Hi Everyone, I have a question on the GNU Coding Standards and the Standard Targets detailed at 7.2.6 Standard Targets for Users (https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Standard-Targets.html).
We are a C++ class library and not a program (https://www.cryptopp.com/). The primary artifacts are library headers, a static archive and a shared object. We offer a test program to exercise the library but I don't think anyone uses it. We recently received a request for a make recipe that installs the library only, which would be the primary artifacts of headers, a static archive and a shared object. The request wants to avoid the test program and the test data files. Looking at the coding standards I don't see a standard target for the recipe. What is the convention for installing (1) the library only and (2) the library with a test program? How should we align the targets? Thanks in advance, Jeffrey Walton Baltimore, MD US
