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED(MYDIR,"$MYDIR",[default search directory for foo])
but this ends up with:
/* default search directory for foo */
#define MYDIR "${prefix}/share/foo"
in config.h but what I really wanted is the fully expanded directory, like
"/opt/something/share/foo" or "/usr/local/share/foo"
Is there an option which will fully expand a variable or do I need to do
something like
CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS -DMYDIR=$MYDIR"
instead?
Thanks
