Conditional change of C++ compiler flags

2010-05-25 Thread Alex Farber
I want to add --enable-debug switch to my configure script, which replaces default "-g O3" compiler options with "-g3 -O0". My attempt is obviously incorrect: AC_ARG_ENABLE( debug, [ --enable-debug, Enable debug build], [ CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -g3 -O0"] ) This gives compiler command lin

Hello, I'm debating over what the most appropriate location for installing example programs for a library would be. Would it be acceptable to install example programs into datadir? Or should I create a non-standard directory in PREFIX called "examples"? Thanks, Sam __

Hi. Is it possible to reuse whatever AC_LANG_PROGRAM() produces? I would like to define a test-case for __thread/__declspec(thread) but I want to be able to use the same test-case for both AC_LINK_IFELSE() and AC_RUN_IFELSE(), and I do not want to repeat the source code of the test-case twice. T
