ax_with_perl

Synopsis

AX_WITH_PERL([VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND],[PATH])

Description

Locates an installed Perl binary, placing the result in the precious variable $PERL. Accepts a present $PERL, then --with-perl, and failing that searches for perl in the given path (which defaults to the system path). If perl is found, $PERL is set to the full path of the binary; if it is not found $PERL is set to VALUE-IF-NOT-FOUND if provided, unchanged otherwise.

A typical use could be the following one:

      AX_WITH_PERL
