[jira] Created: (STDCXX-260) configure-like script to configure library

configure-like script to configure library
------------------------------------------

                 Key: STDCXX-260
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-260
             Project: C++ Standard Library
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Configuration
    Affects Versions: 4.1.2, 4.1.3
         Environment: UNIX
            Reporter: Martin Sebor
            Priority: Critical


To make the configuration and build process more user-friendly we should provide a configure-like script (as a wrapper around the existing GNUmakefiles) to let users familiar with autoconf-based projects more quickly configure, build, and install the library (including its headers). The script should recognize and interpret the most common options such as --prefix=,  --enable-shared, --enable-threads, etc. by translating them to the existing infrastructure's equivalents (e.g., BUILDMODE or BUILDTYPE).
