NAME
lib3ds-config - script to get information about the installed version of lib3ds SYNOPSIS
lib3ds-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--libs] [--cflags] DESCRIPTION
lib3ds-config is a tool that is used to configure to determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link pro- grams that use lib3ds. It is also used internally to the .m4 macros for GNU autoconf that are included with lib3ds. OPTIONS
lib3ds-config accepts the following options: --version Print the currently installed version of lib3ds on the standard output. --libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a lib3ds program. --cflags Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a lib3ds program. --prefix=PREFIX If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that lib3ds 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 lib3ds was built with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options. This option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options. COPYRIGHT
