| Description: |
after configuring Tcl on Solaris, I see in tclConfig.sh: TCL_COMPAT_OBJS=' fixstrtod$U.o' What is the "$U" doing there? Other code that reads tclConfig.sh doesn't know how to make sense of it. | |||

Works for me. dgp added on 2004-12-10 21:31:46: Logged In: YES user_id=80530 A reply on the autoconf mailing list suggests a few possible workarounds: define([_AC_LIBOBJS_NORMALIZE],[]) AC_OUTPUT or save_LIBOBJS=$LIB@&t@OBJS AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE([[LIB@&t@OBJS=$save_LIBOBJS]]) AC_OUTPUT dkf added on 2004-12-10 17:37:19: Logged In: YES

autoconf goes to great lengths to prevent you from doing
this, but I think this incantation will work
AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE([
eval `echo LIB OBJS | sed 's/ //'`="\`echo
\"$ac_libobjs\" | sed 's/\$U//g'\`"
])

If that's not in 8.4 as well ... ??? | |||
