Forwarded from the Autoconf group... thanks for looking into this! -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Documentation of AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11 on Autoconf macro archives Date: 2017-01-22 07:39 From: Robert Hairgrove <[email protected]> To: [email protected] This is more of a documentation bug. In the introduction on this page, it is mentioned that one must also install the macro AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX in order to use it: https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx_11.html What is NOT mentioned is that it is also necessary to install AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED if you don't already have it. I didn't have it, and as a result got errors in configure about a "possibly undefined macro AC_MSG_WARN". Fortunately, it was easy to spot by looking at the line number in configure which appeared in the error message. But it would have saved me some time if it had been mentioned in the same page. I am using version 2.69 of autoconf.
