Thanks for the email. I am using Red Hat 8 which means
automake 1.6 and autoconf 2.53. I spent some time
creating a very *simple* example like you requested.
I'd be very grateful if you looked at it....
In order to show you my problem with _DEPENDENCIES I
intentionally put the executable in src/exec and
the library stuff in src. Since the executable in
src/exec cannot be built without the library in src
being built *first*, I was hoping build process would
realize this and adjust accordingly. It didn't and
I got error message I want to fix.
Here are the contents of 2 Makefile.am's that need to be fixed.....
src/Makefile.am:
-----------------------------------------
noinst_LIBRARIES = libhelperfunctions.a
libhelperfunctions_a_SOURCES = printmessage1.c
printmessage1.h
printmessage2.c
printmessage2.h
printmessage3.c
printmessage3.h
SUBDIRS = exec
src/exec/Makefile.am
-----------------------------------------
bin_PROGRAMS = main
main_SOURCES = main.c
main_LDADD = -lhelperfunctions -lpthread -lm
main_DEPENDENCIES = ../libhelperfunctions.a
main_LDFLAGS = -L ../
INCLUDES = -I ../
Here is what happens when I type make at top of source tree
(BTW: $(top_srcdir) = /home/seberino/MAIN/Wb/efe2)....
Making all in src
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/seberino/MAIN/Wb/efe2/src'
Making all in exec
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/seberino/MAIN/Wb/efe2/src/exec'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `../libhelperfunctions.a', needed by
`main'. Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/seberino/MAIN/Wb/efe2/src/exec'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/seberino/MAIN/Wb/efe2/src'

Here is a listing of entire source tree before doing anything...

Why don't you use myprogram_LDADD = libmylibrary.a ?
I'm not able to reproduce your problem. Can you tell us what version
of automake you're running and show us a minimal example that
shows the problem?
