5# SYNOPSIS
6#
7# AX_GCC_OPTION(OPTION,EXTRA-OPTIONS,TEST-PROGRAM,ACTION-IF-SUCCESSFUL,ACTION-IF-NOT-SUCCESFUL)
8#
9# DESCRIPTION
10#
11# AX_GCC_OPTION checks wheter gcc accepts the passed OPTION. If it accepts
12# the OPTION then ACTION-IF-SUCCESSFUL will be executed, otherwise
13# ACTION-IF-UNSUCCESSFUL.
14#
15# NOTE: This macro will be obsoleted by AX_C_CHECK_FLAG AX_CXX_CHECK_FLAG,
16# AX_CPP_CHECK_FLAG, AX_CXXCPP_CHECK_FLAG and AX_LD_CHECK_FLAG.
17#
18# A typical usage should be the following one:
19#
20# AX_GCC_OPTION([-fomit-frame-pointer],[],[],[
21# AC_MSG_NOTICE([The option is supported])],[
22# AC_MSG_NOTICE([No luck this time])
23# ])
24#
25# The macro doesn't discriminate between languages so, if you are testing
26# for an option that works for C++ but not for C you should use '-x c++'
27# as EXTRA-OPTIONS:
28#
29# AX_GCC_OPTION([-fno-rtti],[-x c++],[],[ ... ],[ ... ])
30#
31# OPTION is tested against the following code:
32#
33# int main()
34# {
35# return 0;
36# }
37#
38# The optional TEST-PROGRAM comes handy when the default main() is not
39# suited for the option being checked
40#
41# So, if you need to test for -fstrict-prototypes option you should
42# probably use the macro as follows:
43#
44# AX_GCC_OPTION([-fstrict-prototypes],[-x c++],[
45# int main(int argc, char ** argv)
46# {
47# (void) argc;
48# (void) argv;
49#
50# return 0;
51# }
52# ],[ ... ],[ ... ])
53#
54# Note that the macro compiles but doesn't link the test program so it is
55# not suited for checking options that are passed to the linker, like:
56#
57# -Wl,-L<a-library-path>
58#
59# In order to avoid such kind of problems you should think about usinguse
60# the AX_*_CHECK_FLAG family macros
