I'm trying to make a small change to an automake build.
The system to modify uses configure.ac
and Makefile.am
inputs.
For a single object file within one subdirectory I have to invoke
a script before compiling, to patch config info into the build.
I don't see the right location to allow such pre-processing ahead of compiling this specific C file. What I've tried is to insert an additional target into
all: all-am
But this seems not to be the way to go and in addition I wasn't able to figure how to overload this generated line.
