* AX_SYS_LARGEFILE_SENSITIVE: on x64 targets some largefile tests aren't made ↵Guido U. Draheim2010-02-021-0/+2

* Assigned all macros a unique serial number.Peter Simons2010-01-251-0/+5
| | | | | | | The serial number corresponds to the number of commits that have modified the macro in the Archive's Git repository. Refer to http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool//manual/automake/Serials.html to find out why these numbers are useful.

* AX_CHECK_ICU: added support for icu-specific CPPFLAGSNeil Mayhew2009-12-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This macro uses the icu-config utility which treats CPPFLAGS separately from CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS. Clients should be able to obtain the value of CPPFLAGS, which is not currently possible. This patch fixes that. Note that this behavior is slightly different from PKG_CHECK_MODULES, since the underlying pkg-config doesn't distinguish between CFLAGS and CPPFLAGS. Using CFLAGS instead of CPPFLAGS with icu-config leads to problems, such as header files not found, and compilation errors since icu has its own slightly quirky ideas about what kind of strict warnings should be used, even though these are not required for using the ICU headers. Clients should typically use ICU_CPPFLAGS rather than ICU_CFLAGS or ICU_CXXFLAGS if they just want to be able to find headers.

* AX_CXX_HELPFUL_TERMINATE_HANDLER: initial versionPeter Simons2009-12-171-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Submitted by Kevin Locke in <https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/index.php?7005>: | As a compliment (or possibly replacement) to the current | AX_CXX_VERBOSE_TERMINATE_HANDLER macro, I present the | AX_CXX_HELPFUL_TERMINATE_HANDLER macro. Rather than specifically looking for | the GNU libstdc++ verbose_terminate_handler, this macro uses a test program | which throws an uncaught exception then checks if the output contains | information about the exception. This way it can detect helpful terminate | handlers other than the current one provided with GNU libstdc++. | | The design of this macro is not perfect. Most importantly, the logic for | capturing and testing the output of the test program is not very elegant. I | had first attempted to check for output from within the test program (by | redirecting std::cerr, capturing SIGABRT, etc.) but it was excessively ugly | and not very portable. The result is that the logic in the macro itself is a | little more awkward so that the test program is trivial. I think it was a | good trade, but feedback is welcome.
