AC_CHECK_LIB for shared libraries

[Felix Brack]

Hello,

After reading the autoconf manual and the post
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2003-09/msg00028.html from
Sander I have the following question: Is there a macro working like
AC_CHECK_LIB for shared libraries or do I have to write it myself?

What I am looking for is something like AC_CHECK_LIBSO. Basically it
would do the same job as AC_CHECK_LIB, just add the library (if found)
to LDADD without prefixing it with the '-l'.

As other people also use shared libraries, it's hard to imagine that
such a macro should not already exist and do not wont to be the one
reinventing the wheel.

many thanks
