2016-10-11configure: detect the broken poll() in macOS 10.12Daniel Stenberg
Fixes #1057
2016-06-21curl-compilers.m4: improve detection of GCC's -fvisibility= flagKamil Dudka
Some builds of GCC produce output on both stdout and stderr when --help --verbose is used. The 2>&1 redirection caused them to be arbitrarily interleaved with each other because of stream buffering. Consequently, grep failed to match the fvisibility= string in the mixed output, even though the string was present in GCC's standard output. This led to silently disabling symbol hiding in some builds of curl.
2016-04-21configure: ac_cv_ -> curl_cv_ for write-only varsIrfan Adilovic
These configure vars are modified in a curl-specific way but never evaluated or loaded from cache, even though they are designated as _cv_. We could either implement proper AC_CACHE_CHECKs for them, or remove them completely. Fixes #603 as ac_cv_func_gethostbyname is no longer clobbered, and AC_CHECK_FUNC(gethostbyname...) will no longer spuriously succeed after the first configure run with caching. `ac_cv_func_strcasecmp` is curious, see #770. `eval "ac_cv_func_$func=yes"` can still cause problems as it works in tandem with AC_CHECK_FUNCS and then potentially modifies its result. It would be best to rewrite this test to use a new CURL_CHECK_FUNCS macro, which works the same as AC_CHECK_FUNCS but relies on caching the values of curl_cv_func_* variables, without modifiying ac_cv_func_*.
2016-04-21configure: ac_cv_ -> curl_cv_ for r/w varsIrfan Adilovic
These configure vars are modified in a curl-specific way and modified by the configure process, but are never loaded from cache, even though they are designated as _cv_. We should implement proper AC_CACHE_CHECKs for them eventually.
2016-04-21configure: ac_cv_ -> curl_cv_ for all cached varsIrfan Adilovic
This was automated by: sed -b -i -f <(ack -A1 AC_CACHE_CHECK | \ ack -o 'ac_cv_.*?\b' | \ sort -u | xargs -n1 bash -c \ 'echo "s/$0/curl_cv_${0#ac_cv_}/g"') \ $(git ls-files) This only changed the prefix for 16 variables actually checked with AC_CACHE_CHECK.

2015-12-20configure: detect IPv6 support on WindowsJohannes Schindelin
This patch was "nicked" from the MINGW-packages project by Daniel. https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/commit/9253d0bf58a1486e91f7efb5316e7fdb48fa4007 Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
2015-12-20configure: allow static builds on mingwDaniel Stenberg
This patch is adopted from the MINGW-packages project. It makes it possible to build curl both shared and static again. URL: https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/tree/master/mingw-w64-curl
2015-09-26curl-confopts.m4: Add missing ')'Tatsuhiro Tsujikawa
... for CURL_CHECK_OPTION_RT Closes #456
2015-07-24configure: add --disable-rt optionMichaƂ Fita
This option disables any attempts in configure to create dependency on stuff requiring linking to librt.so and libpthread.so, in this case this means clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &mt). We were in need to build curl which doesn't link libpthread.so to avoid the following bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16628.

2014-05-06Enable poll on darwin13Daniel Johnson
Poll has long been broken on Mac OS X. Starting with 10.9 (darwin13) it now works correctly so this patch enables it there.
2013-09-27configure: use icc options without spaceDaniel Stenberg
The latest version(s) of the icc compiler no longer accept the extra space in the -we (warning enable), -wd (warning disable), etc. Reported-by: Elmira A Semenova Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2013-09/0182.html
2013-09-07configure: improve CURL_CHECK_COMPILER_PROTOTYPE_MISMATCHDaniel Stenberg
The compiler test used a variable before it was assigned when it tried to see how it acts on a mismatching prototype, which could cause a false positive.
2013-08-05configure: warn on bad env variable use, don't errorDaniel Stenberg
Use XC_CHECK_BUILD_FLAGS instead XC_CHECK_USER_FLAGS.
2013-08-05Revert "configure: don't error out on variable confusions, just warn"Daniel Stenberg
This reverts commit 6b27703b5f525eccdc0a8409f51de8595c75132a.
2013-08-04configure: don't error out on variable confusions, just warnDaniel Stenberg
2013-08-03configure: rephrase the notice in _XC_CHECK_VAR_*Daniel Stenberg
Instead of claiming it is an error, we call it a "note" to reduce the severity level. But the following text now says the [variable] "*should* only be used to specify"... instead of previously having said "may".

