Some basic checks we make were placed early enough in generated
configure script when using autoconf 2.5X versions. Newer autoconf
versions expand these checks much further into the configure script,
rendering them useless. Using XC_CONFIGURE_PREAMBLE fixes placement
of early intended checks across all our autoconf supported versions.
Tested with:
buildconf: autoconf version 2.69
buildconf: autom4te version 2.69
buildconf: autoheader version 2.69
buildconf: automake version 1.13.1
buildconf: aclocal version 1.13.1
buildconf: libtool version 2.4
buildconf: GNU m4 version 1.4.16
Provide a 'traceable' AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR definition only when using
an autoconf version that does not provide it, instead of what we were
doing up to now of providing and overriding AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR for
all autoconf versions.
Take in account that POSIX standard Issue 7 drops h_errno support. Now, we also
consider getaddrinfo() to be thread-safe when (_POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L) or
(_XOPEN_SOURCE >= 700) independently of whether h_errno exists or not.
Take in account that h_errno might be a modifiable lvalue not defined as
a C preprocessor macro.
Currently it is unknown if there is any version of clang that
actually supports -Wstrict-aliasing. What is known is that there
are several that don't support it.
configure script now provides conditional definitions for Makefile.am
that result in CARES_SYMBOL_HIDING being defined by resulting makefiles
when appropriate.
A more thorough test is done now in order to determine visibility attribute
usability, given that some compilers don't support visibility attribute on
all configurations.
Add CARES_CHECK_COMPILER as a requirement.
Ensure macro does nothing unless GNU_C or CLANG compiler is used.
This should allow usage of this macro in unforeseen placements.
Recent versions of libtool are now tracing usage of AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR
macro and warn heavily when not used in configure script along with
ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in Makefile.am. So in order to make libtool happy
while keeping backwards compatibility this is added.
Define HAVE_INET_NET_PTON only when system's inet_net_pton function is IPv6
capable and is not affected by the WLB-2008080064 advisory.
HAVE_INET_NET_PTON_IPV6 is no longer defined nor used.
Temporarily, When cross-compiling with gcc 3.0 or later, enable strict aliasing
rules and warnings. Given that cross-compiled targets autobuilds do not run the
test-suite, there is no risk of running code that violates strict aliasing rules
This helps find compile warnings because they simply break
the build.
To use:
./configure --enable-warnings --enable-werror
