log4shib-config

LOG4SHIB-CONFIG(1)						     log4shib							LOG4SHIB-CONFIG(1)

NAME

       log4shib-config - Flags for linking with the log4shib library

SYNOPSIS

       log4shib-config [--prefix[=dir]] [--exec-prefix[=dir]]
	   [--package] [--version] [--cflags] [--libs] [--help]

DESCRIPTION

       log4shib-config prints out various configuration information for the log4shib library, such as the compiler and linker flags required to
       build and link programs against the library.

       log4shib provides a library of C++ classes for flexible logging to files, syslog, and other destinations.  It is modeled after the log4j
       Java library, staying as close to that API as is reasonable.

       log4shib is a fork of the log4cpp library with additional fixes and modifications to improve its thread safety and robustness.  It is
       primarily intended for use by the Shibboleth web authentication system.

OPTIONS

       --help
	   Prints a usage message.  This is the default action.

       --cflags
	   Prints the compiler flags required to build software using log4shib.

       --libs
	   Prints the linker flags required to link software with log4shib.

       --package
	   Prints the name of the log4shib package.

       --version
	   Prints the version of log4shib from which this script came.

       --prefix[=dir]
	   Prints the prefix with which log4shib was compiled.	If the optional argument is supplied, also sets the prefix to dir for any
	   subsequent flags.  (This is rarely useful.)

       --exec-prefix[=dir]
	   Prints the prefix for compiled files with which log4shib was compiled.  If the optional argument is supplied, also sets the exec prefix
	   to dir for any subsequent flags.  (This is rarely useful.)

       Other, lesser-used options are also available to print out additional configure-time information.  Run with --help for a full list of
       available options.
