Background:
I'm on the way to add the installcheck target to GnuCOBOL which uses
autotools. The testsuite generated by autoconf does source atconfig
(directly generated from config.status) and atlocal (from atlocal.in).
The generated testsuite uses variables which are setup in atlocal,
therefore I'd just run the testsuite in the installcheck-local target
but prefix it with a variable, check this variable in atlocal and adjust
the variables that are setup for the testsuite to not use
{abs_top_builddir} and {abs_top_srcdir} (both from atconfig) but a
variant that points to the destination directories.
[as make installcheck should also work if ]
Question: Is there an option to extend the entries in atconfig?
If not -D o you see a better option of passing the installation
options[1] to atlocal then to AC_SUBST them?
Thank you for your feedback (and response to this mail in addition to
the mailing list),
Simon
[1]: relevant installation options needed to be passed (all other
installation paths / options are hard-wired into the
not-yet-relocatable, not-yet-reproducible binaries)
--bindir=DIR user executables [EPREFIX/bin]
--libdir=DIR object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib]
--program-prefix=PREFIX prepend PREFIX to installed program names
--program-suffix=SUFFIX append SUFFIX to installed program names
--program-transform-name=PROGRAM run sed PROGRAM on installed
program name
Coming to think of this - actually I'd only need the final name of the
installed binaries (2-3) [but would have no idea how to get those
directly] and libdir (to setup LD_LIBRARY_PATH).
