NAME
caca-config - script to get information about the installed version of
libcaca
SYNOPSIS
caca-config [ --prefix= DIR] [ --exec-prefix= DIR] [ --version ] [
--libs ] [ --cflags ]
DESCRIPTION
caca-config is a tool that is used to configure and determine the
compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link
progams, libraries, and plugins that use libcaca.
The use of caca-config is deprecated. The more generic tool pkg-config
should be used instead.
OPTIONS
--cflags
Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program
or library that uses libcaca.
--exec-prefix=DIR
If specified, use DIR instead of the installation exec prefix
that libcaca was build with when computing the output for the
--cflags and --libs options. This option must be specified
before any of the --cflags and --libs options.
--libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a program or
library that uses libcaca.
--prefix=DIR
If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that
libcaca 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 was not specified. This option
must be specified before any of the --cflags and --libs options.
--version
Prints the currently installed version of libcaca on standard
output.
EXAMPLES
gcc -o main.o $(caca-config --cflags) -c main.c
is how you might use caca-config to compile a C source file for
an executable program.
gcc -o my_app $(caca-config --libs) main.o util.o
is how you might use caca-config to link compiled objects into
an executable program.
