| 3 # SYNOPSIS |
| 4 # |
| 5 # ACX_PTHREAD([ACTION-IF-FOUND[, ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND]]) |
| 6 # |
| 7 # DESCRIPTION |
| 8 # |
| 9 # This macro figures out how to build C programs using POSIX threads. |
| 10 # It sets the PTHREAD_LIBS output variable to the threads library and |
| 11 # linker flags, and the PTHREAD_CFLAGS output variable to any special |
| 12 # C compiler flags that are needed. (The user can also force certain |
| 13 # compiler flags/libs to be tested by setting these environment |
| 14 # variables.) |
| 15 # |
| 16 # Also sets PTHREAD_CC to any special C compiler that is needed for |
| 17 # multi-threaded programs (defaults to the value of CC otherwise). |
| 18 # (This is necessary on AIX to use the special cc_r compiler alias.) |
| 19 # |
| 20 # NOTE: You are assumed to not only compile your program with these |
| 21 # flags, but also link it with them as well. e.g. you should link |
| 22 # with $PTHREAD_CC $CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS $LDFLAGS ... $PTHREAD_LIBS |
| 23 # $LIBS |
| 24 # |
| 25 # If you are only building threads programs, you may wish to use |
| 26 # these variables in your default LIBS, CFLAGS, and CC: |
| 27 # |
| 28 # LIBS="$PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS" |
| 29 # CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS" |
| 30 # CC="$PTHREAD_CC" |
| 31 # |
| 32 # In addition, if the PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE thread-attribute |
| 33 # constant has a nonstandard name, defines PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE to |
| 34 # that name (e.g. PTHREAD_CREATE_UNDETACHED on AIX). |
| 35 # |
| 36 # ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if a threads |
| 37 # library is found, and ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of commands to |
| 38 # run it if it is not found. If ACTION-IF-FOUND is not specified, the |
| 39 # default action will define HAVE_PTHREAD. |
| 40 # |
| 41 # Please let the authors know if this macro fails on any platform, or |
| 42 # if you have any other suggestions or comments. This macro was based |
| 43 # on work by SGJ on autoconf scripts for FFTW (http://www.fftw.org/) |
| 44 # (with help from M. Frigo), as well as ac_pthread and hb_pthread |
| 45 # macros posted by Alejandro Forero Cuervo to the autoconf macro |
| 46 # repository. We are also grateful for the helpful feedback of |
| 47 # numerous users. |
