[jira] [Commented] (XERCESC-254) won't build from outside of source tree

----------------------------------------

Yes, it works for me.

I just noticed a malformed "include" of a the Makefile "version.incl" in src/xercesc/util/MsgLoaders/ICU/resources/Makefile.in

This implied an error when I tried to distclean the build and the source trees.

When I made this works fine, the "svn diff" command output was :

Maybe you can apply this patch in the svn trunk

> It's fairly standard practice to be able to build an autoconf-based package
> outside of its source tree (which is useful, if you like to keep the untarred
> source tree lying around, in pristine condition, or if you're building for
> multiple platforms and want to preserve the build for each) by running configure
> from the build directory.  For example, if I have package foo untarred in
> /usr/local/kits/foo/ and want to build it in /usr/local/builds/foo/, I'd run
> /usr/local/kits/foo/configure from /usr/local/builds/foo/.  If that doesn't
> work, there's actually an option for configure '--srcdir=DIR' that's supposed to
> do the trick.
> So, Xerces-C++ should provide some mechanism for supporting builds from outside
> the source directory (meaning that all paths in the makefiles must be in terms
> of '$(SRCDIR)', and runConfigure should check $0, to see where it lives, rather
> than assuming this to be '.', so it can try to run configure from the right
> place).
