A build dependency to compile a native library that uses autotools or
a compatible configure script + make.
It is based on cmake-rs and the API tries to be as similar as possible to it.
# Cargo.toml
[build-dependencies]
autotools = "0.2"// build.rs
use autotools;
// Build the project in the path `foo` and installs it in `$OUT_DIR`
let dst = autotools::build("foo");
// Simply link the library without using pkg-config
println!("cargo:rustc-link-search=native={}", dst.display());
println!("cargo:rustc-link-lib=static=foo");// build.rs
use autotools::Config;
let dst = Config::new("foo")

.disable("otherfeature", None)
.without("otherdep", None)
.cflag("-Wall")
.build();
