 5  # SYNOPSIS
 6  #
 7  #   AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG(FLAG, [ACTION-SUCCESS], [ACTION-FAILURE], [EXTRA-FLAGS], [INPUT])
 8  #
 9  # DESCRIPTION
10  #
11  #   Check whether the given FLAG works with the current language's compiler
12  #   or gives an error.  (Warnings, however, are ignored)
13  #
14  #   ACTION-SUCCESS/ACTION-FAILURE are shell commands to execute on
15  #   success/failure.
16  #
17  #   If EXTRA-FLAGS is defined, it is added to the current language's default
18  #   flags (e.g. CFLAGS) when the check is done.  The check is thus made with
19  #   the flags: "CFLAGS EXTRA-FLAGS FLAG".  This can for example be used to
20  #   force the compiler to issue an error when a bad flag is given.
21  #
22  #   INPUT gives an alternative input source to AC_COMPILE_IFELSE.
23  #
24  #   NOTE: Implementation based on AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION. Please keep this
25  #   macro in sync with AX_CHECK_{PREPROC,LINK}_FLAG.
