Add include directory dir to compile commands.

-idirafterdir

Add include directory to second include search path after '-I'.

-Ddef

Add definition def to compiler command.

-llib

Add library lib to link command.

-Ldir

Add library directory dir to link command.

-Rdir

Pass -Rdir to link command.

-g

Enable debugging option for all compilers.

-pthread

Add -pthread to link command.

-W...

Pass flags to the compiler such as -Wa,OPTION.

-Wl,...

Pass flags to the linker such as -Wl,-rpath=...

-M, --depend

Generate dependency files (.d) for C and C++ source files.

-c

Compile but do not link.

--link-stand-alone

-s, --strip

Strip the output file.

--mex

Create a MEX file. Set the default output extension to .mex.

-o file, --output file

Output file name. Default extension is .oct (or .mex if --mex is specified) unless linking a stand-alone executable.
