     26# SYNOPSIS
     27#
     28#   ACX_PTHREAD([ACTION-IF-FOUND[, ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND]])
     29#
     30# DESCRIPTION
     31#
     32#   This macro figures out how to build C programs using POSIX threads. It
     33#   sets the PTHREAD_LIBS output variable to the threads library and linker
     34#   flags, and the PTHREAD_CFLAGS output variable to any special C compiler
     35#   flags that are needed. (The user can also force certain compiler
     36#   flags/libs to be tested by setting these environment variables.)
     37#
     38#   Also sets PTHREAD_CC to any special C compiler that is needed for
     39#   multi-threaded programs (defaults to the value of CC otherwise). (This
     40#   is necessary on AIX to use the special cc_r compiler alias.)
     41#
     42#   NOTE: You are assumed to not only compile your program with these flags,
     43#   but also link it with them as well. e.g. you should link with
     44#   $PTHREAD_CC $CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS $LDFLAGS ... $PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS
     45#
     46#   If you are only building threads programs, you may wish to use these
     47#   variables in your default LIBS, CFLAGS, and CC:
     48#
     49#          LIBS="$PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS"
     50#          CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS"
     51#          CC="$PTHREAD_CC"
     52#
     53#   In addition, if the PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE thread-attribute constant
     54#   has a nonstandard name, defines PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE to that name
     55#   (e.g. PTHREAD_CREATE_UNDETACHED on AIX).
     56#
     57#   ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if a threads library
     58#   is found, and ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of commands to run it if it
     59#   is not found. If ACTION-IF-FOUND is not specified, the default action
     60#   will define HAVE_PTHREAD.
     61#
     62#   Please let the authors know if this macro fails on any platform, or if
     63#   you have any other suggestions or comments. This macro was based on work
     64#   by SGJ on autoconf scripts for FFTW (http://www.fftw.org/) (with help
     65#   from M. Frigo), as well as ac_pthread and hb_pthread macros posted by
     66#   Alejandro Forero Cuervo to the autoconf macro repository. We are also
     67#   grateful for the helpful feedback of numerous users.
