| # SYNOPSIS |
| # |
| # AX_PTHREAD([ACTION-IF-FOUND[, ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND]]) |
| # |
| # DESCRIPTION |
| # |
| # This macro figures out how to build C programs using POSIX threads. It |
| # sets the PTHREAD_LIBS output variable to the threads library and linker |
| # flags, and the PTHREAD_CFLAGS output variable to any special C compiler |
| # flags that are needed. (The user can also force certain compiler |
| # flags/libs to be tested by setting these environment variables.) |
| # |
| # Also sets PTHREAD_CC to any special C compiler that is needed for |
| # multi-threaded programs (defaults to the value of CC otherwise). (This |
| # is necessary on AIX to use the special cc_r compiler alias.) |
| # |
| # NOTE: You are assumed to not only compile your program with these flags, |
| # but also link it with them as well. e.g. you should link with |
| # $PTHREAD_CC $CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS $LDFLAGS ... $PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS |
| # |
| # If you are only building threads programs, you may wish to use these |
| # variables in your default LIBS, CFLAGS, and CC: |
| # |
| # LIBS="$PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS" |
| # CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS" |
| # CC="$PTHREAD_CC" |
| # |
| # In addition, if the PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE thread-attribute constant |
| # has a nonstandard name, defines PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE to that name |
| # (e.g. PTHREAD_CREATE_UNDETACHED on AIX). |
| # |
| # ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if a threads library |
| # is found, and ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of commands to run it if it |
| # is not found. If ACTION-IF-FOUND is not specified, the default action |
| # will define HAVE_PTHREAD. |
| # |
| # Please let the authors know if this macro fails on any platform, or if |
| # you have any other suggestions or comments. This macro was based on work |
| # by SGJ on autoconf scripts for FFTW (http://www.fftw.org/) (with help |
| # from M. Frigo), as well as ac_pthread and hb_pthread macros posted by |
| # Alejandro Forero Cuervo to the autoconf macro repository. We are also |
| # grateful for the helpful feedback of numerous users. |

| # -kthread: FreeBSD kernel threads (preferred to -pthread since SMP-able) |
| # lthread: LinuxThreads port on FreeBSD (also preferred to -pthread) |
| # -pthread: Linux/gcc (kernel threads), BSD/gcc (userland threads) |
| # -pthreads: Solaris/gcc |
| # -mthreads: Mingw32/gcc, Lynx/gcc |
| # -mt: Sun Workshop C (may only link SunOS threads [-lthread], but it |
| # doesn't hurt to check since this sometimes defines pthreads too; |
| # also defines -D_REENTRANT) |
| # ... -mt is also the pthreads flag for HP/aCC |
