+ + cxx : Builds support for C++ (bindings, extra libraries, code |
28 |
generation, ...) |
29 |
- - doc : Adds extra documentation (API, Javadoc, etc). It is |
30 |
recommended to enable per package instead of globally |
31 |
- - fortran : Adds support for fortran (formerly f77) |
32 |
- - gcj : Enable building with gcj (The GNU Compiler for the |
33 |
Javatm |
34 |
Programming Language) |
35 |

36 |
based on |
37 |
a polyhedral intermediate representation |
38 |
- - gtk : Adds support for x11-libs/gtk+ (The GIMP Toolkit) |
39 |
+ + lto : Add support for link-time optimizations (unsupported, |
40 |
use at |
41 |
your own risk). |
42 |
- - mudflap : Add support for mudflap, a pointer use checking library |
43 |
- - multislot : Allow for SLOTs to include minor version (3.3.4 instead |
44 |
of |
45 |
just 3.3) |
46 |

47 |
locale |

63 |
FEATURES=test. Portage-2.1.2 handles this internally, |
64 |
so don't |
65 |
set it in make.conf/package.use anymore |
66 |
- - vanilla : Do not add extra patches which change default |
67 |
behaviour; DO |
68 |
NOT USE THIS ON A GLOBAL SCALE as the severity of the |
69 |
meaning |
70 |
changes drastically |
