This was Phase I for the "DXF HID" project.

Sofar the one and only problem starting Phase II (implementing dxf.c in
pcb), occurs when I try to do a ./configure --with-exporter=dxf --> make
session.

make[4]: *** No rule to make target `libdxf.a', needed by `all-am'.  Stop.

What I did for creating a dxf HID was copy the bom HID files to a newly made
dxf subdir and replacing all the "bom" references for "dxf".

I don't know how or where to tell configure (or make) to let the dxf.c hid
create a libdxf.a (see the included build log).

./configure and Makefile are a bit obfuscated to me, and not really my
friends ... yet.

edit configure.ac in the top level directory. If you need any external libs for dxf, take a look at the way the png hid works (just search for png). Otherwise look at how "bom" shows up (really simple, you just list "dxf" in the 1 line where "bom" shows up).

Now edit src/Makefile.am and again, use the bom hid as a guide. You'll want to add libdxf.a to EXTRA_LIBRARIES, add $(srcdir)/hid/dxf/hid.conf to EXTRA_DIST, and add

libdxf_a_SOURCES = \
        hid/hidint.h \
        hid/dxf/dxf.c

finally, you may or may not need to add hid/dxf/dxf_lists.h to BUILT_SOURCES -- look at the ps or png hid's here for example.s


Now that you have edited configure.ac and Makefile.am run "./autogen.sh" from the top directory. This recreates configure and all of the Makefile.in's. Now you should be able to ./configure and have it all Just Work.
