6 mkoctfile - Compile dynamic-load modules for GNU Octave
7
9 mkoctfile [OPTION]... file...
10
12 mkoctfile is used to compile C, C++, or Fortran source code in to a
13 dynamically loadable .oct file for octave(1).
14
16 -h, -?, --help
17 Print help message.
18 -Idir Add include directory dir to compile commands.
20 -idirafterdir
22 Add include directory to second include search path after '-I'.
23 -Ddef Add definition def to compiler command.
25 -llib Add library lib to link command.
27 -Ldir Add library directory dir to link command.
29 -Rdir Pass -Rdir to link command.
31 -g Enable debugging option for all compilers.
33 -pthread
35 Add -pthread to link command.
36 -W... Pass flags to the compiler such as -Wa,OPTION.
38 -Wl,... Pass flags to the linker such as -Wl,-rpath=...
40 -M, --depend
42 Generate dependency files (.d) for C and C++ source files.
43 -c Compile but do not link.
45 --link-stand-alone
47 Link a stand-alone executable file.
48 -s, --strip
50 Strip the output file.
51 --mex Create a MEX file. Set the default output extension to .mex.
53 -o file, --output file
55 Output filename. Default extension is .oct (or .mex if --mex
56 is specified) unless linking a stand-alone executable.
57 -p VAR, --print VAR
59 Print configuration variable VAR. There are three categories
60 of variables:
61 Octave configuration variables that users may override with
63 environment variables. These are used in commands that mkoct‐
64 file executes.

100 Octave configuration variables that are provided for informa‐
102 tional purposes only. Except for OCTAVE_HOME and
103 OCTAVE_EXEC_HOME, users may not override these variables.
104 If OCTAVE_HOME or OCTAVE_EXEC_HOME are set in the environment,
106 then other variables are adjusted accordingly with OCTAVE_HOME
107 or OCTAVE_EXEC_HOME substituted for the original value of the
108 directory specified by the --prefix or --exec-prefix options
109 that were used when Octave was configured.
