configureThe following macros manage version numbers for configure
scripts. Using them is optional.
| AC_PREREQ (version) | Macro |
Ensure that a recent enough version of Autoconf is being used. If the
version of Autoconf being used to create configure is earlier
than version, print an error message to the standard error output
and do not create configure. For example:
AC_PREREQ(2.53) This macro is the only macro that may be used before |
| AC_COPYRIGHT (copyright-notice) | Macro |
State that, in addition to the Free Software Foundation's copyright on
the Autoconf macros, parts of your configure are covered by the
copyright-notice.
The copyright-notice will show up in both the head of
|
| AC_REVISION (revision-info) | Macro |
Copy revision stamp revision-info into the configure
script, with any dollar signs or double-quotes removed. This macro lets
you put a revision stamp from configure.ac into configure
without RCS or cvs changing it when you check in
configure. That way, you can determine easily which revision of
configure.ac a particular configure corresponds to.
For example, this line in AC_REVISION($Revision: 1.30 $) produces this in #! /bin/sh # From configure.ac Revision: 1.30 |
