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