frameworks, and components without configure scripts instead of
hard-coded shell variables (for projects and frameworks) and
shell variable building (for components).
* Add 3rd category of component configuration (in addition to configure
scripts and no-configured components): configure.m4 components. These
components can only be built as part of OMPI (like no-configure), but
can provide an m4 file that is run as part of the main configure
script. These macros can set whether the component should be built,
along with just about any other configuration wanted. More care must
be taken compared to configure components, as doing things like setting
variables or calling AC_MSG_ERROR now affects the top-level configure
script (so calling AC_MSG_ERROR if your component can't configure
probably isn't what you want)
* Added support to autogen.sh for the configure.m4-style components,
as well as building up the m4_define lists ompi_mca.m4 now expects
* Updated a number of macros to be more config.cache friendly (both
so that config.cache can be used and so the test can be quickly
run multiple times in the same configrue script):
- ompi_config_asm
- c_weak_symbols
- c_get_alignment
* Added new macros to be shared when configuring components:
- ompi_objc.m4 (this actually provides AC_PROG_OBJC - don't ask...)
- ompi_check_xgrid
- ompi_check_tm
- ompi_check_bproc
* Updated a number of components to use configure.m4 instead of
configure.stub
- btl portals
- io romio
- tm ras and pls
- bjs, lsf_bproc ras and bproc_seed pls
- xgrid ras and pls
- null iof (used by tm)
