gmp fails to create gmpxx.h

[Tovrea, George W (US SSA)]

Thanks, I found it. I was surprised it was not moved to the directory where I did the build, but now that I know...

I believe ppl uses gmpxx.h so it's configure can kill two birds with one stone. Ppl requires that gmp be built with --enable-cxx, so if it cannot find the gmpxx.h file, it assumes that gmp was not built with --enable-cxx. Also, since gmpxx.h includes gmp.h, where the actual version info is specified, it can still check the version.

Regards,
Bill T.

Look in the source directory.

(But I don't think gmpxx.h is a good place to look for GMP version.)
