A test project to get better acquainted with autotools.

This is a very simple C++ project to explore the usage of autotools. It contains a primary executable emtest and a shared library libemitter. Here is an example of the install footprint on OSX (with PREFIX=/usr/local)

.
└── usr
    └── local
        ├── bin
        │   └── emtest
        ├── include
        │   └── emitter
        │       ├── canemit.h
        │       └── emitter.h
        └── lib
            ├── libemitter.0.dylib
            ├── libemitter.a
            ├── libemitter.dylib -> libemitter.0.dylib
            └── libemitter.la

Have autotools and a C++ compiler installed.

First, generate configure from configure.ac:

autoreconf --install

Then either compile locally:

./configure
make
make install

Or create a package for distribution:

./configure
make distcheck
