I'm reluctant to do a full AC_CHECK_HEADER here because that will only succeed if we enable C++ in the configure script, and right now the extra overhead of enabling C++ in libtool doesn't seem worth it. As such, we could just do an AC_PREPROC_IFELSE here. (Obviously the back-ndb Makefile requires C++, and it's currently a hack that assumes g++. Frankly I'm revolted at the use of C++ here, but NDB doesn't offer a pure C alternative. I'm stromgly opposed to incurring the overhead of C++ support across the rest of the source tree just for this backend.) -- -- Howard Chu CTO, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/
