[Patch] Re: compile not copied? Why?
Hi folks, Harald Dunkel wrote: Hi folks, What is the criteria for copying the compile script into the source directory tree?

As soon as you have C++ code in your Makefile.am (with or without C code), compile is not copied into the source tree anymore. This breaks support for MSVC. Below you can find a patch.

What is the best way to localize files
What is the best way to use msgfmt in a Makefile.am for localization of files? Back in 2003 there was a discussion about introducing something like: locale_POTS = foo.pot foo_pot_SOURCES = a.c a.h b.c b.h ... foo_pot_LANGFILE = LINGUAS foo_pot_XGETTEXTFLAGS = --keyword=_ --keyword=N_ Has this happened, is this available? At the moment the Makefile.am has the following code: .po.mo: $(MSGFMT) -o $@ $ PHP_LOCALE_DE_PO = php/admin/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po PHP_LOCALE_DE_MO = php/admin/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo localedir = $(phpkolabdir)/locale phplocalededir = $(localedir)/de/LC_MESSAGES phplocalede_DATA = $(PHP_LOCALE_DE_MO) That is repeated for several languages. If I may ask, how to improve this?? The current problem is that 'make distcheck' fails with the following error: msgfmt -o php/admin/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo ../../php/admin/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po msgfmt: error while opening php/admin/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo for writing: unknown directory of file. This is due to the output directory not being created. -- Thanks in advance, Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless
