# ===========================================================================
#
# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_C_COMPILE_VALUE (COMPILE-VALUE, ALIAS, INCLUDES)
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   The AX_C_COMPILE_VALUE macro determines a compile time value by
#   generating the object code and reading the value from the code. Static
#   data initializers like sizeof(int) are unavailable to preprocessor. The
#   macro calculates the values known to compiler's static initializer.
#
#   Assumptions: The sought value should not exceed 65535. The shell
#   interpreter and the sed utility are expected to exist and work similarly
#   across possible build platforms.
#
#   Result: The resulting configure script will generate the preprocessor
#   symbol definition:
#
#     #define COMPILE_VALUE_<ALIAS> <NUMBER>
#
#   It was important that the value was embedded into the object file in a
#   predefined byte order during the test. This ensured that the result was
#   independent from the target platform's byte order.
#
#   The existing AC_CHECK_SIZEOF macro also computes the size of the given
#   type without running the test program. However, the existing macro will
#   produce a piece of configure script that will take the time proportional
#   to the logarithm of the sought value.
#
#   Example of use in configure.in:
#
#     AX_C_COMPILE_VALUE(sizeof(int), sizeof_int)
#     AX_C_COMPILE_VALUE([sizeof(int[[543]])], sizeof_int543)
#
#   As a result of running the generated configure script, the following
#   definition will appear in config.h:
#
#     #define COMPILE_VALUE_SIZEOF_INT 4
#     #define COMPILE_VALUE_SIZEOF_INT543 2172
