NAME

       mkoctfile - Compile dynamic-load modules for GNU Octave

SYNOPSIS

       mkoctfile [OPTION]... file...

DESCRIPTION

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

OPTIONS

       -h, -?, --help
               Print help message.

       -Idir   Add include directory dir to compile commands.

       -idirafterdir
               Add include directory to second include search path after '-I'.

       -Ddef   Add definition def to compiler command.

       -llib   Add library lib to link command.

       -Ldir   Add library directory dir to link command.

       -Rdir   Pass -Rdir to link command.

       -g      Enable debugging option for all compilers.

       -pthread
               Add -pthread to link command.

       -W...   Pass flags to the compiler such as -Wa,OPTION.

       -Wl,... Pass flags to the linker such as -Wl,-rpath=...

       -M, --depend
               Generate dependency files (.d) for C and C++ source files.

       -c      Compile but do not link.

       --link-stand-alone
               Link a stand-alone executable file.

       -s, --strip
               Strip the output file.

       --mex   Create a MEX file.  Set the default output extension to .mex.

       -o file, --output file
               Output file name.  Default extension is .oct  (or  .mex  if  --mex  is  specified)
               unless linking a stand-alone executable.
