You can compile and link using compiler options. The library is referenced using -l<its_name_here> and the path to the library using -L/path/to/lib.
-I is for the path to include directories.
However, if the library isn't in a directory in the linkers path when you run the executable you'll get an error. One way to solve this is to use rpath option.
someting like:
Note: I'm guessing what you need and what each item is. -I should be used with the path to header -l prepended to the library name and -L preceding the path to the library.
I have created symbolic links to several frequently used commands, for example:

apr-1-config - Return metainformation about apr library
SYNOPSIS
apr-1-config [OPTION]
DESCRIPTION
The apr-1-config program is used to retrieve information about the apr library in the system. It is typically used to compile and link
against the library.
When linking with libtool, an application should do something like:
APR_LIBS="`apr-1-config --link-libtool --libs`"
or when linking directly:
APR_LIBS="`apr-1-config --link-ld --libs`"
An application should use the results of --cflags, --cppflags, --includes, and --ldflags in their build process.
