Subject: bug#32763: 26.1; emacs-module.h isn't installed with Emacs for module development
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2018 20:08:10 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180918180810.yu2em4j4635xbou4@odonien.localdomain> (raw)
I've recently developed a simple module and ran into a surprising issue
with the skeleton: I couldn't locate the emacs-module.h in my system
matching the Emacs installation the module is compiled against. I
eventually gave up and just bundled the emacs-module.h from a Git
checkout with my module's source code. It makes up for most of the code
in the project.
This is far from ideal. If I give an Emacs user the source code of a
module without that header file, they can't easily compile it for their
system. This severely hamper a workflow where a package manager would
be extended to handle module compilation as I haven't found other Emacs
modules bundling the header file. Is this an oversight in the
installation process or a deliberate design decision?
