I have now written a new rotor control based on an Atmel ethernet board
and used with me. It works well so far.

The Automake manual makes it clear that certain user variables such as
CC, CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, and so on are to be preserved for the
user running configure. This patch cleans up such assignments and
assures that PTHREAD_CFLAGS and so forth are applied to those targets
that require it.
Trying to run the pthread enabled binaries on W2k resulted in an error
dialog with the text, "The procedure entry point freeaddrinfo could not be
located in ws2_32.dll". A Microsoft support page
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/955045) hints that when 'ws2tcpip.h' is
included that 'wspiapi.h' should be included as well. Since MinGw
includes both files, this patch corrects the runtime error on W2k

Building libltdl recursively now eliminates the second 'configure' run
inside the libltdl directory and requires the distribution of fewer
files and quiets compilation.
Also, if the 'configure' option '--with-included-ltdl' is not passed and
a system libltdl is found, the included libltdl directory will not even
be built. Only when the included libltdl is needed will it be built.

Hi all,
just found a minor problem in the configure.ac file for hamlib 1.2.15.3.
Back in 2007 Stephane added some checks to make the build system
respect pthreads (see commit from 11 Sep 2007). In that he added some
line to modify CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS (see lines 87.. in configure.ac)
ACX_PTHREAD
if test x"$acx_pthread_ok" = xyes; then
CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} ${PTHREAD_CFLAGS}"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS} ${PTHREAD_CFLAGS}"
fi
These code let the build system ignore the CXXFLAGS setting by replacing
it by CFLAGS. I just checked that these error affects only the
building of the c++ bindings. So it shoudl be easy to fix.
Correct version should do
CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} ${PTHREAD_CFLAGS}"
instead. See the attached patch.

Note that this bug that affected the Hamlib-1.2.15 and earlier branches
also has affected the master branch. This is now corrected and CXXFLAGS
is preserved through configure.ac.
If pkg-config is not installed, a very cryptic error occurs when
autogen.sh runs the configure script. Add a check from:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2011-03/msg00008.html
to check for pkg-config presence and if pkg-config is not found, a stub
macro disables any configuration of any feature relying on its presence.
Various fixes for building the bindings properly.
Install TCL binding to $(libdir)/tcl/Hamlib, arbitrarily chosen since
there seems to be no standard installation location. When install
location is changed, tcltest.tcl documents the needed change to a TCL
script.
In the Perl and Python test scripts, improved the QRA examples. In all
scripts used tabs to line up printed values nicely.
Updated INSTALL and NEWS for recent updates. Better documented bindings
installation and uninstallation in INSTALL.
Use ax_pkg_swig.m4 from the GNU Autoconf Macro Archive as it is actively
maintained and update configure.ac accordingly.
Moved the Swig test to the bindings section of configure.ac.
Refactored the logic of the Swig test.
Updated ax_python_devel.m4 to latest version in the Autoconf Macro
Archive (removes two email addresses, not other changes).
Removed aclocal-include.m4 and lf_warnings.m4 as they were not being
used any longer.
Update macros definitions in macros/Makefile.am to recent additions and
deletion of the local macro files.
A Perl file was being compile whether Perl binding was enabled or not.
Fixed that and configured an AM_CONDITIONAL for Perl so its components
will not be built when it is not enabled.
As AC_CHECK_HEADERS and AC_CHECK_FUNCS take multiple file names,
consolidate the multiple macro calls into a single call for each.
Remove the last obsolescent macro calls.
If libgd-dev is not installed, an Automake conditional will disable the
rigmatrix.html target in tests/Makefile. Optionally, this target may
also be disabled by use of the '--disable-html-matrix' option passed to
the configure script. By default the configure script will enable the
target if the libgd development files are found and disable it when they
are not.
Static libs are generally not wanted so disable their builds by default.
Remove references to '--disable-static' from documentation and example
scripts.
I found that building on Cygwin that when libxml2 is installed, MSYS
fails the compile as libxml2 is installed outside the MSYS idea of
'root'. As this feature depends on an external library, give user the
option of compiling with this support. Default is to not build rigmem
with XML support.
Use the libtool link mode argument '-version-info' to set the Hamlib 3
ABI to be compatible with Hamlib 1.2 ABI. As the current ABI has not
been changed or removed, we should be able to maintain backward
compatibility. The libtool docs state that so long as the ABI is only
added to, backward compatibility should be maintained.
My idea here is to be able to have presently compiled programs be able
to use binary libraries of Hamlib 3 without recompiling. So far I have
tested this locally on Linux and Windows. More testing is welcome.
Initializing libltdl is now done by the LTDL_INIT macro in configure.ac.
This now creates a libltdl directory in the tree (not tracked in Git)
when autoreconf is run. The downside is that this complicates the build
a little bit with the advantage that the build can now take place on a
system that does not have libltdl-dev installed as Hamlib will build on
such systems by passing the '--with-included-ltdl' flag to the configure
script. In particular, this simplifies the build on Linux for the mingw32
host by not having to run libtoolize manually and assures that libltdl
is built with the same build and host architectures as Hamlib.
Now check if '--with-included-ltdl' has been passed to configure and if
not, only then test for the presence of an installed ltdl.h.
Commented out AM_MAINTAINER_MODE macro. It is recommended by the
Automake manual that this macro and its configure options not be used as
the Autotools system is designed to regenerate its files. Let me know
if this is problem as it can be reversed easily enough. The autogen.sh
script no longer passes the '--enable-maintainer-mode' option to
configure when bootstrapping the build system from Git.
Minor edits in configure.ac to improve readability.
Updated build-win32 files in scripts/
Cleaned up M4sh syntax for variable quoting, replaced shell 'if'
conditionals with M4sh AS_IF macro and shell 'case' with AS_CASE macro.
Properly quoted macro variables. Added comments to configure.ac
describing actions, commented out obsolete macros, commented obsolecent
macros, and added comments for major sections.
Corrected a Mingw linker error on the .EXE files adding
'--enable-auto-import' to their LD flags. Testing this commit on win32
shows that rigctld is now working properly. Will need to port this to
the Stable branch and test.
Replaced older local macros with newer replacements from GNU Autoconf
archive.
Using the -Wall switch to autoconf/autoreconf revealed a number of
obsolete macros. At the moment, offending macros have been commented
out using 'dnl'. They will be removed at some later date.

Updated README.release procedure and configure.ac for Windows DLL (mingw32)
build. Now that hamlib no longer bundles libltdl (libtool), libltdl must
be imported, configured with --host-i586-mingw32msvc, and built (before
configuring hamlib with --host-i586-mingw32msvc).
Master branch, a.k.a. "trunk" branch for main development, will now have
its numeric version string appended by '~git'. Per Kamal Mostafa,
KA6MAL, the use of the '~' character causes packaging systems to treat
the version string as an ealier release. e.g. The Debian packaging
system treats 1.2.14~git as earlier than 1.2.14 which is useful to
avoid confusion after release.
Stop the build at configure time if we can't find ltdl.h in the standard
include paths, and advise installation of libltdl development package.

- autogen.sh: never downgrade our bundled libltdl/ (only run libtoolize if
system version is newer than our bundled version).
- autofixer.sh: script removed as libtool 1.x is no longer allowed.
- configure.ac: (not enabled) optional setting to deprecate embedded libltdl/.
