[Flex-help] flex-2.5.37 testsuite clean up on Solaris

[Dennis C. <dc...@bl...>]

Okay, looks like I have it sorted out now. For now I will try to just go through the usual motions after an autoreconf to see if this all works well. 

# uname -a 
SunOS ns1 5.10 Generic_147440-21 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-i2
# which cc

# cc -V
cc: Sun C 5.9 SunOS_sparc Patch 124867-16 2010/08/11
usage: cc [ options] files.  Use 'cc -flags' for details

I hand edited all the tests Makefile.am files and then ran autoreconf thus :

The end result is Makefiles in the tests directories like so : 

#  grep CXX tests/test-c++-yywrap/Makefile | grep "\ \-o"
        $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) -o $@ $(LDFLAGS) $(OBJS)
        $(CXX) -c $(CXXFLAGS) -o $@ $(AM_CPPFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) $<
# 
# grep CC tests/test-lineno-r/Makefile | grep "\ \-o"
        $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o $@ $(LDFLAGS) $(OBJS) $(LOADLIBES)
        $(CC) -c -o $@ $(AM_CPPFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) $<
# 

those look correct to me as they now use $(CFLAGS) and $(CXXFLAGS) on the compile lines. 

However, I do see that for some reason the C++ compiler is still being called with the options from $CFLAGS. 

okay .. I'm working on it here ... bear with me
