automake (GNU automake) 1.6.3
Hi,
I think there is an inconsistency between the Automake documentation and
actual program behavior. The documentation says:
Program and Library Variables
[...]
`maude_LIBADD'
Extra objects can be added to a static library using the `_LIBADD'
variable. This should be used for objects determined by
`configure'. Note that `_LIBADD' is not used for shared
libraries; there you must use `_LDADD'.
But when I use `maude_LDADD' for adding extra object files to a Libtool
library, Automake says that I have to use `maude_LIBADD':
$ automake
libcmex/Makefile.am:55: use `libcmex_la_LIBADD', not `libcmex_la_LDADD'
Either the program or the documentation should be fixed. Thanks,
