Greets for everyone,
I hope someone will be able to help me. Here's my problem description.
I'm passing my code to autotools (usual make tool was used before). The final stage of
make (after configure et al.) if an executable creation. Several libraries are needed
for linking. These libraries contain some cross-dependencies so I have to pass them
several times in a PRECISE order with -l<libname>. It looks like this:
myexec_LDADD = -lLIB1 -lLIB2 -lLIB3 -lLIB1
Apparently, the autotools manage this kind of entries and the compile line contains
only
-lLIB2 -lLIB3 -lLIB1
Entries passed more than once are removed and the linking fails (undefined reference
to ...). I haven't found the place where it happens in configure.in or macro
definitions. The makefiles generated don't contain the "sorted" line neiher.
Is there a way to oblige the automake not to "clean" the line and to leave double
entries?
Thank you in advance
Nathaniel.
