  5. # SYNOPSIS

  7. # AX_PTHREAD([ACTION-IF-FOUND[, ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND]])
  8. #
  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 $LIBS
  24. #
  25. # If you are only building threads programs, you may wish to use these
  26. # variables in your default LIBS, CFLAGS, and CC:
  27. #
  28. # LIBS="$PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS"
  29. # CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS"
  30. # CC="$PTHREAD_CC"
  31. #
  32. # In addition, if the PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE thread-attribute constant
  33. # has a nonstandard name, defines PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE to that name
  34. # (e.g. PTHREAD_CREATE_UNDETACHED on AIX).
  35. #
  36. # Also HAVE_PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT is defined if pthread is found and the
  37. # PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT symbol is defined when compiling with
  38. # PTHREAD_CFLAGS.
  39. #
  40. # ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if a threads library
  41. # is found, and ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of commands to run it if it
  42. # is not found. If ACTION-IF-FOUND is not specified, the default action
  43. # will define HAVE_PTHREAD.
  44. #
  45. # Please let the authors know if this macro fails on any platform, or if
  46. # you have any other suggestions or comments. This macro was based on work
  47. # by SGJ on autoconf scripts for FFTW (http://www.fftw.org/) (with help
  48. # from M. Frigo), as well as ac_pthread and hb_pthread macros posted by
  49. # Alejandro Forero Cuervo to the autoconf macro repository. We are also
  50. # grateful for the helpful feedback of numerous users.
