Scott Cantor commented on XERCESC-1892:
---------------------------------------
I may be able to provide an actual patch later, but in the meantime, the code I
use for a curl dependency in my project looks like this. I follow that up with
the usual AC_CHECK_HEADER and AC_CHECK_LIB macros to verify the dependency, but
this is the meat of it.
AC_PATH_PROG(CURL_CONFIG,curl-config)
AC_ARG_WITH(curl,
AC_HELP_STRING([--with-curl=PATH], [where curl-config is
installed]),
[
CURL_CONFIG="${with_curl}"
if ! test -f "${CURL_CONFIG}" ; then
CURL_CONFIG="${with_curl}/bin/curl-config"
fi
])
if test -f "${CURL_CONFIG}" ; then
CPPFLAGS="`${CURL_CONFIG} --cflags` $CPPFLAGS"
LIBS="`${CURL_CONFIG} --libs` $LIBS"
else
AC_MSG_ERROR([curl-config not found, may need to use --with-curl
option])
fi

> Key: XERCESC-1892
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1892
> Project: Xerces-C++
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.0.1
> Reporter: Philip Brown
>
> I am building two sets of tool chains. one 32bit, in /usr/local.
> Another one, 64bit, in /usr/local/64
> I have taken everything referencing /usr/local out of my environment, and
> have successfully compiled other software. However, when it comes to xerces-c
> 3.0.1, even though I have explicitly told it
> --prefix=/usr/local/64
> it insists on adding -L/usr/local/lib for curl or something.
> I dont know for sure that curl is the reason why it is added.. but it PICKS
> UP /usr/local/lib/libcurl.la from that, and then screws up my nice 64bit
> build, by attempting to link in /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so
> When I temporarily remove libcurl.la from there, it compiles. but this is not
> an acceptible workaround.
> Actually, it would appear that specifying --with-curl=/usr/local/64
> overrides, but this is inappropriate! it should check in $prefix FIRST, not
> decide to go look in /usr/local for curl before anything else.
