NAME

mercury_config − generate new configurations for a Mercury installation

SYNOPSIS

mercury_config [<options>] [−− <configure options>]

NOTES

mercury_config is one of the development tools that are part of the Mercury distribution.

This manual page is limited to a brief summary. For further information see the Mercury User’s Guide.

OPTIONS

−−rebase

Use this option after moving a Mercury installation to regenerate the scripts and configuration files so that the Mercury installation will work from the new location.

−−output−prefix <dir>

Generate the new copies of the Mercury scripts and configuration files into the given directory. By default mercury_config overwrites the configuration in the installation hierarchy containing the mercury_config script.

DESCRIPTION

Generates an alternative configuration for a Mercury installation, for example to use a different C compiler.

The <configure options> must result in a configuration which is compatible with the configuration used to build the installed libraries, or else linking using the new configuration will fail. For example, both configurations must agree on the use of boxed or unboxed floats.

To use the new configuration, put ‘<dir>/bin’ at the beginning of your PATH.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

MERCURY_DEFAULT_GRADE.
