LIBIDL-CONFIG-2(1)					      General Commands Manual						LIBIDL-CONFIG-2(1)

NAME
libIDL-config-2 - helper script for building with libIDL-2 SYNOPSIS
libIDL-config-2 [ --libs ] [ --cflags ] [ --prefix=dir ] [ --exec-prefix=dir ] libIDL-config-2 [ --version ] [ --help ] DESCRIPTION
libIDL-config-2 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-2 library. This script seems to be semi-obsolete, and may not work correctly on non-Debian systems; you should probably use "pkg-config libIDL-2.0" instead. 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-2 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 specified 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. SEE ALSO

NAME
freealut-config - script to get information about the installed version of freealut SYNOPSIS
freealut-config [ --prefix= DIR] [ --exec-prefix= DIR] [ --version ] [ --libs ] [ --cflags ] DESCRIPTION
freealut-config is a tool that is used to configure and determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link progams, libraries, and plugins that use freealut. The use of freealut-config is deprecated. The more generic tool pkg-config should be used instead. OPTIONS
--cflags Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program or library that uses freealut. --exec-prefix=DIR If specified, use DIR instead of the installation exec prefix that freealut was build with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options. This option must be specified before any of the --cflags and --libs options. --libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a program or library that uses freealut. --prefix=DIR If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that freealut 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 of the --cflags and --libs options. --version Prints the currently installed version of freealut on standard output. EXAMPLES
gcc -o main.o $(freealut-config --cflags) -c main.c is how you might use freealut-config to compile a C source file for an executable program. gcc -o my_app $(freealut-config --libs) main.o util.o is how you might use freealut-config to link compiled objects into an executable program. SEE ALSO
