My project consists in a library and a sample apache module that depends on this library.
The directory structure I have chosen is the following:
my_project (contains configure.ac and top Makefile.am)
-> includes (the includes to be installed to use the library,
used by sources and random_module)
-> sources (the sources of the library)
-> random_module (the sample)I have tried to set up configure.ac and Makefile.am reading info documentation, actually I'm able to compile the project but I have still some problems.
1. make install installs the library and the sample module, but does
not install the headers
2. the library built in sources and the apache module are compiled
using libtool, I was able to introduce a dependence between the
module and the library but libtool statically links in the
library. I would like the sample module to be linked with the
shared library, how can I do that?Here are my configure.ac and makefile.am, every comment will be apreciated, I have a lot to learn about autoconf & automake
configure.ac

AC_OUTPUT()the Makefile.am in includes directory, does not work, if I call make install from includes headers get installed, i I call make install from the top directory headers does not gets installed.
include_HEADERS = gb_allocators.h gb_pthreadstuff.h gb_new.h gb_Pool_Allocator.h
The Makefile.am in random_module directory, compiling it libgbap il statically linked, I would like to link random_module to libgbap shared object.
