SYNOPSIS

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

-IDIR

Add include directory DIR to compile commands.

-DDEF

Add definition DEF to compiler call.

-lLIB

Add library LIB to link command.

-LDIR

Add library directory DIR to link command.

-M|--depend

Generate dependency files (.d) for C and C++ source files.

-c

Compile but do not link.

-o FILE|--output FILE

Output file name; default extension is .oct (or .mex if --mex is specified) unless linking a stand-alone executable.

-p VAR|--print VAR

Print configuration variable VAR. Recognized variables are:

ALL_CFLAGS FFTW_LIBS ALL_CXXFLAGS FLIBS ALL_FFLAGS FPICFLAG ALL_LDFLAGS INCFLAGS BLAS_LIBS LDFLAGS CC LD_CXX CFLAGS LD_STATIC_FLAG CPICFLAG LFLAGS CPPFLAGS LIBCRUFT CXX LIBOCTAVE CXXFLAGS LIBOCTINTERP CXXPICFLAG LIBREADLINE DEPEND_EXTRA_SED_PATTERN LIBS DEPEND_FLAGS OCTAVE_LIBS DL_LD RDYNAMIC_FLAG DL_LDFLAGS RLD_FLAG F2C SED F2CFLAGS XTRA_CFLAGS F77 XTRA_CXXFLAGS FFLAGS

--link-stand-alone

Link a stand-alone executable file. --mex Assume we are creating a MEX file. Set the default output extension to .mex.

-s|--strip

Strip the output file.

-v|--verbose

Echo commands as they are executed.

file

Compile or link file. Recognised file types are

.c C source .cc C++ source .C C++ source .cpp C++ source .f Fortran source .F Fortran source .o object file .SH SEE ALSO .BR octave (1).
