CC

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The GCC C compiler.


CFLAGS

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Variables ]

DESCRIPTION

Flags passed to CC when compiling C code. Individual packages may append or override this value if they will not build correctly without it.

DEFAULT VALUE

  -ggdb -O2 -pipe -Wall -Werror=format-security -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 -fstack-protector-strong --param=ssp-buffer-size=4

CPPFLAGS

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Variables ]

DESCRIPTION

Flags passed to the preprocessor. Individual packages may append or override this value if they will not build correctly without it.


CXX

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The GCC C++ compiler.


CXXFLAGS

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Variables ]

DESCRIPTION

Flags passed to CXX when compiling C++ code. Individual packages may append or override this value if they will not build correctly without it.

DEFAULT VALUE

  CFLAGS -Werror=return-type

F77

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The GCC Fortran 77 compiler.

SEE ALSO

FC


FFLAGS

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Variables ]

DESCRIPTION

Flags passed to F77 when compiling Fortran 77 code. Individual packages may append or override this value if they will not build correctly without it.

DEFAULT VALUE

  CFLAGS

FC

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The GCC Fortran 95 compiler.

SEE ALSO

F77


FCFLAGS

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Variables ]

DESCRIPTION

Flags passed to FC when compiling Fortran 95 code. Individual packages may append or override this value if they will not build correctly without it.

DEFAULT VALUE

  CFLAGS

GOC

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The GCC Go native-code compiler.


GOFLAGS

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Variables ]

DESCRIPTION

Flags passed to GOC when native-compiling Go code. Individual packages may append or override this value if they will not build correctly without it.

DEFAULT VALUE

  -ggdb -O2 -pipe

OBJC

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The GCC Objective C compiler.


OBJCFLAGS

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Variables ]

DESCRIPTION

Flags passed to OBJC when compiling Objective C code. Individual packages may append or override this value if they will not build correctly without it.

DEFAULT VALUE

  CFLAGS

OBJCXX

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The GCC Objective C++ compiler.


OBJCXXFLAGS

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Variables ]

DESCRIPTION

Flags passed to OBJCXX when compiling Objective C++ code. Individual packages may append or override this value if they will not build correctly without it.

DEFAULT VALUE

  CXXFLAGS

LDFLAGS

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Variables ]

DESCRIPTION

Flags passed to the linker. Individual packages may append or override this value if they will not build correctly without it.


AR

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The static library archiver for the host platform.


DLLTOOL

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The DLL import creation tool for the host platform.

NOTE

This tool is available only on Cygwin, Windows, and embedded PE hosts.


NM

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The symbol listing utility for the host platform.


RANLIB

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The static library indexer for the host platform.


RC

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The Windows resource compiler for the host platform.

NOTE

This tool is available only on Cygwin, Windows, and embedded PE hosts.


STRIP

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The symbol remover for the host platform.


PKG_CONFIG

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The pkg-config utility for the host platform.


CC_SYSROOT

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The sysroot used by CC, i.e. the output of $CC -print-sysroot. This is useful when specifying the location of a package's dependency so that it will be correct both when building natively or cross-compiling (e.g. CYGCONF_ARGS="--with-foo-include=${CC_SYSROOT}/usr/include/foo-1"). This is NOT for specifying installation directories for a package being cross-compiled; see CROSS_SYSROOT instead.


ARCH

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

The Cygwin architecture the binaries are being built for (i686 or x86_64), or "noarch".

NOTE

This variable should only be defined in a .cygport in one of the following cases:

This variable is automatically set to "noarch" by certain cygclasses e.g. cross.cygclass.


ARCH_i686

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

Defined only when building binaries for i686 (32-bit) Cygwin.


ARCH_x86_64

[ Top ] [ Compiling ] [ Definitions ]

DESCRIPTION

Defined only when building binaries for x86_64 (64-bit) Cygwin.
