Thank you for the response. I guess the only thing that is confusing is that the LLVM documentation, at http://llvm.org/docs/Projects.html under the "Create a Project from the Sample Project" heading, indicates that (1) you can place your project *anywhere* you want, and (2) that you are supposed to use the AutoRegen.sh script as is. However, that seems not to be the case. The reason my project is not in the LLVM projects directory is because it is in a CVS directory as part of a different project I am working on. Again thanks for the help. Ryan Reid Spencer wrote:> It's complaining about the LLVM autoconf/m4 directory which contains the > m4 macros that are used in your project's configure.ac.

Ryan, Rather than fix the documentation to match reality, I decided to fix reality to match the documentation. I have just committed (CVS head) changes to the sample project's AutoRegen.sh script that will prompt the user for the path to the LLVM source root and the LLVM object root, if it can't automatically determine the location (because your project is not located in the llvm/projects directory). Once entered, the value is retained and used throughout so you never need to specify it again. Hopefully, this will help with your circumstances. Please try it out and let me know if that solution works or if you have any further issues. Reid. On Tue, 2006-04-18 at 00:03 -0500, Ryan M. Lefever wrote:> Thank you for the response.

Reid,
Thanks for the help. I am trying out the fixes you checked into CVS. I
seem to be getting some errors running AutoRegen.sh. I am a bit
inexperienced with autoconf and m4. The errors I'm getting are below.
Do you know what the problem is? I am using machines running FC3. The
autoconf version is 2.59, the aclocal version is 1.9.2, and the m4
version is 1.4.1.
/usr/share/aclocal/gob2.m4:7: warning: underquoted definition of GOB2_HOOK
run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal
Regenerating configure with autoconf 2.5x
configure.ac:25: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_CONFIG_MAKEFILE
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
autoconf failed
Regards,
Ryan
