Description

The autoxt utility installs autoconf/make resources for Stratego/XT packages. In particular, it installs the M4 macro file autoxt.m4 and the automake file Makefile.xt.

Example

The autoxt tool is typically invoked from a bootstrap script at the top-level of an autoconfiscated project.

#!/bin/sh
rm -f mkinstalldirs missing install-sh
autoxt || exit 1
mv autoxt.m4 config
autoreconf -ifv || exit 1

To use the XT packages in your project invoke the XT_USE_XT_PACKAGES macro in the configure.ac file. The prefix of that file typically looks like the following:

AC_INIT([tiger],[1.3],[stratego-bugs@cs.uu.nl])
AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([config])
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE

# set the prefix immediately to the default prefix
test "x$prefix" = xNONE && prefix=$ac_default_prefix

XT_USE_XT_PACKAGES

In each Makefile.am

include Makefile.xt

As usual, the bootstrap script should make certain that the correct versions of automake, and autoconf are used.
