34.3 Configuring with V8 m4 Options

In creating a configuration file with the V8 m4 method (see Chapter 19, V8 m4 Configuration ), every option can be tuned by including appropriate define statements in your .mc file:

define(`

option

',`

value

')            
<- enclose in opposing half-quotes
 define(`confAUTO_REBUILD',`True')   
<- for example

The option is selected from one of the m4 option names shown in the leftmost column of Table 34.3 . The value is an appropriate value for that option, as described in the reference section of this chapter. Note that the option and the value should each be enclosed in opposing half-quotes to prevent m4 from wrongly recognizing either as a keyword or macro. The leftmost half-quote is the reverse apostrophe, and the rightmost is the normal apostrophe.
