Re: [bug-gawk] awk extension in c++

[Aharon Robbins]

Hi.

Sorry the delay in replying.  Can you describe what you've tried to do
to build your extension and what's not working?  There are instructions
in the manual on compiling, and using the autotools should not strictly
be necessary if you're using GCC and GNU Make.

Otherwise, you can look at the configure.ac in the extensions/ directory
of the gawk dist for some hints. :-)

I think you're the first person to try to write an extension in C++ (as
opposed to C); I will be interested to hear your experiences.

Thanks,

Arnold
