====== Quick autotools ======


====== Start from Zero ======
  * Read first page

1. Prepare project source: 
   mkdir src
   cp -r ../src/* src

2. Autoscan and generate configure.scan

3. Rename configure.scan to configure.ac
   rm autoscan.log
   mv configure.scan configure.ac
   
4. Edit Makefile.am

Root Makefile.am
<code>
cat ./Makefile.am 
# $Id$

ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4

SUBDIRS = src tests tools examples
</code>

src/Makefile.am

<code>
    cd src
    # update SRCS
    find . -name *.cpp
    find . -name *.h
    vim Makefile.am
    
    cat Makefile.am
    
    # $Id$

ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I m4

SUBDIRS = src tests tools examples
[dang@localhost libdaiutil]$ ls
examples  Makefile.am  src  svn_update_ext_src.sh  tests  tools
[dang@localhost libdaiutil]$ cat src/Makefile.am 
# $Id$

===== Level 2 Headline =====

5. autoscan, mv configure.scan configure.ac

6. $ aclocal $ autoheader

7.  libtoolize --force --copy

As the result:
    libtoolize: Remember to add `LT_INIT' to configure.ac.
    libtoolize: Consider adding `AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])' to configure.ac and
    libtoolize: rerunning libtoolize, to keep the correct libtool macros in-tree.

8. $ automake --add-missing --copy --foreign
    AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE >> configure.ac
    aclocal --> aclocal.m4, define Macros
    autoconf now understands configure.ac
    
    AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR(src)
    AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([foreign -Wall -Werror])
    AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([subdir-objects])
    
<code>
 ...
 $ autoconf
 ...
 $ ./configure
 ...
 $ make

 $ make DESTDIR=`pwd`/inst/ install

====== Eclipse autotools ======
Enabling autotools:

  * autotools support wiht linuxtools: http://download.eclipse.org/technology/linuxtools/update
    * http://tronprog.blogspot.de/2009/06/tutorial-using-autotools-with-eclipse.html

Using CDT autotools:
  * enable maintainance mode
    * properties -> autotools -> configure settings -> advanced -> enable...
    * ccache gcc
    * 

  * import or create project from folder.
  * convert to autotools project.
