compiling log4cpp with custom toolchain

Question

I am using log4cpp in our project. As we need to support various distributions of Linux, I have built a custom tool chain to build our project. Since my project is built with a custom tool chain, should I also build log4cpp with the same tool chain?

I can successfully build log4cpp using native compiler using the three simple commands as mentioned in it's web page.

./configure
make 
make install 

But this library is not working with our custom built binary. I am new to Linux, So can't figure out the file to change for compiling with custom compiler. For example our custom tools are present in /usr/custom/g++.

Can I build a static library of log4cpp ans use in our project? I am using Ubuntu 14.0 for compilation. Please help

Answer 1

I just passed a parameter to the first command like the following

./configure CXX = /usr/custom/g++

When I run the make command, it automatically picked up the custom compiler and used it.
