wv2-config
WV2-CONFIG(1) General Commands Manual WV2-CONFIG(1) NAME
wv2-config - script to get information about the installed version of wv2 SYNOPSIS
wv2-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--libs] [--cflags] DESCRIPTION
wv2-config is used to determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link programs that use wv2. OPTIONS
wv2-config accepts the following options. --prefix=DIR If specified, use DIR instead of the installation prefix that wv2 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 out- put. --exec-prefix=DIR If specified, use DIR instead of the installation exec prefix that wv2 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. --version Print the currently installed version of wv2 on standard output. --libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a program against wv2. --cflags Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program that uses wv2. SEE ALSO
Some documentation regarding the design of the wv2 library is available in /usr/share/doc/libwv2-dev/design/ . AUTHOR
The wv2 library was written by Shaheed Haque <srhaque@iee.org>, Werner Trobin <trobin@kde.org> and David Faure <faure@kde.org>. This manual page was prepared by Ben Burton <bab@debian.org> for the Debian GNU/Linux system, but may be used by others. June 2003 WV2-CONFIG(1)
