134 2010-10-15 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
136 libtool: remove redundant unsubstituted shell var defaults.
137 * Makefile.am (libltdl/config/ltmain.sh): Boilerplate code from
138 libltdl/config/general.m4 sets some default shell variables
139 designed to be substituted by `$(configure_edit)'. Actually,
140 `libtool' uses the language tag values for those variables, and
141 `ltmain.m4sh' is not passed through `$(configure_edit)', so they
142 are just noise. Edit them out at bootstrap time.
144 2010-10-15 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
146 maint: don't leak developer GREP, SED etc into distribution file.
147 * Makefile.am: Having rearranged the file, now apply the actual
148 changes to follow-up.

150 (bootstrap_edit): ...substitutions that should happen at bootstrap
152 (configure_edit): ...and substitutions that should not happen until
154 * Makefile.am (libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4, libltdl/config/ltmain.sh)
155 (libtoolize.in, tests/package.m4): Use bootstrap_edit.

176 whole_archive_flag_spec is nonempty. Fixes convenience.at test
177 suite failures with gfortran 4.2 on Darwin.
179 Report by Paul Laight.
181 Fix bindir check logic, and relax non-bindir case for AIX.
182 * tests/bindir.at (bindir install tests): Rewrite checks for
183 place of the installed shared library in two separate tests,
184 depending on whether -bindir is supposed to have an effect or
185 not. In the positive case, make the test stricter so that we
186 reject libraries in $libdir. In the negative case, do not
187 require a major version number in the $libdir file name, for AIX
188 without runtimelinking. If tmpdir creation fails, skip the
189 test. Use fewer bindir directory names for testing, to speed
190 up the test. Also mention MSVC style DLL name in comment.
191 Report by Peter Rosin.
193 tests: remove unneeded 'bindir compile check' test.
194 * tests/bindir.at (bindir compile check): Remove.
196 2010-10-14 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
198 tests: fix $EXEEXT typo.

227 2010-10-04 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
229 cwrapper: split long lines when dumping the wrapper script.
230 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_emit_cwrapperexe_src): If
231 the wrapper script contains long lines, split them for
232 readability and to conform with C standards.
233 * tests/cwrapper.at (cwrapper string length): New test, making
234 sure we don't regress.

259 * tests/demo/foo.h, tests/pdemo/foo.h (nothing) <MSVC>: Export
260 variable when building the libhello dll and import when using
261 libhello. For GCC and non-w32, and when building a static
262 libhello, leave as an ordinary extern.
263 * tests/pdemo/foo.h [Cygwin]: Remove unneeded and "dead" export
264 and import logic (LIBFOO_DLL is always undefined).
265 * tests/pdemo/longer_file_name_foo.c,
266 tests/pdemo/longer_file_name_foo2.c (_LIBFOO_COMPILATION_): Not
267 useful before, even less so now. Removed.
268 * tests/depdemo/l1/Makefile.am: Define BUILDING_LIBL1 when

277 tests/depdemo/l3/l3.h, tests/depdemo/l4/l4.h <MSVC>: Export
278 variables when building the associated library dll and import
279 when using the library. For GCC and non-w32, and when building
280 static libraries, leave as an ordinary extern.
282 2010-09-26 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
284 docs: do not refer to Libtool version with dlopen functionality.

301 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (LT_CMD_MAX_LEN): Use `env echo' rather
302 than possibly-undefined func_fallback_echo, to ensure we fork
303 and exec for this test.
305 Regression introduced in v2.2.6-39-g9c3d4d8.
307 2010-09-22 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>

316 static libprefix interface, so new version-info is C+1:0:R+1.
317 * configure.ac, libltdl/configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump version
319 * NEWS: Update version number.
321 manual: web-manual index.html clashes with @node Index.
322 * doc/libtool.texi (Index): Renamed to `Combined Index'.
324 tests: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'v1' with no type.
325 * tests/lt_dlexit.at (lt_dlexit unloading libs): Added an

343 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER) [mingw, cygwin]
344 <cl*, sys_lib_search_path_spec>: The LIB path variable telling
345 where MSVC looks for libraries is likely to contain directory
346 names with spaces. Convert those directory names to the short
347 8.3 DOS form (i.e. without spaces) when storing them in
348 sys_lib_search_path_spec, as that is a space separated variable.

352 Revert to per-language libpath computation on AIX.
353 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_MODULE_PATH_AIX): Accept

363 maint: edit-readme-alpha shouldn't try to re-edit during dist.
364 * libltdl/config/edit-readme-alpha: If README is non-writable
365 assume that it is being run from distcheck, and skip the edit
366 with a warning (to help diagnose cases where the heuristic is
367 not correct). However, if README has already been edited to
368 the alpha text, quietly skip without an error message.

