8

+ # DESCRIPTION
10
+ #
11
+ # This macro compares two version strings. Due to the various number of
12
+ # minor-version numbers that can exist, and the fact that string
13
+ # comparisons are not compatible with numeric comparisons, this is not
14
+ # necessarily trivial to do in a autoconf script. This macro makes doing
15
+ # these comparisons easy.
16
+ #
17
+ # The six basic comparisons are available, as well as checking equality
18
+ # limited to a certain number of minor-version levels.
19
+ #
20
+ # The operator OP determines what type of comparison to do, and can be one
21
+ # of:
22
+ #
23
+ # eq - equal (test A == B)
24
+ # ne - not equal (test A != B)
25
+ # le - less than or equal (test A <= B)
26
+ # ge - greater than or equal (test A >= B)
27
+ # lt - less than (test A < B)
28
+ # gt - greater than (test A > B)
29
+ #
30
+ # Additionally, the eq and ne operator can have a number after it to limit
31
+ # the test to that number of minor versions.
32
+ #
33
+ # eq0 - equal up to the length of the shorter version
34
+ # ne0 - not equal up to the length of the shorter version
35
+ # eqN - equal up to N sub-version levels
36
+ # neN - not equal up to N sub-version levels
37
+ #
38
+ # When the condition is true, shell commands ACTION-IF-TRUE are run,
39
+ # otherwise shell commands ACTION-IF-FALSE are run. The environment
40
+ # variable 'ax_compare_version' is always set to either 'true' or 'false'
41
+ # as well.
42
+ #
43
+ # Examples:
44
+ #
45
+ # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15.7],[lt],[3.15.8])
46
+ # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15],[lt],[3.15.8])
47
+ #
48
+ # would both be true.
49
+ #
50
+ # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15.7],[eq],[3.15.8])
51
+ # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15],[gt],[3.15.8])
52
+ #
53
+ # would both be false.
54
+ #
55
+ # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15.7],[eq2],[3.15.8])
56
+ #
57
+ # would be true because it is only comparing two minor versions.
58
+ #
59
+ # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15.7],[eq0],[3.15])
60
+ #
61
+ # would be true because it is only comparing the lesser number of minor
62
+ # versions of the two values.
63
+ #
64
+ # Note: The characters that separate the version numbers do not matter. An
65
+ # empty string is the same as version 0. OP is evaluated by autoconf, not
66
+ # configure, so must be a string, not a variable.
67
+ #
68
+ # The author would like to acknowledge Guido Draheim whose advice about
69
+ # the m4_case and m4_ifvaln functions make this macro only include the
70
+ # portions necessary to perform the specific comparison specified by the
71
+ # OP argument in the final configure script.
