11. Using GNU Libtool with `configure.in' and `Makefile.am'
Although Libtool is usable by itself, either from the command line or
from a non-make driven build system, it is also tightly
integrated into Autoconf and Automake. This chapter discusses how to
use Libtool with Autoconf and Automake and explains how to set up the
files you write (`Makefile.am' and `configure.in') to take
advantage of libtool . For a more in depth discussion of the
workings of Libtool, particularly its command line interface,
See section 10. Introducing GNU Libtool. Using libtool for dynamic
runtime loading is described in See section 18. Using GNU libltdl.
Using libtool to build the libraries in a project, requires
declaring your use of libtool inside the project's
`configure.in' and adding the Libtool support scripts to
the distribution. You will also need to amend the build rules in either
`Makefile.am' or `Makefile.in', depending on whether you are
using Automake.
