Re: [Opencxx-users] Makefile.am showing 'make test' does not require reconfiguring

[Grzegorz J. <ja...@ac...>]

Hi,

Wow, if it runs also on Darwin also, then it is really cool and much 
cleaner. I was under impression that libtool library has to be installed 
to be linked agains, but now I reread docs and it looks that indeed it 
does not, providing libtool is used for linking. However, I rememeber 
that Alex Tolmos had some problems with thin on Darwin, so I will not 
shout urray unless I see it running on this system.

The only issue I can see is that with this set-up there is no way to 
check if all necessary headers are installed. However AFAIU this should 
not be difficult to fix by adding a test to 'make installcheck'.

Thanks!
Grzegorz
