using automake and autoconf with C++
hi,
I have written the Makefile.am and autoconf.ac files and am looking to build my project by providing the following commands:
$autoreconf -f -i -m
$./configure
both of the above work fine, but when I give the make command, I get the following error:
Code:
make all-am
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/BA/test'
depbase='echo test.o | sed 's|[^/]*$|.deps/&|;s|\.o$||'';\    
g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -g -O2 -MT test.o -MD -MP -MF $depbase.Tpo -c -o test.o test.cpp &&\    
mv -f $depbase.Tpo $depbase.Po
g++ -g -O2 -o test.exe test.o
make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'autogen.sh', needed by 'all-am'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/BA/test'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Can anyone please help me with fixing this error. thanks!

AUTOCONF(1)							   User Commands						       AUTOCONF(1)

NAME

       autoconf - Generate configuration scripts

SYNOPSIS

       autoconf [OPTION] ... [TEMPLATE-FILE]

DESCRIPTION

       Generate a configuration script from a TEMPLATE-FILE if given, or `configure.ac' if present, or else `configure.in'.  Output is sent to the
       standard output if TEMPLATE-FILE is given, else into `configure'.

   Operation modes:
       -h, --help
	      print this help, then exit

       -V, --version
	      print version number, then exit

       -v, --verbose
	      verbosely report processing

       -d, --debug
	      don't remove temporary files

       -o, --output=FILE
	      save output in FILE (stdout is the default)

       -W, --warnings=CATEGORY
	      report the warnings falling in CATEGORY [syntax]

   Warning categories include:
       `cross'
	      cross compilation issues

       `obsolete'
	      obsolete constructs

       `syntax'
	      dubious syntactic constructs

       `all'  all the warnings

       `no-CATEGORY'
	      turn off the warnings on CATEGORY

       `none' turn off all the warnings

       `error'
	      warnings are error

       The environment variable `WARNINGS' is honored.

   Library directories:
       -A, --autoconf-dir=ACDIR
	      Autoconf's macro files location (rarely needed)

       -l, --localdir=DIR
	      location of the `aclocal.m4' file

   Tracing:
       -t, --trace=MACRO
	      report the list of calls to MACRO

       -i, --initialization
	      also trace Autoconf's initialization process

       In tracing mode, no configuration script is created.
