building apr-util with mingw
Hi,
I'm trying to build apr-util with mingw so that I can attempt to build
log4cxx there.
Attached is the output of ./configure, which fails.
Has anyone built apr-util with mingw? I'm using svn trunk.
Thanks,
Bob Rossi

Is this going to go upstream into the autotools stuff eventually?
Using both normal libtool, and experimental one, I get the same results.
Both have this error during configure, but configure does continue on.
checking dynamic linker characteristics... /home/bobbybrasko/log4cxx/apr-util/src/apr-util/xml/expat/con
figure: -print-search-dirs: command not found
/home/bobbybrasko/log4cxx/apr-util/src/apr-util/xml/expat/configure: -print-search-dirs: command not found
Both give this as a warning:

Is this normal?

Although don't assume that it's 100% compatible with normal libtool ;-)

It uses jlibtool, Justin's replacement for libtool.
The source code for it is here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/apr/apr/trunk/build/jlibtool.c
Its faster, and doesn't suck :)

OK, what does this option do? A quick look at the libtool and autoconf
manuals have no info on it. Do you know where I can find documentation
on this option?

I think you need to use jlibtool. I never got it working on mingw,
without passing --enable-experimental-libtool to ./configure.

Here is the output of make. Could someone please explaing the warnings
about static libraries for expat? Is there a work around?

So, here is the line that failed to configure it:
./configure --prefix=/home/bobbybrasko/log4cxx/apr-util/src/prefixdir
--with-apr=/home/bobbybrasko/vigilant/apr/apr-1.3.0-cvs/bin/apr-1-config
However, this line allowed the configure to work.
./configure --prefix=/home/bobbybrasko/log4cxx/apr-util/src/prefixdir
--with-apr=/home/bobbybrasko/vigilant/apr/apr-1.3.0-cvs/bin/apr-1-config
--bindir=/home/bobbybrasko/log4cxx/apr-util/src/prefixdir/bin
--libdir=/home/bobbybrasko/log4cxx/apr-util/src/prefixdir/lib
I don't think I should have to specify the bindir and libdir since I
specified the --prefix. Is this a bug in the autotools build system?
