Hi folks, here's a little article I wrote about an approach for encapsulating platform dependent stdc-lib fixes (ie. some platforms have broken string handling, etc) behind pkg-config. It is mostly directed on autoconf (It is the one I have most of my daily trouble with), but of course the approach works with other buildsystems, even plain make, too. The permanent URL of the article: * http://www.metux.de/articles/coding/trimming-down-autoconf-with-pkg-config I'm also currently working on concrete wrapper packages: * http://wiki.metux.de/public/OSS_QM_Taskforce/projects/stdc-pkgconfig Comments and suggestions please to the Maillist: oss-qm-discuss@metux.de Thanks. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service phone: +49 36207 519931 www: http://www.metux.de/ fax: +49 36207 519932 email: info@metux.de cellphone: +49 174 7066481 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
