The problem is this. I want to run sub-configure scripts before the main one. 
But when I put
AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS in main configure.ac script it configure the main one first 
and then the
sub projects. Is there any way to run configure first before the main one. 
Because the main 
project depends on sub projects.


Thanks
