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 plus -Werror works with the current
12#   language's compiler — C or C++ — or gives an error.
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.
