You must set the environment variable CXX
. You can do this by, running setenv ("CXX", "your favourite compiler")
before pkg install
(leave it in your octave.rc
so it's ran every time), or by running export CXX=your_favourite_compiler
before starting octave.
set default gcc for mkoctfile
Question
I have a default compiler on MacOS set to clang. When installing packages for octave (using pkg install
from the octave prompt), I would like mkoctfile to use the macports gcc48. (In fact, octave itself was built using gcc48).
In other words:
mkoctfile -p CC
gives me the path to the default clang, and I would like it to point to gcc48. Is there a configuration file for mkoctfile which would allow such a thing?
