Re: autotools selects m2c to compile mod files

[Martin Kalbfuß]

asking google for "gnu-make m2c" gave me the needed answers. Now my
files look like:

src/Makefile.am #######################################################

moddir=/home/martin/opt/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.2/gm2

noinst_LIBRARIES = libVectorMath.a

libVectorMath_a_SOURCES =  VectorMath.mod
libVectorMath_a_SOURCES += SVectorIO.mod 

EXTRA_libVectorMath_a_SOURCES = force_c_compiler_defaults.c

mod_HEADERS =  VectorMath.def
mod_HEADERS += SVectorIO.def

mod_DATA    =  VectorMath.o
mod_DATA    += SVectorIO.o
mod_DATA    += VectorMath.mod
mod_DATA    += SVectorIO.mod


autoconf.ac ###########################################################

#                                               -*- Autoconf -*-
# Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script.

   M2FLAGS="-c -fiso"
   AC_SUBST([M2FLAGS])

   AC_SUBST([SUFFIXES])
fi

AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile
                 src/Makefile

AC_OUTPUT


It still archives the objects and I have to put the ".a" at the end of
the library name.

Any ideas how to optimize this?
