What about ax_boost_base.m4?

[Paul Elliott]

I am using autoconf and automake and also the boost libraries.

In the past I have had problems, because different distros
had different versions of boost, installed in different places,
sometimes with sightly different .so names.

I have found on the web something called ax_boost_base.m4
in the Autoconf Macro Archive. Is this in some sense part of
autoconf/automake or is it an unofficial addon?


Will it find out where the boost include/lib files are and
figure out the version for me?

What is the best way to use boost with the auto* tools?

Thank You.
