Nicer compilation output with AM_SILENT_RULES automake option
Last modified: 2009-08-25 23:11:51 UTC
automake1.11 has a feature that do the same as shave do. (turns the usual messy output of autotools into a pretty Kbuild-like one) The default build behavior is "same as previous" (i.e., verbose), but now user can choose quiet by "./configure --enable-silent-rules" or "make V=0". Alternately, AM_SILENT_RULES([yes]) makes quiet the default (same default as shave), and user can "./configure --disable-silent-rules" or "make V=1" to override. A hard dependency on automake 1.11 is not necessary. Only add m4_ifdef([AM_SILENT_RULES],[AM_SILENT_RULES([yes])]) to your configure.ac and should work and still be compatible with earlier automake versions. Also, automake1.11 has already been added to gnome-autogen.sh More info here: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/NicerBuilds and bug #580062
