| 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. |
