Ralf Wildenhues 2c74a340 2009-04-13T23:17:39 silent-rules reorganization, --enable-silent-rules switch. This patch introduces a configure-time option to set the default verbosity. Since configure now needs to know whether the `silent-rules' automake option was set, the latter can only be set within AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, or with a new AM_SILENT_RULES macro but not any more through AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS or the automake command line option `--silent-rules'. * automake.in (define_verbose_var): Define the default verbose variable in terms of `$(AM_DEFAULT_VERBOSITY)'. (handle_configure): Do not pass `--silent-rules' to automake. (scan_autoconf_traces): Trace `AM_SILENT_RULES'. If seen, enable global `silent-rules' option. (usage): Do not document `--silent-rules'. (parse_arguments): Do not accept `--silent-rules'. * doc/automake.texi (Options): Overhaul. Document AM_SILENT_RULES, --enable-silent-rules, --disable-silent-rules, AM_DEFAULT_VERBOSITY. Show an example for user-added variables for less verbose output. (Invoking Automake): Remove documentation for `--silent-rules'. (Public Macros): Document `AM_SILENT_RULES'. * NEWS: Update. * lib/Automake/Options.pm (_process_option_list): Accept `silent-rules' only as option in configure.ac. * m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): If the `silent-rules' option was enabled, require `AM_SILENT_RULES'; move AM_BACKSLASH initialization to ... * m4/silent.m4 (AM_SILENT_RULES): ... this new file, new macro.