392 * tests/exceptions.at (common.h, module.h, lib.h) [w32]: Use
393 __declspec (dllimport) and __declspec (dllexport) instead of
394 the less portable __attribute__ ((dllimport)) and

461 Fix order of PATH manipulation in cwrapper and shwrapper
462 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_emit_cwrapperexe_src:main): Call
463 lt_update_exe_path before lt_update_lib_path, to ensure that the
464 temporary rpath values (which include the OBJDIRs of uninstalled
465 libtool libraries) precede installation and final -rpath directories.
466 (func_emit_wrapper): Prepend $dllsearchpath to PATH before prepending
467 $temp_rpath to $shlibpath_var; similar rationale as above.

519 * .gitignore: Ignore .xz files.
521 2010-09-13 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
523 doc: avoid long lines in input and output, indexing fixes.
524 * doc/libtool.texi (Linking libraries)
525 (Module loaders for libltdl): Manually line-wrap examples, to
527 (Libltdl interface, User defined module data)
528 (Module loaders for libltdl): Wrap long @deftypefun input lines
529 using trailing '@'. Use @deftypefun rather than @deftp where
530 appropriate, and add spaces in @deftypefun lines to fix the
531 index entries generated from these lines.
532 (Cheap tricks): Use @smallexample rather than @example, to avoid
535 docs: @file and @option markup fixes.
536 * doc/libtool.texi (Creating object files, Linking libraries)
537 (Linking executables, Link mode, Finish mode, Autoconf macros)
538 (Using Automake, Inter-library dependencies, Dlpreopening)
539 (Linking with dlopened modules, Finding the dlname)
540 (Libltdl interface, Test descriptions, Multiple dependencies):
541 Add @option where needed, replace @samp with @file as
544 2010-09-12 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
546 * .gitignore: Ignore *.obj files for MSVC (and w32 in general).
548 Adjust to moved auxiliary files and add compile.

