My setup is the following. I work on a machine with a windows, linux and shared partition. When developing a project with autoconf et al., I would like to be able to use a directory structure like this (on my shared partition),
$ ls linux myproj windows $ ls myproj AUTHORS INSTALL README bootstrap doc COPYING Makefile.am etc... Then I would hope to be able to switch to either the windows directory when on windows, or the linux directory when on Linux and $ bootstrap && configure -C && make && make install from there, and (heres where you come in) have any files that would normally be created in myproj be created in the current directory. For example, I dont want a config.cache to be created by say windows, and then be picked up when doing a configure on Linux. I obviously want to maintain this single shared project tree for both OSes. What do I need to change in bootstrap and configure.in to achieve this? Thanks for any advice.
