Synopsis

AC_CREATE_PREFIX_CONFIG_H [(OUTPUT-HEADER [,PREFIX [,ORIG-HEADER]])]

Version

1.3 (2002/09/12)     guidod @ ac-archive-0.5.39

Author

Guido Draheim <guidod@gmx.de>

Description

obsoleted by AX_PREFIX_CONFIG_H

* this is a new variant from ac_prefix_config_
this one will use a lowercase-prefix if the config-define was starting with a lowercase-char, e.g.
   #define const or #define restrict or #define off_t
(and this one can live in another directory, e.g. testpkg/config.h therefore I decided to move the output-header to be the first arg)

takes the usual config.h generated header file; looks for each of the generated "#define SOMEDEF" lines, and prefixes the defined name (ie. makes it "#define PREFIX_SOMEDEF". The result is written to the output config.header file. The PREFIX is converted to uppercase for the conversions.

- default OUTPUT-HEADER = $PACKAGE-config.h
- default PREFIX = $PACKAGE
- default ORIG-HEADER, derived from OUTPUT-HEADER
         if OUTPUT-HEADER has a "/", use the basename
         if OUTPUT-HEADER has a "-", use the section after it.
         otherwise, just config.h

In most cases, the configure.in will contain a line saying
         AC_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h) 
somewhere *before* AC_OUTPUT and a simple line saying
        AC_PREFIX_CONFIG_HEADER
somewhere *after* AC_OUTPUT.

example:
   AC_INIT(config.h.in)        # config.h.in as created by "autoheader"
   AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(testpkg, 0.1.1)   # "#undef VERSION" and "PACKAGE"
   AM_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h)         #                in config.h.in
   AC_MEMORY_H                        # "#undef NEED_MEMORY_H"
   AC_C_CONST_H                       # "#undef const"
   AC_OUTPUT(Makefile)                # creates the "config.h" now
   AC_CREATE_PREFIX_CONFIG_H          # creates "testpkg-config.h"
         and the resulting "testpkg-config.h" contains lines like
   #ifndef TESTPKG_VERSION 
   #define TESTPKG_VERSION "0.1.1"
   #endif
   #ifndef TESTPKG_NEED_MEMORY_H 
   #define TESTPKG_NEED_MEMORY_H 1
   #endif
   #ifndef _testpkg_const 
   #define _testpkg_const const
   #endif

   and this "testpkg-config.h" can be installed along with other
   header-files, which is most convenient when creating a shared
   library (that has some headers) where some functionality is
   dependent on the OS-features detected at compile-time. No
   need to invent some "testpkg-confdefs.h.in" manually. :-)
