9 # DESCRIPTION |
|
|
10 # |
|
|
11 # This macro figures out how to build C programs using POSIX threads. It |
|
|
12 # sets the PTHREAD_LIBS output variable to the threads library and linker |
|
|
13 # flags, and the PTHREAD_CFLAGS output variable to any special C compiler |
|
|
14 # flags that are needed. (The user can also force certain compiler |
|
|
15 # flags/libs to be tested by setting these environment variables.) |
|
|
16 # |
|
|
17 # Also sets PTHREAD_CC to any special C compiler that is needed for |
|
|
18 # multi-threaded programs (defaults to the value of CC otherwise). (This |
|
|
19 # is necessary on AIX to use the special cc_r compiler alias.) |
|
|
20 # |
|
|
21 # NOTE: You are assumed to not only compile your program with these flags, |
|
|
22 # but also link it with them as well. e.g. you should link with |
|
|
23 # $PTHREAD_CC $CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS $LDFLAGS ... $PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS |
|
|
24 # |
|
|
25 # If you are only building threads programs, you may wish to use these |
|
|
26 # variables in your default LIBS, CFLAGS, and CC: |
|
|
27 # |
|
10951
|
28 # LIBS="$PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS" |
|
|
29 # CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS" |
|
|
30 # CC="$PTHREAD_CC" |
|
9497
|
31 # |
|
|
32 # In addition, if the PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE thread-attribute constant |
|
|
33 # has a nonstandard name, defines PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE to that name |
|
|
34 # (e.g. PTHREAD_CREATE_UNDETACHED on AIX). |
|
|
35 # |
|
|
36 # ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if a threads library |
|
|
37 # is found, and ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of commands to run it if it |
|
|
38 # is not found. If ACTION-IF-FOUND is not specified, the default action |
|
|
39 # will define HAVE_PTHREAD. |
|
|
40 # |
|
|
41 # Please let the authors know if this macro fails on any platform, or if |
|
|
42 # you have any other suggestions or comments. This macro was based on work |
|
|
43 # by SGJ on autoconf scripts for FFTW (http://www.fftw.org/) (with help |
|
|
44 # from M. Frigo), as well as ac_pthread and hb_pthread macros posted by |
|
|
45 # Alejandro Forero Cuervo to the autoconf macro repository. We are also |
|
|
46 # grateful for the helpful feedback of numerous users. |
