Edit File: ChangeLog.1996
1996-12-17 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltmain.sh.in (link): Don't allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid object type suffixes, in spite of Automake's current ansi2knr implementation. Not all compilers allow non-`.o' suffixes. 1996-12-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltmain.sh.in (link): Delete the `libtool' version type. 1996-12-12 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltconfig.in: Use the full autoconf syntax when checking for GNU C. Delete library stripping program, until we have a correct test. 1996-12-11 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltconfig.in: On AIX 3, use /usr/ucb/nm, not /ucb/nm. From Mark Kettenis. 1996-12-09 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> Reported by Charles Kerr: * doc/libtool.texi (Creating Object Files): Doc fix independant -> independent. * ltconfig.in (ld_shlibs): SunOS 4 doesn't support shared library dependencies. 1996-12-08 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * Release 0.7. * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add README-automake to the distribution. * ltmain.sh.in (link): When linking libtool libraries, use standard objects if they are PIC. This prevents spurious warnings about invalid suffixes on AIX. * demo/Makefile.am: Rename libhell to libhello, so that we're not quite as offensive. * ltconfig.in: Remove unnecessary host validity checking. * ltmain.sh.in: Don't force people to use libNAME.la: SOMETHING.la is good enough (for consistency with *.a handling). * tests/demo.test: Break up into demo-conf.test, demo-make.test, demo-exec.test, demo-inst.test, and demo-unst.test, so that passes and failures are reported more quickly. * tests/link-2.test: Test to make sure that .lo files don't get built directly into programs. 1996-12-07 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltmain.sh.in (link): Accept files ending in .a as standard object files. Reported by Ulrich Drepper. Remove support for creating profiled libraries (for now). Transform all library objects into standard objects when linking a program. * ltconfig.in (thisdir): How embarrassing! An error in the regexp for finding the directory component of the script path. * tests/tlibtool: A typically-configured libtool script, that uses ../ltmain.sh.in for its backend. * tests/link.test: Make sure that it is legal to link against .a files. 1996-12-05 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltmain.sh.in (compile): Support `.S' (preprocessed assembler) files. Reported by Anthony Green. * libtoolize.in: Give clearer instrutions for how to update aclocal.m4. * ltconfig.in, ltmain.sh.in (link): Add support for creating reloadable objects. 1996-12-04 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix passing -n flag to `libtool --finish'. (compile): Compile `.lo' and `.o' objects at the same time so that non-PIC objects (if they are available) can be used for linking into programs and creating static archives. Suggested by Ulrich Drepper. 1996-12-03 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltmain.sh.in (link): Give the full path to the libtool library when sourcing it. * ltconfig.in (old_striplib): Do a configuration test to determine if old-style libraries actually can be stripped or not. 1996-12-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * tests/demo.test: Try compiling the ../demo subdirectory, with no special options. * test-e.test: Check that we haven't used `test -e' anywhere in our portable shell scripts. 1996-12-02 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltconfig.in: Delete reference to ABOUT-LIBS. * tests: Added new subdirectory. * doc/libtool.texi: Doc fixes, and finished up the Configuring chapter. * ltmain.sh.in (link): Allow *._o and *.l_o to be valid object file suffixes, for Automake's ansi2knr implementation. New option -version-info replaces -version-file. [help]: Give a pointer to mode-specific help when appropriate. * ltconfig.in: Changed messages to correspond to AM_PROG_CC_STDC. * demo: Also test Automake's ansi2knr support. 1996-11-19 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltconfig.in: Bug fixes for AIX 4, and for static platforms. * ltmain.sh.in (install): Fix for loops over arguments. Need to quote ${IFS= } -> "${IFS= }". (link): Fix soname_spec bug. Create objdir whether or not we have shared libraries. * ltconfig.in: Check for library stripping program. Use test -f instead of test -e. 1996-11-18 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltconfig.in: Don't run the RANLIB test unless RANLIB wasn't set. Be verbose about the environment variables we were configured with. * ltmain.sh.in (objdir): change to .libs. 1996-11-16 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltmain.sh.in (install): Just plunge ahead with the installation... don't try to enforce dependencies. 1996-11-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltmain.sh.in: Fix up $libdir to be $dest in install mode. 1996-11-10 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * ltmain.sh: Finished rewrite of compile, link, and install modes. * New ChangeLog file for libtool-0.7, since I've totally rewritten libtool. 1996-03-15 Gordon Matzigkeit <gord@gnu.ai.mit.edu> * For historical reasons: this is when I started writing libtool.
