NAME
orbit2-config - helper script for building with orbit2
SYNOPSIS
orbit2-config [--help ] [--version] [--prefix=dir] [--cflags] [--libs] [--exec-prefix=dir] [--use-service=service] [client | server]
DESCRIPTION
The orbit2-config tool is used to determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link programs that use the
orbit2 library. It is also used internally by the .m4 macros for GNU autoconf that are included with orbit. In most cases, you will use
one (or both) of the options --cflags or --libs, depending on whether you are compiling or linking.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
--cflags Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program using the specified library.
--libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link with the specified library.
--exec-prefix=diIf specified, use dir instead of the installation exec prefix that the library was built with, when computing the output
for the --cflags and --libs options. This option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options.
--help Print a usage summary.
--prefix=dir If specified, use dir instead of the installation prefix that the library was built with, when computing the output for the
--cflags and --libs options. This option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options. This option is also used
for the exec prefix, if the --exec-prefix option is not specified.
--use-service=seIfispecified, provide additional flags (if any) for using the specified service. Known values for service are: module Cos-
Naming, interfaces LNameComponent, LName.
--version Print the currently installed version of the library on the standard output.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
client Used when compiling an orbit2 client.
server Used when compiling an orbit2 server.
