Re: Quick question on optional builds with automake

 Hi I'm working on converting blender (www.blender.org)
 To automake/autoconf etc...

 I have the first part mostly working (producing 1 binary)
 The next stage I'd like to do is get it to
 build a second binary only when I type make blenderplayer

 I'd also like to do a make webplugin (which will create
 a shared library)

 Any pointers on how to do this?
From reading the docs I was guessing 
 bin_PROGRAMS = blender
 extra_PROGRAMS = blenderplayer
 extra_LTLIBRARIES = blenderplugin.la

That is one way to go about it.  However, you'll not be able to
install these programs/plugins using the normal 'make install'.

So, depending on what you want to do, it may make more sense to
change your 'configure.in' and 'Makefile.am' to support

  --enable-blenderplayer
  --enable-webplugin

Then, the standard 'make  make check  make install' will do the
right thing.

Re: automake 1.7.1 hangs while processing Makefile.am

 As a workaround I suggest you use _LDADD substitutions as
 suggested in the `Conditional Sources' section of the manual.

 Basically instead of playing with conditionals, you should just
 fill an AC_SUBSTed variable with the objects you want.

 test x$needs_mode_cat = xyes  condobjs=$condobj mod_cat.$(OBJEXT)
 test x$needs_mode_cmp = xyes  condobjs=$condobj mod_cmp.$(OBJEXT)
 test x$needs_mode_fix = xyes  condobjs=$condobj mod_fix.$(OBJEXT)
 ...
 AC_SUBST([condobjs])

 Then use $(condobjs) to fill shntool_LDADD and
 shntool_DEPENDENCIES in Makefile.am.


Thank you, this worked like a charm.  I also had to add all possible
format source files to EXTRA_DIST so they would be included in the
distribution.  :)

I've included my current Makefile.am below for reference, in case anyone
is curious.  It works fine with the latest automake 1.7.2.

Thanks again for your help!
