NAME
libIDL-config - helper script for building with libIDL
SYNOPSIS
libIDL-config [ --libs ] [ --cflags ] [ --prefix=dir ] [ --exec-pre fix=dir ] libIDL-config [ --version ] [ --help ]
DESCRIPTION
libIDL-config is a tool that is used to determine the compiler and
linker flags that should be used to compile and link programs that use
the libIDL library. It is also used internally by the .m4 macros for
GNU autoconf that are included with libIDL.
In most cases, you will use one (or both) of the options --cflags or --libs (depending on whether you are compiling or linking.
OPTIONS
libIDL-config accepts the following options:
- --version
- Print the currently installed version of library on the standard output.
- --help Print a usage summary.
- --libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link with the spec
- ified library.
- --cflags
- Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program using the specified library.
- --prefix=PREFIX
- If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that library was built with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options. This option is also used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified. This option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options.
- --exec-prefix=PREFIX
- If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation exec prefix that library was built with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options. This option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options.
