The Libtool Team is pleased to announce alpha release 1.4b of GNU libtool.
This is the first release to include the code that has been in development on
the multi-language-branch for the last 18 months or so, that was recently
merged into the mainline development sources.
libtool-1.4b is available now from alpha.gnu.org and via anonymous CVS, using
the tag release-1-4b. See
http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/libtool.html#AnonymousCVS for
instructions on how to retrieve libtool from anonymous cvs. Diffs and xdeltas
from 1.4 to 1.4b are also available from the ftp server.
The most important user-visible changes since release 1.4 follow:
New in 1.4b: 2001-07-09
* Now bootstraps with autoconf-2.50 and automake-1.4-p4.
* Always try to build at least a static lib, even if both static and
shared libs were disabled.
* Full support for C++ compiler.
* Support for GNU gcj compiler.
* libltdl can now load all modules in a given path according to user
supplied criteria with `lt_dlforeachfile' call.
* Improved support for AIX ia64, djgpp, HPUX, hurd, OpenBSD, sco3.2*.
* Internal mutex handling no longer has namespace clashes on NCR MP-RAS.
* New pdemo and tagdemo tests.
* Bug fixes.
Happy libtooling!
The libtool team.
