#1612 make *** error

[Johannes Schickel]

I have configured with configure --enable-plugins .
And if i use make modulename the make file will create
a static library not a dynamic. And make install don't
copy the dynamic libs.

To process your bug report appropriately, we need you to
provide the following additional information:

* ScummVM version (PLEASE test the latest CVS/Daily build)
* Bug details, including instructions on reproducing it
* Language of game (English, German, ...)
* Version of game (talkie, floppy, ...)
* Platform and Compiler (Win32, Linux, MacOS, ...)
* Attach a save game if possible
* If this bug only occurred recently, please note the last
version without the bug, and the first version including
the bug. That way we can fix it quicker by looking at the
changes made.

This should only take you a little time but will make it much easier for
us to process your bug report in a way that satisfies both you and us.

Thank you for your support!

- latest CVS Code
- Linux with gcc 3.3.2 and Windows with MinGW 3.3.3

and the error must be in the configure file or in the makefile!

To elaborate a bit on this, I think the issue that lordhoto
is referring to is the following:

the "pseudo target for comfort" for modules in common.rules
(near the bottom of the file) explicitly depends on
$(MODULE_LIB-$(MODULE)). When using --enable-plugins, this
convenience target should probably point to
$(PLUGIN-$(MODULE)) instead.

I changed the convenience target to create the plugins, instead of the
static libs. Note that this just was a problem with a *convenience*
target, it didn't affect the regular build process.

As to "make install", that is, as of now, a totally unsupported thing, and
may format your HD or do bad things to your granny. Please don't file
bug reports about it :-)
