dnl @synopsis AC_CXX_OLD_FOR_SCOPING dnl dnl If the compiler accepts the old for scoping rules (the scope of a dnl variable declared inside the parentheses extends outside the dnl for-body), define HAVE_OLD_FOR_SCOPING. Note that some dnl compilers (notably g++ and egcs) support both new and old dnl rules since they accept the old rules and only generate a warning. dnl dnl @version $Id: ac_cxx_old_for_scoping.m4,v 1.1.1.1 2001/07/26 00:46 ac-archive-0.5.39 $ dnl @author Luc Maisonobe dnl AC_DEFUN([AC_CXX_OLD_FOR_SCOPING], [AC_CACHE_CHECK(whether the compiler accepts the old for scoping rules, ac_cv_cxx_old_for_scoping, [AC_LANG_SAVE AC_LANG_CPLUSPLUS AC_TRY_COMPILE(,[int z;for (int i=0; i < 10; ++i)z=z+i;z=i;return z;], ac_cv_cxx_old_for_scoping=yes, ac_cv_cxx_old_for_scoping=no) AC_LANG_RESTORE ]) if test "$ac_cv_cxx_old_for_scoping" = yes; then AC_DEFINE(HAVE_OLD_FOR_SCOPING,,[define if the compiler accepts the old for scoping rules]) fi ])
