[rrd-developers] Re: Preliminary libtooled version of RRDtoolavailable

[Tobias Oetiker]

Today you sent me mail regarding Re: [rrd-developers] Preliminary libtooled...:

*> Tobias,
*> 
*> Could you push out a rrdtool 1.0.5 with the libtool changes I added
*> to 1.0.3 and with the differences you put in between 1.0.3 and
*> 1.0.4?  This will make it easier to work on supplying patches to
*> a common code base, instead of patches for the libtool 1.0.3 or
*> 1.0.4.
*> 
*> To get the new automake/libtool system build static by default
*> and make shared optionally, replace the following line
*> 
*> AC_DISABLE_STATIC
*> 
*> with
*> 
*> AC_DISABLE_SHARED
*> 
*> in configure.in.  To have both static and shared, remove the
*> AC_DISABLE_STATIC completely.
*> 
*> However, I think that if the user will be building the perl RRDs.so
*> module, then shared building should be enabled in addition to a
*> static library.  If not, then build only a static module.  You don't
*> want users to have to specify a shared library if they are going
*> to compile RRDs.so.

I will try to add 1.0.3b to 1.0.4 on monday ... I wont be at work over the
weekend ... :-)

in any event ... thanks verymuch for your effort ...

cheers