551 * Makefile.maint (fetch): Also fetch the compile script.
553 2010-09-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
555 tests: avoid empty AT_DATA contents, for zsh.
556 * tests/libtoolize.at (libtoolize macro serial update)
557 (libtoolize config files serial update, LIBTOOLIZE_OPTIONS):
558 Do not create empty files with AT_DATA, the latter is documented
559 to require a final newline. Fixes testsuite failures with zsh
562 2010-09-12 Charles Wilson <libtool@cwilson.fastmail.fm>
564 When assigning $linklib value, honor [-all]-static[-libtool-libs]
566 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): When prefer_static_libs
567 and static library exists, ensure old_library name is used as $linklib.
568 Fixes failure on mingw when both static and shared libraries are
571 2010-09-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
573 tests: work around zsh use of $options variable.
574 * tests/getopt-m4sh.at: Rename $options to $opts, the former is
575 special for zsh 4.3.10.
577 Fix AC_NO_EXECUTABLES test failure on IRIX 6.5.
578 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [irix]: Cache result
579 of link check for -Wl,-exported_symbol.
580 * tests/no-executables.at (AC_NO_EXECUTABLES): Set
581 lt_cv_irix_exported_symbol, to avoid link check.
583 2010-09-12 Jürgen Reuter <juergen.reuter@physik.uni-freiburg.de> (tiny change)
584 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
586 Initial support for the NAG Fortran compiler on GNU/Linux.
587 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_COMPILER_PIC) [linux] <nagfor>:
588 New set of entries, for NAG Fortran 5.1 and 5.2.
591 2010-09-12 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
593 Fix getopt.m4sh to require Autoconf 2.62 or newer.
594 * libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh (m4_version_prereq): Require 2.62,
597 2010-09-11 Charles Wilson <libtool@cwilson.fastmail.fm>
599 Correct typo: $sharedlib_from_linklib_cmd missing '_cmd'
601 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_generate_dlsyms): Fix obvious
602 typo, $sharedlib_from_linklib_cmd missing '_cmd'.
604 2010-09-10 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
606 Convert file name to toolchain format when invoking $NM.
607 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_generate_dlsyms)
608 (func_win32_libid, func_cygming_gnu_implib_p)
609 (func_cygming_ms_implib_p): When using the name lister to find
610 symbols in files, convert the file names to a format appropriate
611 for the tool. Fixes testsuite issues in mdemo-static-make.test
612 and mdemo-make.test when doing a cross from Cygwin/Wine to MinGW
613 using MinGW native tools (a.k.a. a "faked" cross).
615 2010-09-09 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
617 Fix dependency tracking for MSYS/MinGW.
618 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_to_tool_file): Add lazy
619 argument which allows the user to specify conversions that are
621 (func_mode_compile): Don't convert source files on MSYS, as
622 MSYS does it for us. This fixes a regression introduced by
623 "Use func_to_tool_file instead of fix_srcfile_path".
624 Reported by Charles Wilson.
626 2010-09-08 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
628 Mention adjustment of naming of MSVC import libraries in NEWS.
629 * NEWS: Mention the change in import library naming on MSVC.
631 2010-09-07 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
633 Adjust naming of MSVC import libraries.
634 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_DYNAMIC_LINKER) [mingw, cygwin]
635 [pw32, cegcc] <cl*, library_names_spec>: Adjust naming of the
636 import library from foo-<major-version>.lib to foo.dll.lib, to
637 avoid clashes with the static library for unversioned libraries.
638 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS, _LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG) [mingw, cygwin, pw32]
639 [cegcc] <cl*, archive_expsym_cmds>: Explicitely name the import
640 library to match the above.
642 Fixup texi typo in previous.
643 * doc/libtool.texi (libtool script content) <postlink_cmds>:
644 Add missing 'code' command.
646 Convert POSIX file names to toolchain format for MSVC
647 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS, _LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG)
648 [cygwin, mingw, pw32, cegcc] <cl*, postlink_cmds>: Make
649 sure the -outputresource: file name for the manifest tool is
651 <cl*, archive_expsym_cmds>: Likewise for the MSVC command file
652 containing the exports and the output file name.
653 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Precalculate the
654 toolchain format of the output_objdir file name and store it in
655 the tool_output_objdir variable. Also replace any occurrence of
656 @TOOL_OUTPUT@ in postlink_cmds with the toolchain version of the
658 * doc/libtool.texi (libtool script content): Update description
659 of postlink_cmds to mention @TOOL_OUTPUT@.
661 2010-09-06 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
663 Use func_to_tool_file instead of fix_srcfile_path.
664 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_compile): Replace the
665 fix_srcfile_path hook with a call to func_to_tool_file.
666 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [cygwin,mingw,pw32]
667 [cegcc]: Drop fix_srcfile_path.
668 * doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents): Likewise.
669 * NEWS: Mention that fix_srcfile_path has been replaced.
671 Convert file names to toolchain format in $NM and $AR @files.
672 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): When listing
673 symbols and when creating archives using command files (or
674 response files), make sure that both the name of the command
675 file and the content are made up of file names in a format
676 appropriate for the tool. Fixes stresstest.at on MSYS when
677 run with low command line length.
679 Convert file names to toolchain format when linking.
680 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): When exporting
681 symbols and when linking using command files (or response
682 files), make sure that both the name of the command file and
683 the content are made up of file names in a format appropriate
684 for the tool. Fixes problems in stresstest.at on MSYS when run
685 with low command line length.
687 Add file name conversion from $build to toolchain.
688 * configure.ac: Ensure to_tool_file_cmd is available to Makefile.
689 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PATH_CONVERSION_FUNCTIONS): Add
690 cache variable lt_cv_to_tool_file_cmd that describes how to
691 convert file names from $build to toolchain format.
692 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_to_tool_file): New function
693 that utilizes the above.
694 * Makefile.am: Ensure to_tool_file_cmd is included in
695 TEST_ENVIRONMENT so that it is passed to (old testsuite) tests.
696 * testsuite.at: Ensure to_tool_file_cmd is passed as a variable
697 setting on the configure line for (new testsuite) tests.
698 * doc/libtool.texi (libtool script content): Update with
699 to_tool_file_cmd description.
700 (Cygwin to MinGW Cross): Update to mention lt_cv_to_tool_file_cmd.

