** [tickets:#901] build: Modernize autotools configuration**

**Status:** accepted
**Milestone:** 4.5.FC
**Created:** Mon May 12, 2014 01:35 PM UTC by Anders Widell
**Last Updated:** Mon May 12, 2014 01:35 PM UTC
**Owner:** Anders Widell

When running the bootstrap.sh script on a modern Linux distribution like Ubuntu 
14.04, several warnings are generated by the autotools. These warnings should 
be fixed so that our build system is forwards compatible with future versions 
of autotools.

autoconf 2.69 gives e.g. the following warning:

    configure.ac:25: warning: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: two- and three-arguments forms 
are deprecated.  For more info, see:
    configure.ac:25: 
http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Modernize-AM_005fINIT_005fAUTOMAKE-invocation

-------------------

automake 1.14.1 gives e.g. the following warning:

    java/ais_api_impl_native/Makefile.am:53: warning: source file 
'$(top_srcdir)/java/ais_api_impl_native/j_ais.c' is in a subdirectory,
    java/ais_api_impl_native/Makefile.am:53: but option 'subdir-objects' is 
disabled
    automake: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
    automake: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the 
'subdir-objects'
    automake: automake option hasn't been enabled.  For now, the corresponding 
output
    automake: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory.  
However,
    automake: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
    automake: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same 
subdirectory
    automake: of the corresponding sources.
    automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout 
your
    automake: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.
