Hi, My comment was cmake was regarding the general use of libtool, automake and autoconf:
From *KDE developer Alexander Neundorf : (*http://lwn.net/Articles/188693/) Now the next big change is happening: KDE is leaving the aging "autotool" build chain behind. Some developers, not only in KDE, like to nickname the autotools as "*auto-hell*" because of its difficult to comprehend architecture. So, KDE 4 will feature a completely different build system: CMake <http://www.cmake.org/>. Having Used cmake (I have no association with them) I found it much easier to handle build systems with the cmake. then with the autotool chain which I did get to meddle with quite a bit in the past. Have a nice day. 2008/9/23 Oron Peled <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > On Tuesday, 23 בSeptember 2008, Shachar Shemesh wrote: > > Oron Peled wrote: > > > Libtool has a standard '-module' option for this which is used during > > > linking (--mode=link) and weirdly enough is passed as an argument > *after* > > > the gcc argument (but parsed and handled by libtool... hmmm). > > > > > > For the details you'd want to look at: > > > info libtool dlopen building > > > > plugin_la_LDFLAGS = -module -avoid-version > > ... > > Now I'm wondering what other options libtool has that do not appear in > > either libtool --help nor at the manual. > > You was probably missled by the man page packaged by Debian (upstream > autotools have only info pages). > > As I said, run: > info libtool dlopen building > And it will bring you right to the page. > > The -avoid-version option was new to me, thanks.