704 tests: avoid spurious test failure due to library mode on HP-UX.
705 * tests/help.at (debug tracing): Use $lt_INSTALL not cp for
706 install mode, the latter will not overwrite an existing library
709 2010-09-01 Charles Wilson <libtool@cwilson.fastmail.fm>
711 Path conversion documentation
712 * doc/libtool.texi (Platform quirks): Add new subsections
713 'Cross compiling' and 'File name conversion'.
715 2010-09-01 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
717 tests: avoid spurious pic_flag test failure on HP-UX 10.20.
718 * tests/pic_flag.at (override pic_flag at configure time):
719 Match HP-UX 10.20 cc warning about unknown options, to skip
722 tests: fix localization test for GCC on HP-UX 11.00.
723 * tests/localization.at (localized compiler messages): Be sure
724 to switch the locale only for the actual compiler commands, so
725 we don't pick up warnings from helper tools such as diff which
726 may not have the locale installed.
728 Avoid leaking make flags into testsuite results.
729 * tests/defs.m4sh: Unset MFLAGS, MAKEFLAGS, MAKELEVEL, __MKLVL__
731 * tests/testsuite.at: Likewise.
732 Fixes warnings in test logs when the user uses 'make -jN check'
733 and inner $MAKE invocations can't connect to the job server.
734 Fixes spurious failures of configure-iface.at and of
735 demo-noinst-link tests with BSD and Tru64 make if the user uses
736 'make -k', as the exit status of the latter is not reliable.
738 2010-09-01 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
740 Remove announce-gen.m4sh and mailnotify.m4sh.
741 * libltdl/config/announce-gen.m4sh: Removed. This script has
742 no apparent connection to libtool functionality, and mostly
743 duplicates the better maintained gnulib announce-gen script.
744 * libltdl/config/mailnotify.sh: Removed. This script was used
745 by only clcommit.m4sh and announce-gen.m4sh, both of which are
747 * Makefile.maint (announce-gen, libltdl/config/mailnotify):
749 * bootstrap: Remove the mailnotify regeneration warning.
750 * HACKING (Release Procedure): Remove references to
752 (Alpha release note template, Full release note template):
753 Reinstated from before announce-gen was introduced.
755 Remove clcommit.m4sh.
756 * clcommit.m4sh: Removed. This script was written to help keep
757 ChangeLog and commit messages in sync when committing to CVS,
758 and is an anachronism now that Libtool uses git.
759 * Makefile.maint (commit): Target removed.
760 * bootstrap: Don't generate commit.
761 * HACKING (Release Procedure): Adjusted.
763 2010-08-31 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
765 archive-in-archive.at passes with Microsoft lib.
766 * tests/archive-in-archive.at: Tighten test to check that the desired
767 object files are indeed part of the archive. Microsoft lib still
768 passes, so remove the expected failure for that case.
770 Dump archiver output to the log when testing @file support.
771 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_AR): Redirect stdout to config.log
772 when testing for @file support.
773 Suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.
775 Silence archiver output when testing @file support.
776 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_AR): Redirect stdout and stderr
777 to the bit bucket when testing for @file support.
779 2010-08-31 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
781 Remove double `Generated from foo.m4sh' lines.
782 We now require a modern Autoconf to bootstrap libtool, which
783 will add the `Generated by ...' boiler-plate automatically,
784 so we can remove the hand-rolled @configure_input@
785 substitutions we had been doing:
786 * clcommit.m4sh, libtoolize.m4sh, tests/defs.sh,
787 libltdl/config/announce-gen.m4sh, libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh,
788 libltdl/config/mailnotify.m4sh: Remove @configure_input@.
789 * Makefile.am (edit): Remove configure_input substitution.
790 (libtoolize, libltdl/config/ltmain.sh, libltdl/m4/ltversion.m4)
791 (tests/defs): Don't set `$input' shell variable.
792 * Makefile.maint (announce_gen, libltdl/config/mailnotify)
795 2010-08-31 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
797 Extract the archive name from the .la file and use $AR (not ar).
798 * Makefile.am: Pass AR through to the testsuite.
799 * tests/archive-in-archive.at: Bump copyright year. Extract archive
800 name from the .la file instead of hardcoding the name, and allow
801 different archivers. Also clarify that the tested functionality is
804 2010-08-30 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
806 tests: skip -Wall -Werror with Tru64 cc in cwrapper test.
