[postgis-devel] ICONV autodetection (head branch)

[Jean David TECHER]

Yes Master!!! :-)

cvs checkout postgis

I applied my patch for windows
and let in postgis/Makefile.config.in

USE_ICONV=@USE_ICONV@

I got

for configure

 
 SUMMARY
 -------------------------------------------------------
 
 HOST_OS: mingw32
 
   PGSQL: /c/PostgreSQL/8.0.3/bin/pg_config
    GEOS: /c/PostgreSQL/8.0.3/bin/geos-config
    PROJ: dir=/c/PostgreSQL/8.0.3/bin/..
   ICONV: 0
  
 PORTNAME: win32
   PREFIX: /usr/local
  EPREFIX: ${prefix}
      DOC: ${prefix}/share/doc
     DATA: ${prefix}/share/postgresql/contrib
      MAN: ${prefix}/man
      BIN: c:/PostgreSQL/8.0.3/bin
      EXT: c:/PostgreSQL/8.0.3/lib (\$$libdir)
 -------------------------------------------------------
 
Hum....!!! The only problem is to be able to have lwpostgis.sql and spatial_ref_sys.sql in the same directory og PG SHAREDIR

Not really a goog idea!!! It's better to let postgis-prefix=/usr/local by default

I will copy *.sql done by postgis manually (*.sql + doc + man)

ok thanks :-)

However Sandro I think it will be a great idea to let for win32 Path_to_PosttGIS_library = $lidbir even if user give '--prefix=...' when he uses configure

I mean for win32 it's better to have 

EXT     = (\$$libdir)

instead of 

EXT   :=   ${exec_prefix}/$/libexec when we use configure

So I will not have to replace EXT by libdir in lwpostgis.sql since PostgreSLQ doesn't support /c/ in path

  I've reworked iconv detection code to be more conservative.
  It should now be enabled only if the c library provide that functionality.
  (no external libiconv supported).

  This should remove the need of manually edit Makefile.config
