NAME

       regina-engine-config - get information about the installed version of Regina

SYNOPSIS

       regina-engine-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--libs] [--cflags]

DESCRIPTION

       regina-engine-config tells you which compiler and linker flags should be used to build the mathematical engine of Regina into your own pro-
       grams.  Regina's mathematical engine is in the library libregina-engine.so.

       Regina is a software package for studying 3-manifold triangulations and normal surfaces. Other key features include angle structures,  cen-
       sus  enumeration, combinatorial recognition of triangulations, and high-level tasks such as 3-sphere recognition and connected sum decompo-
       sition.

OPTIONS

       regina-engine-config accepts the following options.

       --prefix=DIR
	      Use DIR instead of the installation prefix that Regina 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 is not specified.	This option must be specified before any --libs or
	      --cflags options.  If no DIR is specified then the current installation prefix will be written to standard output.

	      Most people will not need this option.

       --exec-prefix=DIR
	      Use DIR instead of the installation exec prefix that Regina was built with when computing the output for	the  --cflags  and  --libs
	      options.	This option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options.  If no DIR is specified then the current installation
	      exec prefix will be written to standard output.

	      Most people will not need this option.

       --version
	      Print the currently installed version of Regina.

       --libs Print the linker flags that are required to link a program against the Regina calculation engine.

       --cflags
	      Print the compiler flags that are required to compile a program that uses the Regina calculation engine.
