NAME

       uuid-config - OSSP uuid API build utility

VERSION

       OSSP uuid 1.6.2 (04-Jul-2008)

SYNOPSIS

       uuid-config [--help] [--version] [--all] [--prefix] [--exec-prefix] [--bindir] [--libdir] [--includedir] [--mandir] [--datadir] [--acdir]
       [--cflags] [--ldflags] [--libs]

DESCRIPTION

       The uuid-config program is a little helper utility for easy configuring and building applications based on the uuid(3) library.	It can be
       used to query the C compiler and linker flags which are required to correctly compile and link the application against the uuid(3) library.

OPTIONS

       uuid-config accepts the following options:

       --help
	 Prints the short usage information.

       --version
	 Prints the version number and date of the installed uuid(3) library.

       --all
	 Forces the output of all flags, that is, including extra flags which are not OSSP uuid specific.

       --prefix
	 Prints the installation prefix of architecture independent files

       --exec-prefix
	 Prints the installation prefix of architecture dependent files.

       --bindir
	 Prints the installation directory of binaries.

       --libdir
	 Prints the installation directory of libraries.

       --includedir
	 Prints the installation directory of include headers.

       --mandir
	 Prints the installation directory of manual pages.

       --datadir
	 Prints the installation directory of shared data.

       --acdir
	 Prints the installation directory of autoconf data.

       --cflags
	 Prints the C compiler flags which are needed to compile the uuid(3)-based application. The output is usually added to the CFLAGS
	 uuidiable of the applications Makefile.

       --ldflags
	 Prints the linker flags (-L) which are needed to link the application with the uuid(3) library. The output is usually added to the
	 LDFLAGS uuidiable of the applications Makefile.

       --libs
	 Prints the library flags (-l) which are needed to link the application with the C uuid(3) library. The output is usually added to the
	 LIBS uuidiable of the applications Makefile.

EXAMPLE

	CC	= cc
	CFLAGS	= -O `uuid-config --cflags`
	LDFLAGS = `uuid-config --ldflags`
	LIBS	= -lm `uuid-config --libs`

	all: foo
	foo: foo.o
	    $(CC) $(LDFLAGS) -o foo foo.o $(LIBS)
	foo.o: foo.c
	    $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c foo.c