2013-02-23strcasestr: remove check for this unused functionDaniel Stenberg
2013-02-14strlcat: remove functionDaniel Stenberg
This function was only used twice, both in places where performance isn't crucial (socks + if2ip). Removing the use of this function removes the need to have our private version for systems without it == reduced amount of code. Also, in the SOCKS case it is clearly better to fail gracefully rather than to truncate the results. This work was triggered by a bug report on the strcal prototype in strequal.h. strlcat was added in commit db70cd28 in February 2001!

2013-01-23configure: use XC_CONFIGURE_PREAMBLE early checksYang Tse
Some basic checks we make were placed early enough in generated configure script when using autoconf 2.5X versions. Newer autoconf versions expand these checks much further into the configure script, rendering them useless. Using XC_CONFIGURE_PREAMBLE fixes placement of early intended checks across all our autoconf supported versions.

2013-01-21xc-cc-check.m4: re-evaluate exporting and AC_SUBST'ing varsYang Tse
Notes: When running a configure script that has nested packages (for example libcurl's configure with --enable-ares and c-ares sources embedded in curl tree) and AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS([nested-subdir]) machinery is used to automatically run the nested configure script from within the parent configure script, it happens that the nested _shell_ script will inherit shell variables exported from the parent _shell_ script. If for example parent configure script sets and exports LDFLAGS and LIBS variables with proper values in order to link either a parent library or program with a library which will be configured and built by a nested package; It will happen that when the nested configure script runs, the nested library does not exist yet and _any_ link-test done in the nested configure will fail, such as those that autoconf macros perform in order to detect existing compiler and its characteristics, the result is that the nested configure script will fail with errors such as: configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables For now, we no longer export variables previously exported here. On the other hand, AC_SUBST'ing them is appropriate and even with nested packages each package's config.status gets its own package values. So we reinstate AC_SUBST'ing previously AC_SUBST'ed variables.

2013-01-09build: fix circular header inclusion with other packagesYang Tse
This commit renames lib/setup.h to lib/curl_setup.h and renames lib/setup_once.h to lib/curl_setup_once.h. Removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard foreign to libcurl. [1] Removes the need and presence of an alarming notice we carried in old setup_once.h [2] ---------------------------------------- 1 - lib/setup_once.h used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro as header inclusion guard up to commit ec691ca3 which changed this to HEADER_CURL_SETUP_ONCE_H, this single inclusion guard is enough to ensure that inclusion of lib/setup_once.h done from lib/setup.h is only done once. Additionally lib/setup.h has always used __SETUP_ONCE_H macro to protect inclusion of setup_once.h even after commit ec691ca3, this was to avoid a circular header inclusion triggered when building a c-ares enabled version with c-ares sources available which also has a setup_once.h header. Commit ec691ca3 exposes the real nature of __SETUP_ONCE_H usage in lib/setup.h, it is a header inclusion guard foreign to libcurl belonging to c-ares's setup_once.h The renaming this commit does, fixes the circular header inclusion, and as such removes the need and usage of a header inclusion guard foreign to libcurl. Macro __SETUP_ONCE_H no longer used in libcurl. 2 - Due to the circular interdependency of old lib/setup_once.h and the c-ares setup_once.h header, old file lib/setup_once.h has carried back from 2006 up to now days an alarming and prominent notice about the need of keeping libcurl's and c-ares's setup_once.h in sync. Given that this commit fixes the circular interdependency, the need and presence of mentioned notice is removed. All mentioned interdependencies come back from now old days when the c-ares project lived inside a curl subdirectory. This commit removes last traces of such fact.
