NAME
acinclude - manual page for ac-archive 0.5.39
SYNOPSIS
acinclude [OPTIONS] ...
DESCRIPTION
Generate `acinclude.m4' by scanning `configure.ac' or `configure.in'
--acdir=DIR
directory holding subdirectories with config files
--help print this help, then exit
-I DIR
add directory to superdir search list for .m4 files
. add current directory as superdir to searchlist which is the default if no -I option was given.
--output=FILE
put output in FILE (default acinclude.m4)
--print-ac-dir
print name of directory with subdirs holding m4 files
--verbose
don't be silent
--version
print version number, then exit
Note that unlike aclocal the subdirectories (!!) of the acdir-path are searched for files - the default will find locals as ./*/*.m4
and always search for ac-macros installed as share/aclocal/*/*.m4 which may include the macros from ac-archive or from packages that
chose to install multiple files into a subdirectory of share/aclocal. The tool will warn at unresolved symbols starting with AX_
just as the original aclocal program did warn at unresolved macros with AC_.
