Update of /cvsroot/plplot/plplot In directory sc8-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv4525 Modified Files: configure.ac sysloc.in Log Message: Some improvements in the swig checks: 1) Versions 1.3.x, x >= 17 are accepted, not only exactly the version 1.3.17. 2) Some stylistic changes like the use of "test" instead of "[". Also, I do not think that echoing the version numbers is useful, since it clutters the normal output of the configure script(that is pretty non-standard). I commented that. 3) I added AC_MSG_WARN to tell the the user that the available swig is too old. However, in order to not show spurious warning messages to the regular user, the AC_MSG_WARN is only run when we are in "maintainer mode". For that to work, I added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE to configure.ac. This macro is almost harmless and one of the effects is to define a configure option --enable-maintainer-mode. If you use it, then you will see the swig version warning if your swig is older than 1.3.17. I hope that the introduction of AM_MAINTAINER_MODE will not introduce undesirable side-effects in the Makefiles. If that happens or if you dislike this idea, plese revert to the previous situation. |
