Hello,

I need in an autoconf to check the usability of a program for
compilation purpose. Such program take 2 files as input and provides
an output. I don't care the output, just the exit status (for now).
However, browsing the autoconf doc, i can't find how to do the
following, which is mandatory for such a check

1) have configure create the two temporary file using content provided
inside configure.am
2) have configure run a program and check it's exit status

There are a lot of autoconf macro relating to build and testing code,
but i don't need to build anything, i just need to check program
behave as expected with 2 specific file contents.


Note, the purpose is to discover a suitable command line XSLT
processor. If someone is aware such macro already exist, please inform
me too :)


Thanks
