The autoxt package provides Autoconf and Automake support for packages
constructed with the XT toolset. The package provides the
autoxt tool
which should be run as part of the Autoconf/Automake bootstrapping process,
prior to running
autoconf. A typical
bootstrap script looks like:
#! /bin/sh
autoxt
autoreconf -if
The toplevel
Makefile.am should declare:
ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I .
Autoconf
Autoxt installs a set of m4 macros
autoxt.m4 with support for
package configuration switches. By just including the macro call
XT_USE_XT_PACKAGES a
configure.ac file can be parameterized with
switches for all the StrategoXT packages:
AC_INIT([java-front],[0.6],[stratego-bugs@cs.uu.nl])
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
XT_USE_XT_PACKAGES
XT_PKG_ATERM
XT_PKG_SDF
XT_PKG_STRATEGOXT
AC_PROG_CC
AC_PROG_INSTALL
AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile syn/Makefile])
AC_OUTPUT
Automake
Furthermore, autoxt installs
Makefile.xt, a collection of automake
rules for compiling Stratego programs and applying other XT tools,
such as signature generation. Using this makefile, a makefile
reduces to a declaration of programs to be compiled. The makefile
automatically takes care of distributing the generated C code. The
specification will only be compiled when it is newer than the C
code. This means that packages using autoxt can be built using only
the Stratego Run-Time System (srts).
