Hey all,
I'm wondering if there is a best practice for getting paths such as
locaeldir or datadir into source code. As it stands now in the Makefile
I've got:
prefix= /usr/local
datarootdir= ${prefix}/share
localedir = ${datarootdir}/locale
To get localedir into a source file, I've got a section in Makefile.am like:
DEFS = -DLOCALEDIR="\"$(localedir)\"" @DEFS@
(except that I've actually got several - localedir is just a convenient
example) It makes things a little ugly.
If I just do AC_DEFINE(LOCALEDIR,"${localedir}") I only get
#define LOCALEDIR "${datarootdir}/locale"
is there a cantrip I'm missing, or a decent way to deal with this?
Thanks!