807 * tests/cwrapper.at (cwrapper for uninstalled executables):
808 Use a link test rather than a compile test to flesh out unknown
809 compiler flags starting with -W; Tru64/OSF1 cc will happily
810 accept `-Wall -Werror' as indication to pass flags on to
813 tests: avoid getopt-m4sh failures when autom4te is not available.
814 * tests/getopt-m4sh.at (_LT_AT_GETOPT_M4SH_SETUP):
815 Check $M4SH --version, skip on failure.
817 tests: mark 'syntax of .la files' as XFAIL, expose failure.
818 * tests/lalib-syntax.at (syntax of .la files): Assert that the
819 string returned by lt_dlerror after a failure is non-NULL, so
820 the failure shows up on systems other than Solaris. Mark test
822 Suggested by Bob Friesenhahn.
824 2010-08-30 Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
826 Simplify recent configure quoting portability workaround.
827 * configure.ac: Simplify setting of timestamp_string.
829 2010-08-30 Charles Wilson <libtool@cwilson.fastmail.fm>
831 Update path conversion warning messages
832 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_convert_file_check): Update
833 comments and warning message.
834 (func_convert_path_check): Update warning message.
836 2010-08-29 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
838 Fix typo when renaming path conversion functions.
839 * tests/testsuite.at: Ensure to_host_file_cmd is passed as a
840 variable setting on the configure line for (new testsuite) tests.
842 2010-08-29 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
844 Support GCC LTO on GNU/Linux.
845 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): Allow through
846 flags matching -O*, -flto*, -fwhopr, -fuse-linker-plugin.
847 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Drop symbols
848 starting with __gnu_lto.
849 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [linux] <archive_cmds, archive_expsyms_cmds>:
850 Add $pic_flag for GCC.
851 (_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG) [linux] <archive_cmds, archive_expsyms_cmds>:
853 (_LT_SYS_HIDDEN_LIBDEPS): Ignore files matching *.lto.o.
856 Disable GCC LTO for verbose library extraction.
857 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_SYS_HIDDEN_LIBDEPS): Temporarily
858 append -fno-lto or -fno-whopr to CFLAGS if CC or CFLAGS (which
859 are substituted with the per-language variables here) contain
860 -flto or match -fwhopr*, respectively.
862 Save and restore CFLAGS properly inside libtool.m4 macros.
863 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Use different
864 temporary variables for saved and restored values of $LIBS,
865 $CFLAGS, to avoid overlap with the *_CONFIG macros.
866 (_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG, _LT_LANG_F77_CONFIG, _LT_LANG_FC_CONFIG)
867 (_LT_LANG_GCJ_CONFIG, _LT_LANG_RC_CONFIG): Also save and restore
868 $CFLAGS, and override it with per-language flags, so that in
869 case output_verbose_link_cmd uses $CFLAGS, the right flags are
872 Work around yet another shell quoting portability issue.
873 * configure.ac: Avoid nonportable quoted alternate variable
874 value in unquoted here document, so Solaris 10 sh and Tru64
875 ksh do not print spurious extra quotes.
877 Silence order-only configure test for AIX make.
878 * configure.ac: Also drop standard output, for AIX 5.1 make.
880 2010-08-28 Charles Wilson <libtool@cwilson.fastmail.fm>
882 Minor sysroot fixups.
883 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_WITH_SYSROOT): Fix typo.
884 * tests/sysroot.at: Search also for crt0.o to accommodate cygwin.
886 2010-08-28 Charles Wilson <libtool@cwilson.fastmail.fm>
888 [cygwin|mingw|cross-compile]: Path conversion support.
889 * configure.ac: Ensure to_host_file_cmd is available to Makefile.
890 * TODO: Document QoI issue with file name conversion functions.
891 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PATH_CONVERSION_FUNCTIONS): New function
892 sets libtool variable $to_host_file_cmd, and employs cache.
893 (_LT_SETUP): Require it.
894 * tests/testsuite.at: Ensure to_host_file_cmd is passed as a
895 variable setting on the configure line for (new testsuite) tests.
896 * Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Ensure to_host_file_cmd is
897 included so that it is passed to (old testsuite) tests.
898 * libltdl/config/general.m4sh: Define $lt_sed_naive_backslashify here.
899 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh ($to_host_file_cmd, $to_host_path_cmd):
901 (func_cygpath): New function.
902 (func_init_to_host_path_cmd): New function.
903 (func_to_host_path): Renamed to...
904 (func_to_host_file): Refactored to... (now uses $to_host_file_cmd).

