AC_OUTPUT create each `file' by copying an input
file (by default `file.in'), substituting the output variable
values.
This macro is one of the instantiating macros, see section Taking Configuration Actions. See section Substitutions in Makefiles, for more information on using
output variables. See section Setting Output Variables, for more information
on creating them. This macro creates the directory that the file is in
if it doesn't exist. Usually, `Makefile's are created this way,
but other files, such as `.gdbinit', can be specified as well.
Typical calls to AC_CONFIG_FILES look like this:
AC_CONFIG_FILES(Makefile src/Makefile man/Makefile X/Imakefile) AC_CONFIG_FILES(autoconf, chmod +x autoconf)
You can override an input file name by appending to file a colon-separated list of input files. Examples:
AC_CONFIG_FILES(Makefile:boiler/top.mk:boiler/bot.mk
lib/Makefile:boiler/lib.mk)
Doing this allows you to keep your file names acceptable to MS-DOS, or to prepend and/or append boilerplate to the file.
