5 # SYNOPSIS

7 # AX_COMPARE_VERSION(VERSION_A, OP, VERSION_B, [ACTION-IF-TRUE], [ACTION-IF-FALSE])
8 #
9 # DESCRIPTION
10 #
11 # This macro compares two version strings. Due to the various number of
12 # minor-version numbers that can exist, and the fact that string
13 # comparisons are not compatible with numeric comparisons, this is not
14 # necessarily trivial to do in a autoconf script. This macro makes doing
15 # these comparisons easy.
16 #
17 # The six basic comparisons are available, as well as checking equality
18 # limited to a certain number of minor-version levels.
19 #
20 # The operator OP determines what type of comparison to do, and can be one
21 # of:
22 #
23 # eq - equal (test A == B)
24 # ne - not equal (test A != B)
25 # le - less than or equal (test A <= B)
26 # ge - greater than or equal (test A >= B)
27 # lt - less than (test A < B)
28 # gt - greater than (test A > B)
29 #
30 # Additionally, the eq and ne operator can have a number after it to limit
31 # the test to that number of minor versions.
32 #
33 # eq0 - equal up to the length of the shorter version
34 # ne0 - not equal up to the length of the shorter version
35 # eqN - equal up to N sub-version levels
36 # neN - not equal up to N sub-version levels
37 #
38 # When the condition is true, shell commands ACTION-IF-TRUE are run,
39 # otherwise shell commands ACTION-IF-FALSE are run. The environment
40 # variable 'ax_compare_version' is always set to either 'true' or 'false'
41 # as well.
42 #
43 # Examples:
44 #
45 # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15.7],[lt],[3.15.8])
46 # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15],[lt],[3.15.8])
47 #
48 # would both be true.
49 #
50 # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15.7],[eq],[3.15.8])
51 # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15],[gt],[3.15.8])
52 #
53 # would both be false.
54 #
55 # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15.7],[eq2],[3.15.8])
56 #
57 # would be true because it is only comparing two minor versions.
58 #
59 # AX_COMPARE_VERSION([3.15.7],[eq0],[3.15])
60 #
61 # would be true because it is only comparing the lesser number of minor
62 # versions of the two values.
63 #
64 # Note: The characters that separate the version numbers do not matter. An
65 # empty string is the same as version 0. OP is evaluated by autoconf, not
66 # configure, so must be a string, not a variable.
67 #
68 # The author would like to acknowledge Guido Draheim whose advice about
69 # the m4_case and m4_ifvaln functions make this macro only include the
70 # portions necessary to perform the specific comparison specified by the
71 # OP argument in the final configure script.