913 (func_convert_file_nix_to_cygwin): New function.
914 (func_to_host_pathlist): Renamed to...
915 (func_to_host_path): Refactored to... (now uses $to_host_path_cmd
916 and func_init_to_host_path_cmd).
917 (func_convert_path_check): Here. New function.
918 (func_convert_path_front_back_pathsep): Here. New function.

927 2010-08-28 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
929 Fix symlist variable path to use _WIN32 instead of __WINDOWS__.
930 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh, libltdl/libltdl/lt_system.h,
931 libltdl/m4/libtool.m4, tests/demo/foo.h, tests/pdemo/foo.h:
932 Change __WINDOWS__ to _WIN32.
933 Report by Charles Wilson.
935 Add $pic_flag to archive_cmds and archive_expsym_cmds.
936 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS)
937 <archive_cmds, archive_expsym_cmds>
938 [GNU ld, netbsd]: Add $pic_flag if ELF.
939 [GNU ld, solaris]: Likewise.
940 [GNU ld, default case]: Likewise.
941 [!GNU ld, freebsd, dragonfly]: Add $pic_flag.
942 [!GNU ld, GCC, hpux9]: Add $pic_flag.
943 [!GNU ld, GCC, hpux10]: Replace -fPIC with $pic_flag
944 [!GNU ld, GCC, hpux11, !hppa*64]: Replace -fPIC with $pic_flag.
945 [!GNU ld, GCC, irix5, irix6, nonstopux]: Add $pic_flag.
946 [!GNU ld, GCC, osf4, osf5]: Likewise.
947 [!GNU ld, GCC, solaris]: Likewise.
948 (_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG) <archive_cmds, archive_expsym_cmds>
949 [hpux9]: Add $pic_flag if $GXX.
950 [hpux10, hpux11, !hppa*64]: Replace -fPIC with $pic_flag.
951 [irix5, irix6]: Add $pic_flag if $GXX.
952 [osf4, osf5]: Likewise.
953 [solaris]: Add $pic_flag if $GXX and not GCC 2.7.
955 Uniform const'ness of symlist variable lt_preloaded_symbols.
956 On some systems, lt_preloaded_symbols may not be declared
957 const due to relocation issues. C99 requires qualification to
958 match for compatible declarations, so ensure we declare
959 const'ness in the same way everywhere; link-time optimization
960 may otherwise rightfully complain about inconsistencies.
961 Since ltdl.h may not depend upon config.h, rely on system
962 defines for choosing const'ness.
964 * doc/libtool.texi (Dlpreopening): Document this issue.
965 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_generate_dlsyms):
966 [__WINDOWS__, __CYGWIN__, _WIN32_WCE]: Define LT_DLSYM_CONST
967 according to system defines. Remove old shell cruft. Use
968 LT_DLSYM_CONST for lt_${my_prefix}_LTX_preloaded_symbols.
969 * libltdl/libltdl/lt_system.h (LT_DLSYM_CONST): Likewise,
970 define LT_DLSYM_CONST according to system defines.
971 * tests/demo/foo.h (LT_DLSYM_CONST): Likewise.
972 * tests/pdemo/foo.h (LT_DLSYM_CONST): Likewise.
973 * tests/demo/dlmain.c (lt_dlsymlist): Use LT_DLSYM_CONST.
974 * tests/pdemo/longer_file_name_dlmain.c (lt_dlsymlist):
976 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS): Likewise
977 for configure test code.

1470 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_generate_dlsyms) [cygwin|mingw]:
1471 Obtain DLL name corresponding to import library by using value
1472 stored in unique variable libfile_$(transliterated implib name).
1473 If that fails, use $sharedlib_from_linklib_cmd to extract DLL
1474 name from import library directly. Also, properly extract dlsyms
1475 from the import library.
1476 (func_mode_link) [cygwin|mingw]: Prefer to dlpreopen DLLs
1477 over static libs when both are available. When dlpreopening
1478 DLLs, use linklib (that is, import lib) as dlpreopen file,
1479 rather than DLL. Store name of associated la file in
1480 unique variable libfile_$(transliterated implib name)
1482 (func_win32_libid): Accomodate pei-i386 import libs

1490 expressions for lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_to_c_name_address and
1491 lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_to_c_name_address_lib_prefix
1492 as trailing space after module name is optional.
1493 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [cygwin|mingw][C++]:
1494 Set exclude_expsyms correctly for $host. Simplify regular
1495 expression in export_symbols_cmds.
1496 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) [cygwin|mingw|pw32][C]: Set exclude_expsyms
1497 correctly for $host. Enable export_symbols_cmds to identify
1498 DATA exports by _nm_ prefix.
1499 (_LT_CHECK_SHAREDLIB_FROM_LINKLIB): New macro sets
1500 sharedlib_from_linklib_cmd variable.

1510 Support for response files with $NM.
1511 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CMD_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS)
1512 <nm_file_list_spec>: New tag variable. Set it to '@' if input
1513 files can be passed to $NM in a file named with the '@' option.
1514 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): When
1515 nm_file_list_spec is nonempty, use it to avoid skipped_export.
1516 * doc/libtool.texi (libtool script contents): Document
1519 2010-07-04 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1521 Fix ccache test for MSVC.
1522 * tests/static.at (ccache -all-static): Ignore compiler stderr.
1523 Reported by Peter Rosin.
1525 2010-07-03 Charles Wilson <libtool@cwilson.fastmail.fm>
1527 Avoid false failures caused by filesystem interaction

1552 2010-06-28 Peter Rosin <peda@lysator.liu.se>
1554 For MSVC, embed the manifest as a resource in the executable.
1555 Fixes a lot of testsuite failures with MSVC 2003 (v8.0) and
1556 above (and perhaps also MSVC .Net) related to running programs
1557 that have been moved (e.g. installed) without their manifests
1558 also having been moved.
1559 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PATH_MANIFEST_TOOL): New macro
1560 that locates the Manifest Tool (mt) and verifies that it is
1561 indeed the manifest tool. The result is stored in the new
1562 variable MANIFEST_TOOL.
1563 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS) <postlink_cmds>: New tag variable.
1564 [ cygwin, mingw, cegcc ] <cl*>: Embed the manifest file as a
1565 resource. Make sure the embedding work regardless of if the
1566 @OUTPUT@ file name includes a trailing $EXEEXT.
1567 (_LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Likewise.
1568 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS, _LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG): Require the above
1569 _LT_PATH_MANIFEST_TOOL.
1570 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_mode_link): After linking

1578 and -o prog$EXEEXT works.
1579 * Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Update.
1580 (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Propagate $(MANIFEST_TOOL) to the
1582 * NEWS: Add note of the new MANIFEST_TOOL environment variable.

