First I'll say that I am not very familiar with autoconf or even C =
programming.
I made some changes to the configure.in file that work much better for =
me and thought I would share them.
First I'll explain my particular problem and provide the solution that =
works on my system.
I am using FreeBSD 4.7
I have both freetype1 and freetype2 installed on my system from the =
freebsd ports.
the --enable-force-freetype1=3Dyes always detects that I have freetype2 =
and never sees freetype1
this part of the configure.in does not detect either library hence the =
reason it never finds freetype1 with --enable-force-freetype1
if test "$enable_force_freetype1" =3D "yes" ; then
dnl check for freetype1 first
AC_CHECK_LIB(ttf, TT_Init_FreeType, FT_LIB=3D"-lttf",
AC_CHECK_LIB(freetype, FT_Init_FreeType, =
FT_LIB=3D"-lfreetype",,) )
else
dnl check for freetype2 first
AC_CHECK_LIB(freetype, FT_Init_FreeType, FT_LIB=3D"-lfreetype",
AC_CHECK_LIB(ttf, TT_Init_FreeType, FT_LIB=3D"-lttf",,) )
fi
According to the autoconf documentation I read this should work but it =
does not for some strange reason.
So I did some copying and pasting in the configure.in and came up with =
these changes that do work for me.
now if I specify --enable-force-freetype1=3Dyes it detects freetype1 if =
I do not specify it it default to detecting freetype2
mapserver compiled fine and renders True Type fonts perfect with these =
changes.
