I am looking to convert my projects from using only a
Makefile to using AutoMake and AutoConf. A while ago
this would not have been a problem, but I have since
added functionality into my Makefiles to retreive some
code from CVS, for instance a C/C++ TCP class.
The Makefile uses the syntax:
Shared_Modules: Shared/
make -C Shared/
And then the Makefile in Shared/ follows the syntax:
CVS = cvs
TCP_RELEASE = TCP_RELEASE_1_0
TCP: TCP/
$(CVS) export -r $(TCP_RELEASE) TCP
Note: I use the standard CVSROOT in the environment
variable. I intend on providing information so that
other people can modify the CVS variable when
accessing it off-site (i.e. the whole :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
thing).
I use this in order to be able to make the project use
the latest code from my CVS. From what I could tell
from the AutoConf manual (and a quick search of the
Mailing list archives) this may not be possible using
AutoConf. Is there a way that I can keep this
functionality and still use AutoConf & AutoMake?
Help is much appreciated!
TIA,
Benjamen R. Meyer