1588 (_LT_LINKER_SHLIBS, _LT_LANG_CXX_CONFIG) [mingw, cygwin]: Add
1589 support for the Microsoft C/C++ Compiler (cl) relying on help
1590 from the compile script in Automake.
1591 * NEWS: Add note of the above.
1593 2010-07-01 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
1595 Skip `enhanced shell option appending' test when not available.
1596 * tests/getopt-m4sh.at [enhanced shell option appending]:
1597 _LT_AT_XSI_FUNC_EXTRACT will not be able to find the enhanced
1598 libtool func_append function if the replacement wasn't substituted
1599 by configure, since the decorator comments will be different - in
1600 that case simply skip the test.
1602 2010-06-30 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
1604 Add func_append test cases for smart and retarded implementations.
1605 * tests/getopt-m4sh.at (_LT_AT_FALLBACK_FUNC_EXTRACT): New
1606 macro to extract a fallback function implementation from
1608 [option appending]: Use it for a test of the fallback
1609 implementation of func_append.

1621 * libtool/config/getopt.m4sh (func_split_short_opt): Fix
1622 the function comment.
1624 Use a real XSI compliant func_split_short_opt substitution.
1625 * libtool/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_CHECK_SHELL_FEATURES): Remove
1626 test ${foo:n:m} substrings, instead adding a ${foo%??} check
1627 to the existing XSI tests.
1628 (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Remove the ${foo:n:m} based
1629 func_split_short_opt substitution in favour of a properly
1630 XSI compliant substitution.
1631 Suggested by Paolo Bonzini.
1633 2010-06-28 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
1635 Add func_append_quoted and do inline func_append substitutions.
1636 * libtool/config/ltmain.m4sh: Replace all occurrences of
1637 `foo="$foo bar"' with func_append. No decorator comment was
1638 added since /func_append [a-zA-Z0-9_]* "/ is already an
1639 excellent match regexp, and additional comments would only
1641 (func_append_quoted): New function that quotes a value with
1642 func_quote_for_eval before appending it. To avoid quoting the
1643 whitespace in the passed value, a single whitespace is added
1644 automatically. Changed callers where possible.
1645 * libtool/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Perform a
1646 `+=' implementation substitution for func_append_quoted. More
1647 importantly, systematically replace matching func_append calls
1648 with inline `+=' when supported (for maximum speed), and
1649 longhand `foo="$foo bar"' otherwise to avoid the function
1652 Add an XSI replacement for func_split_short_opt, with test cases.
1653 * libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh (m4go_shortnoargs): Remove 'v' now
1654 that getopt.m4sh doesn't steal that letter for the --version
1656 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (M4SH_GETOPTS): We can now use 'v'
1657 as a short option for '--verbose'.
1658 * libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh (m4go_printopts): Add back in the
1659 leading '-' for remaining non-argument short options.
1660 (func_split_short_opt): Use the correct sed script variable.

1673 Add missing case branch terminators.
1674 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh: Fixed everal case branches with
1675 missing ';;' terminators.
1677 Use TAB-SPACE in preference to SPACE-TAB.
1678 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_REPLACE): Some editors
1679 might optimise away the SPACE in SPACE-TAB sequences, so use
1680 TAB-SPACE just in case.
1681 Reported by Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1683 Amend a missed opt_mode rename instance in ltmain.m4sh.
1684 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh <mode>: Rename to opt_mode.
1686 Fix portability regressions in today's earlier changeset.
1687 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_REPLACE): `sed -i' is not
1688 portable; use `mv -f ...|| cp -f ...' instead.
1689 Add an initial backslash to sed `c' substitutions with leading
1690 whitespace, so that indentation is not removed by some non-POSIX
1691 compliant sed implementations.
1692 (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Display a diagnostic warning message if
1693 one or more XSI function replacements failed.
1695 getopt.m4sh generated libtool option parser, and XSI improvements.
1696 * libltdl/m4/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Moved portable
1697 shell versions of various utility functions from here...
1698 * libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh (func_split_long_opt): ...to here...

