compile convert only

Is it possible to compile convert only?
Because it seems to take hours to compile and if i can compile convert only it would go faster.

You certainly could modify the Makefile to only compile convert, however, convert relies on the MagickCore and MagickWand libraries which consumes the great majority of the compile/build time.

Ok than I won't make it compile Convert only.
Is it possible to compile it so I can use Convert on any computer with out having it installed (Running Make Install) or like compile it with the libs included in to the binary.
I'm trying to make a application that have to do with pnm, pgm and ppm images and I want to convert it to png and to be able to convert it back. This is the only program I found that can do it.

Oh yea this is how I configured it

Code: Select all

./configure --enable-shared --enable-static --disable-ltdl-install --without-dps --with-ttf --with-bzlib --with-jpeg --with-png --with-tiff --with-zlib --with-modules --with-xml --without-x --without-perl --without-fpx --without-gslib --without-jbig --without-jp2 --without-lcms --without-wmf --without-gvc --disable-dependency-tracking --enable-osx-universal-binary

Hi
Is there any way to compile and build only convert function by putting any flag in ./configure ? Or at least by modifying configure file? For my application I only need convert function.

Thanks
