STR-CONFIG(1)

NAME
str-config - Str library build utility

VERSION
Str .9.6 (13-Sep-2001)

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

DESCRIPTION
The str-config program is a little helper utility for easy configuring and building applications based on the str(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 str(3) library.

OPTIONS
str-config accepts the following options: Prints the short usage information. Prints the version number and date of the installed str(3) library. Forces the output of all flags, that is, including extra flags which are not Str specific. Prints the installation prefix of architecture independent files Prints the installation prefix of architecture dependent files. Prints the installation directory of binaries. Prints the installation directory of libraries. Prints the installation directory of include headers. Prints the installation directory of manual pages. Prints the installation directory of shared data. Prints the installation directory of autoconf data. Prints the C compiler flags which are needed to compile the str(3)-based application. The output is usually added to the "CFLAGS" variable of the applications "Makefile". Prints the linker flags ("-L") which are needed to link the application with the str(3) library. The output is usually added to the "LDFLAGS" variable of the applications "Makefile". Prints the library flags ("-l") which are needed to link the application with the str(3) library. The output is usually added to the "LIBS" variable of the applications "Makefile".

EXAMPLE
 CC      = cc
 CFLAGS  = -O `str-config --cflags`
 LDFLAGS = `str-config --ldflags`
 LIBS    = -lm `str-config --libs`
 all: foo
 foo: foo.o
     $(CC) $(LDFLAGS) -o foo foo.o $(LIBS)
 foo.o: foo.c
     $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c foo.c
