Subject: How to set a configure option for the gdb subdirectory
Date: Fri, 31 Dec 2021 17:31:12 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1702189149.385292.1640971872347@mail.yahoo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1702189149.385292.1640971872347.ref@mail.yahoo.com>
I'm building gdb from source - I'd like to set an option specific to the gdb/configure script - not the top-level binutils-gdb/configure script
For example I'd like to set --with-separate-debug-dir or --enable-gdbmi
How do I do this?
Is there a way to pass sub-configure options for the gdb subdirectory to the top-level configure command?
Or do I run both the top-level binutils-gdb/configure and gdb/configure scripts?
If so do I run the top-level configure first and then the subdirectory configure or the other way around?
And do I make sure common options like --prefix are consistently set in both invocations or can I set --prefix for just the top-level configure and skip for the gdb sub-configure?
