hi Duncan (et al.),
as you are talking about configure.ac enhancements I'd like
to propose some additional changes that would greatly help
users:
among autoconf based packages it is pretty common these days
to provide <package>-config scripts that let you query required
preprocessor/compiler/linker flags to be used when using
these packages.
This would be particularly helpful with omniORB, as there are
a lot of flags to be set with respect to platform, os, etc.
Can't configure generate a script omniORB-config which I can
call like
omniORB-config --cppflags
omniORB-config --cxxflags
omniORB-config --libs
etc. ?
If there is interest, I'd be happy to work on such a feature...
Regards,
Stefan
