The
var-config program is a little helper utility for easy configuring
and building applications based on the
OSSP var library. It can be used
to query the C compiler and linker flags which are required to correctly
compile and link the application against the
OSSP var library.
var-config accepts the following options:
- --help
- Prints the short usage information.
- --version
- Prints the version number and date of the installed OSSP var
library.
- --all
- Forces the output of all flags, that is, including extra flags which are
not OSSP var specific.
- --prefix
- Prints the installation prefix of architecture independent files
- --exec-prefix
- Prints the installation prefix of architecture dependent files.
- --bindir
- Prints the installation directory of binaries.
- --libdir
- Prints the installation directory of libraries.
- --includedir
- Prints the installation directory of include headers.
- --mandir
- Prints the installation directory of manual pages.
- --datadir
- Prints the installation directory of shared data.
- --cflags
- Prints the C compiler flags which are needed to compile the OSSP
var based application. The output is usually added to the
"CFLAGS" variable of the applications "Makefile".
- --ldflags
- Prints the linker flags ("-L") which are needed to link the
application with the OSSP var library. The output is usually added
to the "LDFLAGS" variable of the applications
"Makefile".
- --libs
- Prints the library flags ("-l") which are needed to link the
application with the C OSSP var library. The output is usually
added to the "LIBS" variable of the applications
"Makefile".
