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!

NAME
autoreconf - Update generated configuration files SYNOPSIS
autoreconf [OPTION] ... [CONFIGURE-AC or DIRECTORY] ... DESCRIPTION
Run `autoconf' (and `autoheader', `aclocal', `automake', `autopoint' (formerly `gettextize'), and `libtoolize' where appropriate) repeat- edly to remake the GNU Build System files in the DIRECTORIES or the directory trees driven by CONFIGURE-AC (defaulting to `.'). By default, it only remakes those files that are older than their predecessors. If you install new versions of the GNU Build System, run- ning `autoreconf' remakes all of the files by giving it the `--force' option. 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 -f, --force consider all files obsolete -i, --install copy missing auxiliary files -s, --symlink with -i, install symbolic links instead of copies -m, --make when applicable, re-run ./configure && make -W, --warnings=CATEGORY report the warnings falling in CATEGORY [syntax] Warning categories include: `cross' cross compilation issues `gnu' GNU coding standards (default in gnu and gnits modes) `obsolete' obsolete features or constructions `override' user redefinitions of Automake rules or variables `portability' portability issues `syntax' dubious syntactic constructs (default) `unsupported' unsupported or incomplete features (default) `all' all the warnings `no-CATEGORY' turn off warnings in CATEGORY `none' turn off all the warnings `error' treat warnings as errors The environment variable `WARNINGS' is honored. Some subtools might support other warning types, using `all' is encouraged. Library directories: -B, --prepend-include=DIR prepend directory DIR to search path -I, --include=DIR append directory DIR to search path The environment variables AUTOCONF, AUTOHEADER, AUTOMAKE, ACLOCAL, AUTOPOINT, LIBTOOLIZE are honored.
