Hi,
I'm a real beginner with autoconf/automake and I'm trying to configure a
C project structured into multiple directories.
For each directory containing C files, I wonder if there is a way to
store the intermediate object files (*.o) into a separate 'objects'
subdirectory.
The usual way to do is a little different, but has IMHO advantages:
You use a build tree separate from the source tree. Assuming your
package is named foobar, and a source layout like this:
foobar/
configure.ac
Makefile.am
foo.c
bar.c
Create a separate build dir and build there:
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ ../foobar/configure [options]
$ make
This has the advantage that you can have many build trees as you want
(for different compile options, different systems with source on NFS,
whatever).
Regards,
Ralf
