Build: add version check on flex
[babeltrace.git] / m4 / ax_prog_flex_version.m4
1 # SYNOPSIS
2 #
3 # AX_PROG_FLEX_VERSION([VERSION],[ACTION-IF-TRUE],[ACTION-IF-FALSE])
4 #
5 # DESCRIPTION
6 #
7 # Makes sure that flex version is greater or equal to the version indicated.
8 # If true the shell commands in ACTION-IF-TRUE are executed. If not the shell
9 # commands in commands in ACTION-IF-TRUE are executed. If not the shell
10 # commands in ACTION-IF-FALSE are run. Note if $FLEX is not set (for example
11 # by running AC_CHECK_PROG or AC_PATH_PROG) the macro will fail.
12 #
13 # Example:
14 #
15 # AC_PATH_PROG([FLEX],[flex])
16 # AX_PROG_FLEX_VERSION([2.5.39],[ ... ],[ ... ])
17 #
18 # This will check to make sure that the flex you have is at least
19 # version 2.5.39 or greater.
20 #
21 # NOTE: This macro uses the $FLEX variable to perform the check.
