[Rd] aclocal.m4: R_PROG_F77_CC_COMPAT assumes executables w/o extension (PR#890)
Full_Name: Thomas Hoffmann
Version: 1.2.2 (and older)
OS: HP-UX, OS/2
Submission from: (NULL) (141.30.125.20)
The test defined in AC_DEFUN([R_PROG_F77_CC_COMPAT] (aclocal.m4:342) produces
an executable using (in line 393)
if ${CC-cc} ${LDFLAGS} ${MAIN_LDFLAGS} -o conftest conftest.o \ ....
This fails on systems that use an extension for executables, which can be
used via $ac_exeext in configure files. So it should read instead
if ${CC-cc} ${LDFLAGS} ${MAIN_LDFLAGS} -o conftest$ac_exeext conftest.o \ ....

Currently the configure mechanism is only used on Unix, and I am not aware of a Unix system which uses an extension for executables ... -k -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-devel mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
