9.9 Assembly Support

Automake includes some support for assembly code.

The variable CCAS holds the name of the compiler used to build assembly code. This compiler must work a bit like a C compiler; in particular it must accept `-c' and `-o'. The value of CCASFLAGS is passed to the compilation.

You are required to set CCAS and CCASFLAGS via `configure.in'. The autoconf macro AM_PROG_AS will do this for you. Unless they are already set, it simply sets CCAS to the C compiler and CCASFLAGS to the C compiler flags.

Only the suffixes `.s' and `.S' are recognized by automake as being files containing assembly code.
