autoconf: Obsolete config.status Use
1
1 18.1 Obsolete `config.status' Invocation
1 ========================================
1
1 `config.status' now supports arguments to specify the files to
1 instantiate; see ⇒config.status Invocation, for more details.
1 Before, environment variables had to be used.
1
1 -- Variable: CONFIG_COMMANDS
1 The tags of the commands to execute. The default is the arguments
1 given to `AC_OUTPUT' and `AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS' in `configure.ac'.
1
1 -- Variable: CONFIG_FILES
1 The files in which to perform `@VARIABLE@' substitutions. The
1 default is the arguments given to `AC_OUTPUT' and
1 `AC_CONFIG_FILES' in `configure.ac'.
1
1 -- Variable: CONFIG_HEADERS
1 The files in which to substitute C `#define' statements. The
1 default is the arguments given to `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS'; if that
1 macro was not called, `config.status' ignores this variable.
1
1 -- Variable: CONFIG_LINKS
1 The symbolic links to establish. The default is the arguments
1 given to `AC_CONFIG_LINKS'; if that macro was not called,
1 `config.status' ignores this variable.
1
1 In ⇒config.status Invocation, using this old interface, the
1 example would be:
1
1 config.h: stamp-h
1 stamp-h: config.h.in config.status
1 CONFIG_COMMANDS= CONFIG_LINKS= CONFIG_FILES= \
1 CONFIG_HEADERS=config.h ./config.status
1 echo > stamp-h
1
1 Makefile: Makefile.in config.status
1 CONFIG_COMMANDS= CONFIG_LINKS= CONFIG_HEADERS= \
1 CONFIG_FILES=Makefile ./config.status
1
1 (If `configure.ac' does not call `AC_CONFIG_HEADERS', there is no need
1 to set `CONFIG_HEADERS' in the `make' rules. Equally for
1 `CONFIG_COMMANDS', etc.)
