Hello,
I have a fortran package but in some case I also need a C compiler to detect
some C stuff to link with C libraries when there is no equivalent fortran
library. I don't want a missing C compiler to lead to a configure failure,
however. It is also an automake based package. The following doesn't work,
if test $use_c_libraries_if_fortran_not_found = yes; then
AC_PROG_CC
.....test for C libraries
fi
I get
configure: error: conditional "AMDEP" was never defined.
Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally.
There is no possibility of doing something conditionnaly on AC_PROG_CC
failing, either, like what can be done with most other macros:
AC_PROG_CC(,[.....test for C libraries], [c_compiler_found=no])
I think that one of those possibility (both?) should be available, and I
think I favor AC_PROG_CC doing something when failing.
By chance are you aware of a possible workaround?
Pat
