dnl aclocal.m4 --- Dynamically linked library support for XEmacs
dnl Copyright (C) 1998, 1999 J. Kean Johnston.
dnl Author: J. Kean Johnston <jkj@sco.com>, based on work in libtool.
dnl This file is part of XEmacs.

dnl
dnl There are several things we care about here. First, we need to find
dnl out how we create an executable that has its symbols exported, so
dnl that dynamically loaded modules have access to the internal XEmacs
dnl symbols. This is stored in ``ld_dynamic_link_flags'' and is used
dnl in the main Makefile.
dnl Next, we need to know how we compile actual shared libraries, and
dnl the objects in them.  For these purposes, we need to determine the
dnl C compiler flags used to produce shared objects (``dll_cflags''),
dnl what linker to use to create the final shared object that will be
dnl loaded (``dll_ld'') and the flags to pass to that linker
dnl (``dll_ldflags''). This information is used by ellcc to build up
dnl the command line when compiling modules. We build up two other commands
dnl for extremely weird systems where special things need to be done.
dnl The first is ``dll_ldo'', which is the flag used to specify the output
dnl file name, and the second is ``dll_post'' which is inserted after the
dnl list of objects.
dnl After all of this, we should be able to:
dnl    $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(dll_cflags) -c module.c
dnl to produce a single shared object
dnl And then:
dnl   $(dll_ld) $(dll_ldflags) $(dll_ldo) module.ell module.o $(dll_post)
dnl to create the loadable shared library.
dnl
dnl NOTE: In the code below, where I have modified things to work with
dnl XEmacs, we use $canonical instead of libtool's $host, and we use
dnl $internal_configuration instead of $host_alias. To make typing
dnl shorter we assign these to $xehost and $xealias

dnl Now comes the LD trickery. We do things differently to libtool here.
dnl I believe that libtool is incorrect in trying to drive the linker
dnl directly. This can cause considerable problems if the module you are
dnl compiling has C++ or other static initializers. If we use ld directly,
dnl we don't end up with the crt stuff being linked in, and we don't end up
dnl with any .init or .fini sections (or the moral equivalent thereof).
dnl gcc takes great care to do this properly when invoked in -shared
dnl mode, and we really do want this behavior. Perhaps the libtool folks
dnl are not aware that any SVR4 based dynamic loader will automatically
dnl execute code in the .init section before dlopen() returns. This is
dnl vital, as the module may have been compiled to rely on that behavior.
dnl
dnl So, having said all of that, we diverge from libtool significantly
dnl here. We want to try and use the C compiler as much as possible. Only
dnl if the C compiler itself cannot create shared libraries to we try to
dnl find the linker.
dnl
dnl The other advantage to my scheme is that it removes the dependancy
dnl on a given compiler version remaining static with relation to the
dnl version of XEmacs. With the libtool way, it picks up the linker that
dnl gcc uses, which can be the internal collect2 that comes with gcc.
dnl If the user ever changes their compiler version, the paths will no
dnl longer be correct, and ellcc will break. This is clearly unacceptable.
dnl By using the compiler driver on the path, we don't have this problem.
dnl If that is not clear, consider that gcc -print-prog-name=ld can
dnl produce something along the lines of:
dnl   /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/OS-NAME/GCC-VERSION/ld
dnl If you ever change GCC versions, then that path no longer exists.
dnl
dnl So, we change the check order here. We first check to see if we are
dnl using GCC, and if so, we see if -shared works. If it does, great.
dnl If we are not using gcc, but the system C compiler can produce
dnl shared objects, we try that. Only if all of that fails do we revert
dnl back to the libtool ld trickery.
dnl
dnl We don't do ANY of this if we can't produce shared objects.

dnl Last thing, check how to get a linked executable to have its symbols
dnl exported, so that the modules have access to them.
dnl
dnl XEmacs FIXME - we need to set ld_dynamic_link_flags properly for
dnl most of these systems, which was missing from libtool. I know they
dnl all have a way of doing this, but someone needs to look at this
dnl for each OS and make sure it is correct. Remember that the arguments
dnl are passed when temacs is linked, this is NOT for modules. The sole
dnl purpose of the argument is to get the internal XEmacs symbols exposed
dnl for modules to use. This means that the COMPILER (and NOT the linker)
dnl is most often used to create temacs, so arguments to the linker will
dnl usually need to be prefix with ${wl} or some other such thing.
