- Synopsis
AC_COND_WITH(PACKAGE [,DEFAULT])
- Version
1.1.1.1 (2001/07/26) Miscellaneous @ ac-archive-0.5.39
- Author

- Description
actually used after an AC_ARG_WITH(PKG,...) option-directive,
where AC_ARG_WITH is a part of the standard autoconf to define a
`configure` --with-PKG option.
the AC_COND_WITH(PKG) will use the $with_PKG var to define WITH_PKG and
WITHOUT_PKG substitutions (AC_SUBST), that are either '' or '#' -
depending whether the var was "no" or not (probably 'yes', or a value);
it will also declare WITHVAL_PKG for use when someone wanted to set a val
other than just "yes". And there is a WITHDEF_PKG that expands to a
C-precompiler definition of the form -DWITH_PKG or -DWITH_PKG=\"value\"
(n.b.: the PKG *is* uppercased if in lowercase and "-" translit to "_")
this macro is most handily in making Makefile.in/Makefile.am that have
a set of if-with declarations that can be defined as follows:
CFLAGS = -Wall @WITHOUT_FLOAT@ -msoft-float # --without-float
@WITH_FLOAT@ LIBS += -lm # --with-float
DEFS += -DNDEBUG @WITHDEF_MY_PKG@ # --with-my-pkg="/usr/lib"
DEFS += @WITHVAL_DEFS@ # --with-defs="-DLOGLEVEL=6"
example configure.in:
AC_ARG_WITH(float,
[ --with-float, with float words support])
AC_COND_WITH(float,no)
extened notes:
1. the idea comes from AM_CONDITIONAL but it is much easier to use,
and unlike automake's ifcond, the Makefile.am will work as a
normal $(MAKE) -f Makefile.am makefile.
2. the @VALS@ are parsed over by automake so automake will see all
the filenames and definitions that follow @WITH_FLOAT@, so that
the AC_COND_WITH user can see additional message if they apply.
3. in this m4-part, there's a AC_ARG_COND_WITH with the synopsis of
AC_ARG_WITH and an implicit following AC_COND_WITH =:-)
4. and there is an AC_ARG_COND_WITH_DEFINE that will emit an
implicit AC_DEFINE that is actually seen by autoheader, even
generated with the correct name and comment, for config.h.in
some non-autoconf coders tend to create "editable" Makefile where
they have out-commented lines with an example (additional) definition.
Each of these can be replaced with a three-liner in configure.in as
shown above. Starting to use AC_COND_WITH will soon lead you to
provide a dozen --with-option rules for the `configure` user. Do it!
