# Local Autoconf Macros
#=========================================================================
# This file contains the macros for the Modular C++ Build System and
# additional autoconf macros which developers can use in their
# configure.ac scripts. Please read the documentation in
# 'mcppbs-doc.txt' for more details on how the Modular C++ Build System
# works. The documenation for each macro should include information
# about the author, date, and copyright.

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
# MCPPBS_PROG_INSTALL
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
# This macro will add an --enable-stow command line option to the
# configure script. When enabled, this macro will first check to see if
# the stow program is available and if so it will set the $stow shell
# variable to the binary name and the $enable_stow shell variable to
# "yes". These variables can be used in a makefile to conditionally use
# stow for installation. 
#
# This macro uses two environment variables to help setup default stow
# locations. The $STOW_PREFIX is used for stowing native built packages.
# The packages are staged in $STOW_PREFIX/pkgs and then symlinks are
# created from within $STOW_PREFIX into the pkgs subdirectory. If you
# only do native builds then this is all you need to set. If you don't
# set $STOW_PREFIX then the default is just the normal default prefix
# which is almost always /usr/local.
#
# For non-native builds we probably want to install the packages in a
# different location which includes the host architecture name as part
# of the prefix. For these kind of builds, we can specify the $STOW_ROOT
# environment variable and the effective prefix will be
# $STOW_ROOT/${host_alias} where ${host_alias} is specified on the
# configure command line with "--host".
#
# Here is an example setup:
#
#  STOW_ROOT="$HOME/install"
#  STOW_ARCH="i386-macosx10.4"
#  STOW_PREFIX="${STOW_ROOT}/${STOW_ARCH}"

# MCPPBS_SUBPROJECTS([ sproj1, sproj2, ... ])
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The developer should call this macro with a list of the subprojects
# which make up this project. One should order the list such that any
# given subproject only depends on subprojects listed before it. The
# subproject names can also include an * suffix which indicates that
# this is an optional subproject. Optional subprojects are only included
# as part of the project build if enabled on the configure command line
# with a --enable-<subproject> flag. The user can also specify that all
# optional subprojects should be included in the build with the
# --enable-optional-subprojects flag.
#
# Subproject names can also include a ** suffix which indicates that it
# is an optional subproject, but there is a group with the same name.
# Thus the --enable-<sproj> command line option will enable not just the
# subproject sproj but all of the subprojects which are in the group.
# There is no error checking to make sure that if you use the ** suffix
# you actually define a group so be careful.
#
# Both required and optional subprojects should have a 'subproject.ac'
# file. The script's filename should be the abbreivated subproject name
# (assuming the subproject name is sproj then we would use 'sproj.ac')
# The MCPPBS_SUBPROJECTS macro includes the 'subproject.ac' files for
# enabled subprojects. Whitespace and newlines are allowed within the
# list.

# This macro creates a subproject group with the given group-name. When
# a user specifies --enable-<group-name> the listed subprojects will be
# enabled. Groups can have the same name as a subproject and in that
# case whenever a user specifies --enable-<subproject> the subprojects
# listed in the corresponding group will also be enabled. Groups are
# useful for specifying related subprojects which are usually enabled
# together, as well as for specifying that a specific optional
# subproject has dependencies on other optional subprojects.
