Re: CC configure (AC_CHECK_LIB macro) problem on Solaris

What is the recommended way of doing it as I am adding a module which
requires library checks and I don't know always what function is best to
check on ?

Thank you
Markus

Interesting..
Those kinds of checks ae being phased out of the configure.in script,
unless they are hidden by other macros. In general using main to test
for lib existence is IIRC not recommended by autoconf docs..
I find it fascinating that those bugs are not caught on OpenSolaris
(we have build-hosts running SunStudio cc)