1700 (func_dirname_and_basename, func_strip_name): ...here...
1701 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh (func_append, func_arith, func_len)
1702 (func_lo2o, func_xform): ...and here.
1703 * libltdl/config/libtool.m4 (_LT_PROG_XSI_REPLACE): New macro that
1704 expands into a sed command for replacing the contents of a
1705 suitably decorated shell function with an alternate XSI
1707 (_LT_PROG_XSI_SHELLFNS): Use it to replace the portable shell
1708 versions of the functions above with equivalent XSI
1709 implementations that avoid unnecessary forks if the host shell
1711 * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh: Replace hand written shell code
1712 with a call to M4SH_GETOPTS. Rename some option variables in
1713 the client code to match the generated option parser settings.
1714 * libltdl/config/general.m4sh (func_echo, func_error)
1715 (func_warning): Use $opt_mode instead of obsoleted $mode in
1717 * libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh (m4_version_prereq): This file
1718 requires m4sugar.m4 from Autoconf-2.61 or newer.
1720 2010-06-24 Charles Wilson <libtool@cwilson.fastmail.fm>
1722 [cygwin] Refactor C++ exception handling for Win32 correctness
1723 * tests/exception.at (common.h): New file, refactored from

1737 linking module.la and main. Add command to install libcommon.la.
1739 2010-06-21 Gary V. Vaughan <gary@gnu.org>
1741 Ensure getopts.m4sh is compatible with Autoconf-2.61 and newer.
1742 * libltdl/config/getopt.m4sh (m4_chomp): Ensure this macro is
1743 implemented even if Autoconf's m4sugar.m4 doesn't provide it.
1744 (m4go_expand): New macro based on Autoconf-2.64 m4_expand. Use
1745 it everywhere incase m4sugar.m4 doesn't have an implementation.
1746 (m4_ifnblank): Replace all uses with m4_ifval, which was
1747 available long before m4_ifnblank was introduced.

1756 Add comment for exception handling module unloading issue.
1757 * tests/exceptions.at (C++ exception handling): Add comment
1760 Fix flags test failure when ld is used as linker.
1761 * tests/flags.at (passing CC flags through libtool): When $LD
1762 is used for linking libraries, ensure flags passed with `-Wc,'
1763 are not passed through to $LD, but flags passed with `-Wl,' use
1764 $wl when linking programs. Fixed testsuite failure on HP-UX
1767 2010-06-19 Charles Wilson <libtool@cwilson.fastmail.fm>
1769 [cygwin] Fix segfault in C++ exception handling test
1770 * tests/exceptions.at (main.cpp:exceptions_in_module):
1771 Move dlclose outside catch block; otherwise __cxa_end_catch
1772 (part of the cygwin g++ ABI) accesses pointers to data inside
1773 unloaded DLL. This is a platform ABI-specific bug, but is
1774 likely common to many platforms' g++ and/or other C++
1777 2010-06-19 Ralf Wildenhues <Ralf.Wildenhues@gmx.de>
1779 Fix srcdir computation for manual runs of old tests.

1799 Save result, and allow override, through cache variable
1800 lt_cv_prog_compiler_pic{,_CXX,_F77,_FC}. The cache variable
1801 needs to contain an eventual -DPIC.
1802 * tests/pic_flag.at (override pic_flag at configure time):
1804 * Makefile.am (TESTSUITE_AT): Update.
1805 * NEWS, THANKS: Update.

1813 documented to allow being called with wrapper executables.
1815 Fix bootstrap script to cope with changed AC_INIT arguments.
1816 * bootstrap: When extracting PACKAGE and VERSION from AC_INIT
1817 arguments, be sure to remove a 'GNU ' prefix and lowercase the
1818 package name for PACKAGE. Also set PACKAGE_NAME and PACKAGE_URL

1879 Print Libtool project URL in program --help output.
1880 * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Set PACKAGE argument to `GNU Libtool',
1881 so Autoconf knows this is GNU software. For Autoconf < 2.64,
1882 if AC_PACKAGE_URL is not defined, substitute PACKAGE_URL.
1883 * Makefile.am (edit): Substitute PACKAGE_URL.
1884 ($(srcdir)/tests/package.m4): Also depend on Makefile.am.

1897 * libltdl/ltdl.c (parse_dotla_file) [__WINDOWS__]: Read the
1898 libdir entry in the .la file, but accept it only if it is not
1899 a unix-style absolute name.
1900 * tests/ltdl-libdir.at: New test that checks if ltdl finds an
1901 installed module via the libdir variable in the .la file. On
1902 MinGW, use a Windows-style libdir name including drive spec.
1903 * Makefile.am: Add above.
1905 2010-06-11 Peter O'Gorman <peter@pogma.com>
1907 Skip bindir install test if we're not building shared.

1914 Use getopt.m4sh to generate libtoolize option parser.
1915 * libtoolize.m4sh: Replace hand written shell code with a
1916 call to M4SH_GETOPTS. Move some premature initialization
1917 from the preamble to the main part of the script. Exit with
1918 an error on spurious additional non-option arguments.
