Synopsis
</h2>
<p class="indent" style="white-space:nowrap;">
<code>AC_C_COMPILE_VALUE (COMPILE-VALUE, ALIAS, INCLUDES)</code>
</p>
<h2>
Description
</h2>
<div class="indent">
<p>
The AC_C_COMPILE_VALUE macro determines a compile time value by generating
the object code and reading the value from the code. Static data
initializers like sizeof(int) are unavailable to preprocessor. The macro
calculates the values known to compiler's static initializer.
</p>
<p>
Assumptions: The sought value should not exceed 65535. The shell
interpreter and the sed utility are expected to exist and work similarly
across possible build platforms.
</p>
<p>
Result: The resulting configure script will generate the preprocessor
symbol definition:
</p>
<pre>
#define COMPILE_VALUE_<ALIAS> <NUMBER>
</pre>
<p>
It was important that the value was embedded into the object file in a
predefined byte order during the test. This ensured that the result was
independent from the target platform's byte order.
</p>
<p>
The existing AC_CHECK_SIZEOF macro also computes the size of the given type
without running the test program. However, the existing macro will produce
a piece of configure script that will take the time proportional to the
logarithm of the sought value.
</p>
<p>
Example of use in configure.in:
</p>
<pre>
AC_C_COMPILE_VALUE(sizeof(int), sizeof_int)
AC_C_COMPILE_VALUE([sizeof(int[[543]])], sizeof_int543)
</pre>
<p>
As a result of runnfing the generated configure script, the following
definition will appear in config.h:
</p>
<pre>
#define COMPILE_VALUE_SIZEOF_INT 4
#define COMPILE_VALUE_SIZEOF_INT543 2172
</pre>
