NAME¶

mm-common-prepare - Prepare a C++ binding module to use mm-common and Autotools

SYNOPSIS¶

mm-common-prepare [OPTION]... [SOURCE-DIR]

DESCRIPTION¶

Run mm-common-prepare to copy the mm-common build support files into the source tree of a C++ binding module. The exact location these files will be copied to can be influenced through special macros in the configure.ac file.

AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([AUX-DIR])

The Automake include files are placed into the AUX-DIR subdirectory of the top-level source directory. If AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR is not specified, the files are placed at the top-level of the module's source tree.

MM_CONFIG_DOCTOOL_DIR([DOCTOOL-DIR])

If the MM_CONFIG_DOCTOOL_DIR macro is called with an explicit DOCTOOL-DIR argument, the common utilities required for generating and installing the reference documentation of a C++ binding module will be copied to the named subdirectory. If MM_CONFIG_DOCTOOL_DIR is not used or does not specify a DOCTOOL-DIR argument, mm-common-prepare will not copy the documentation utility files into the module's source tree. Instead, it is assumed that the module depends on mm-common and can use the installed documentation utilities that come with it.

If no SOURCE-DIR argument has been specified on the command line, the current working directory will be used.

OPTIONS¶

-c, --copy

copy files instead of creating symbolic links to them

-f, --force

forcefully replace existing files or symbolic links

--help

display a help message and exit

--version

show version information and exit

EXIT STATUS¶

The exit status is 0 if OK, or 1 if an error occurred.
