1# NTP_CACHEVERSION(component, version)
2# ------------------------------------
3# compare this configure script's cache version stamp with the stamp
4# saved by the prior run in config.cache.  If they differ, clear all
5# cache variables to avoid using results cached with a script that
6# is known to differ in a cache-invalidating manner.
7#
8# Note: use immediately following AC_INIT in configure.ac, as clearing
9# all _cv_ variables only makes sense immediately after loading, before
10# use or modification.
11#
12# The top-level configure.ac in a subtree using NTP_CACHEVERSION
13# will clear a previous cache lacking any saved cache version number,
14# while children do not.  This comes into play only when introducing
15# NTP_CACHEVERSION where it had not been previously used:  Previous
16# cached results are presumed incompatible and not used.  The reason
17# children do not flush the cache is it is shared with the parent and
18# the children can rely on the parent having cleared any cache variables
19# predating this mechanism.  Therefore the child can rely on the
20# config.cache generated by the parent on the first run despite not
21# finding the child version stamp in it.
