篇首语：本文由小常识网(cha138.com)小编为大家整理，主要介绍了Configure，Makefile.am, Makefile.in, Makefile文件之间关系相关的知识，希望对你有一定的参考价值。
1.autoscan (autoconf): 扫描源代码以搜寻普通的可移植性问题，比如检查编译器，库，头文件等，生成文件configure.scan,它是configure.ac的一个雏形。
your source files --> [autoscan*] --> [configure.scan] --> configure.ac
2.aclocal (automake):根据已经安装的宏，用户定义宏和acinclude.m4文件中的宏将configure.ac文件所需要的宏集中定义到文件 aclocal.m4中。aclocal是一个perl 脚本程序，它的定义是：“aclocal - create aclocal.m4 by scanning configure.ac”user input files optional input process output files
================ ============== ======= ============
acinclude.m4 - - - - -.
V
.-------,
configure.ac ------------------------>|aclocal|
{user macro files} ->| |------> aclocal.m4
`-------‘
3.autoheader(autoconf): 根据configure.ac中的某些宏，比如cpp宏定义，运行m4，声称config.h.in
user input files optional input process output files
================ ============== ======= ============
aclocal.m4 - - - - - - - .
|
V
.----------,
configure.ac ----------------------->|autoheader|----> autoconfig.h.in
`----------‘
4.automake: automake将Makefile.am中定义的结构建立Makefile.in，然后configure脚本将生成的Makefile.in文件转换 为Makefile。如果在configure.ac中定义了一些特殊的宏，比如AC_PROG_LIBTOOL，它会调用libtoolize，否则它 会自己产生config.guess和config.sub
user input files optional input processes output files
================ ============== ========= ============
.--------,
| | - - -> COPYING
| | - - -> INSTALL
| |------> install-sh
| |------> missing
|automake|------> mkinstalldirs
configure.ac ----------------------->| |
Makefile.am ----------------------->| |------> Makefile.in
| |------> stamp-h.in
.---+ | - - -> config.guess
| | | - - -> config.sub
| `------+-‘
| | - - - -> config.guess
|libtoolize| - - - -> config.sub
| |--------> ltmain.sh
| |--------> ltconfig
`----------‘
5.autoconf:将configure.ac中的宏展开，生成configure脚本。这个过程可能要用到aclocal.m4中定义的宏。
user input files optional input processes output files
================ ============== ========= ============
aclocal.m4 ,autoconfig.h.in - - - - - - -.
V
.--------,
configure.ac ----------------------->|autoconf|------> configure
6. ./configure的过程
.-------------> [config.cache]
configure* --------------------------+-------------> config.log
|
[config.h.in] -. v .--> [autoconfig.h]
+-------> config.status* -+
Makefile.in ---‘ `--> Makefile
7. make过程
[autoconfig.h] -.
+--> make* ---> 程序
Makefile ---‘
.---------,
config.site - - ->| |
config.cache - - ->|configure| - - -> config.cache

| |----> config.status
config.h.in ------->|config- |----> config.h
Makefile.in ------->| .status|----> Makefile
| |----> stamp-h
| +--,

| `------+--‘ |
ltmain.sh ------->|ltconfig|-------> libtool

|config.guess|

实例：
在/hello/目录下创建一个hello.c文件，并编译运行它：
#cd /hello/
(1) 编写源文件hello.c：
#include<stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
printf("Hello, GNU!n");
return 0;
}
[[email protected] hello]$ls
hello.c
[[email protected] hello]$autoscan
[[email protected] hello]$ls
autoscan.log configure.scan hello.c
已经生成了configure.scan，autoscan.log文件
将configure.scan 修改为 configure.ac，最后修改的内容如下：
# -*- Autoconf -*-
2 # Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script.

4 AC_PREREQ(2.69)
5 AC_INIT(FULL-PACKAGE-NAME, VERSION, BUG-REPORT-ADDRESS)
6 AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR([hello.c])
7 #AC_CONFIG_HEADERS(config.h)
8 AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(hello, 1.0)
9 # Checks for programs.
10 AC_PROG_CC

13 # Checks for libraries.

15 # Checks for header files.
16
17 # Checks for typedefs, structures, and compiler characteristics.
18
19 # Checks for library functions.

21 AC_OUTPUT(Makefile)
[[email protected] hello]$aclocal
[[email protected] hello]$ls
aclocal.m4 autom4te.cache autoscan.log configure.ac hello.c
生成 aclocal.m4 和 autom4te.cache (生成aclocal.m4的过程中涉及到configure.in)
[[email protected] hello]$autoconf
[[email protected] hello]$ls
aclocal.m4 autom4te.cache autoscan.log configure configure.ac hello.c
生成 configure (根据 configure.in, 和 aclocal.m4)
编写Makefile.am：
AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS= foreign
bin_PROGRAMS= hello
hello_SOURCES= hello.c
[[email protected] hello]$ automake --add-missing
configure.ac:7: warning: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: two- and three-arguments forms are deprecated. For more info, see:
configure.ac:7: http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Modernize-AM_005fINIT_005fAUTOMAKE-invocation
Makefile.am: installing ‘./depcomp‘
[[email protected] hello]$ls
aclocal.m4 autoscan.log configure depcomp install-sh Makefile.in
autom4te.cache compile configure.ac hello.c Makefile.am missing
automake生成 Makefile.in， depcomp， install-sh， 和 missing (根据 Makefile.am, 和 aclocal.m4)
