dnl @synopsis AX_BOOST_FILESYSTEM dnl dnl This macro checks to see if the Boost.Filesystem library is dnl installed. It also attempts to guess the currect library name using dnl several attempts. It tries to build the library name using a user dnl supplied name or suffix and then just the raw library. dnl dnl If the library is found, HAVE_BOOST_FILESYSTEM is defined and dnl BOOST_FILESYSTEM_LIB is set to the name of the library. dnl dnl This macro calls AC_SUBST(BOOST_FILESYSTEM_LIB). dnl dnl @category InstalledPackages dnl @author Michael Tindal dnl @version 2005-05-20 dnl @license GPLWithACException AC_DEFUN([AX_BOOST_FILESYSTEM], [AC_REQUIRE([AC_CXX_NAMESPACES])dnl AC_CACHE_CHECK(whether the Boost::Filesystem library is available, ax_cv_boost_filesystem, [AC_LANG_SAVE AC_LANG_CPLUSPLUS AC_COMPILE_IFELSE(AC_LANG_PROGRAM([[#include ]], [[using namespace boost::filesystem; path my_path( "foo/bar/data.txt" ); return 0;]]), ax_cv_boost_filesystem=yes, ax_cv_boost_filesystem=no) AC_LANG_RESTORE ]) if test "$ax_cv_boost_filesystem" = yes; then AC_DEFINE(HAVE_BOOST_FILE,,[define if the Boost::FILESYSTEM library is available]) dnl Now determine the appropriate file names AC_ARG_WITH([boost-filesystem],AS_HELP_STRING([--with-boost-filesystem], [specify the boost filesystem library or suffix to use]), [if test "x$with_boost_filesystem" != "xno"; then ax_filesystem_lib=$with_boost_filesystem ax_boost_filesystem_lib=boost_filesystem-$with_boost_filesystem fi]) AC_LANG_SAVE AC_LANG_CPLUSPLUS for ax_lib in $ax_filesystem_lib $ax_boost_filesystem_lib boost_filesystem-mt boost_filesystem; do ax_save_LIBS="$LIBS" LIBS="$LIBS -l$ax_lib" AC_LINK_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM([[#include ]], [[return 0;]])], [BOOST_FILESYSTEM_LIB=$ax_lib break]) LIBS="$ax_save_LIBS" done AC_LANG_RESTORE AC_SUBST(BOOST_FILESYSTEM_LIB) fi ])dnl
