automake-1.16: Objective C Support
8.10 Objective C Support
========================
Automake includes some support for Objective C.
Any package including Objective C code must define the output
variable ‘OBJC’ in ‘configure.ac’; the simplest way to do this is to use
the ‘AC_PROG_OBJC’ macro (⇒Particular Program Checks
(autoconf)Particular Programs.).
A few additional variables are defined when an Objective C source
file is seen:
‘OBJC’
The name of the Objective C compiler.
‘OBJCFLAGS’
Any flags to pass to the Objective C compiler.
‘AM_OBJCFLAGS’
The maintainer’s variant of ‘OBJCFLAGS’.
‘OBJCCOMPILE’
The command used to compile an Objective C source file. The file
name is appended to form the complete command line.
‘OBJCLINK’
The command used to link an Objective C program.
