31dnl Macros to check for the existence of compiler flags.  The macros in this
32dnl file support both C and C++.
33dnl
34dnl Be aware that, in order to detect a flag accurately, we may need to enable
35dnl strict warning checking in the compiler (i.e. enable -Werror).  Some
36dnl compilers, e.g. Clang, report unknown -W flags as warnings unless -Werror is
37dnl selected.  This fact would confuse the flag checks below because we would
38dnl conclude that a flag is valid while in reality it is not.  To resolve this,
39dnl the macros below will pass -Werror to the compiler along with any other flag
40dnl being checked.

43dnl Checks for a compiler flag and sets a result variable.

45dnl This is an auxiliary macro for the implementation of _KYUA_FLAG.
46dnl
47dnl \param 1 The shell variable containing the compiler name.  Used for
48dnl     reporting purposes only.  C or CXX.
49dnl \param 2 The shell variable containing the flags for the compiler.
50dnl     CFLAGS or CXXFLAGS.
51dnl \param 3 The name of the compiler flag to check for.
52dnl \param 4 The shell variable to set with the result of the test.  Will
53dnl     be set to 'yes' if the flag is valid, 'no' otherwise.
54dnl \param 5 Additional, optional flags to pass to the C compiler while
55dnl     looking for the flag in $3.  We use this here to pass -Werror to the
56dnl     flag checks (unless we are checking for -Werror already).
