PostgreSQL源码中的configure详解

摘要:以最新的pg10.2为例. configure'脚本有大量的命令行选项.对不同的软件包来说,这些选项可能会有变化,但是许多基本的选项是不会改变的.带上'-- help'选项执行'configure'脚本可以看到可用的所有选项.尽管许多选项是很少用到的,但是当你为了特殊的需求而configure一个包时,知道他们的存在是很有益处的.

pg10#./configure --help
`configure' configures PostgreSQL 10.2 to adapt to many kinds of systems.

Usage: ./configure [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]...

To assign environment variables (e.g., CC, CFLAGS...), specify them as
VAR=VALUE.  See below for descriptions of some of the useful variables.

Defaults for the options are specified in brackets.

Configuration:
  -h, --help              display this help and exit                             #帮助
      --help=short        display options specific to this package
      --help=recursive    display the short help of all the included packages
  -V, --version           display version information and exit                  #版本
  -q, --quiet, --silent   do not print `checking ...' messages
      --cache-file=FILE   cache test results in FILE [disabled]
  -C, --config-cache      alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'
  -n, --no-create         do not create output files
      --srcdir=DIR        find the sources in DIR [configure dir or `..']

Installation directories:
  --prefix=PREFIX         install architecture-independent files in PREFIX     #安装目录
                          [/usr/local/pgsql]
  --exec-prefix=EPREFIX   install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX      #依赖软件安装目录.
                          [PREFIX]

By default, `make install' will install all the files in                       #默认将完全安装
