DESCRIPTION

14       mkoctfile  is  used  to compile source C, C++ or Fortran source code in
15       dynamically loadable .oct file for octave(1).
16

OPTIONS

18       mkoctfile accepts the following options:
19
20       -IDIR   Add include directory DIR to compile commands.
21
22       -DDEF   Add definition DEF to compiler call.
23
24       -lLIB   Add library LIB to link command.
25
26       -LDIR   Add library directory DIR to link command.
27
28       -M|--depend
29               Generate dependency files (.d) for C and C++ source files.
30
31       -c      Compile but do not link.
32
33       -o FILE|--output FILE
34               Output file name; default extension is .oct (or .mex  if  --mex
35               is specified) unless linking a stand-alone executable.
36
37       -p VAR|--print VAR
