Re: gEDA-dev: hids

Thanks Dan,

I'll give it a try tonight (GMT+1).

Maybe your info could go in the devel-tips part of the geda wiki to be of
assistance to future developers of HIDS. 

Kind regards,

Bert Timmerman.

edit configure.ac in the top level directory.  If you need any external libs
for dxf, take a look at the way the png hid works (just search for png).
Otherwise look at how "bom" shows up (really simple, you just list "dxf" in
the 1 line where "bom" shows up).

Now edit src/Makefile.am and again, use the bom hid as a guide.  You'll want
to add libdxf.a to EXTRA_LIBRARIES, add $(srcdir)/hid/dxf/hid.conf to
EXTRA_DIST, and add

libdxf_a_SOURCES = \
	hid/hidint.h \
	hid/dxf/dxf.c

finally, you may or may not need to add hid/dxf/dxf_lists.h to BUILT_SOURCES
-- look at the ps or png hid's here for example.s


Now that you have edited configure.ac and Makefile.am run "./autogen.sh" 
from the top directory.  This recreates configure and all of the 
Makefile.in's.  Now you should be able to ./configure and have it all 
Just Work.
