[Mono-dev] Help on deploying library to gac using autotools

2009-02-01 Thread amrhassan 

Hi, I'm not an autotools expert. I just want to create a package to
distribute my lib into GAC. I signed my library and everything, I created
the Makefiles using the addin from MonoDevelop but I don't know how to get
it to install the lib into GAC instead of PREFIX/lib.

Can someone please help me with that?

The way this is usually done is by building the assembly as a
noinst_DATA target and adding something like:

install-data-local:
  $(GACUTIL) /i $(ASSEMBLY) /f || exit 1;

uninstall-local:
  $(GACUTIL) /u $(ASSEMBLY_NAME) /f || exit 1;

ASSEMBLY_NAME is the name of your assembly without the .dll extension.
ASSEMBLY includes the .dll.

GACUTIL is setup in configure.in as:

AC_PATH_PROG(GACUTIL, gacutil, no)
if test x$GACUTIL = xno ; then
AC_MSG_ERROR([No gacutil tool found. You need to install either
the mono or .Net SDK.])
fi
AC_SUBST(GACUTIL)
