NAME
gtest-config - Google’s framework for writing C++ test
SYNOPSIS
gtest-config [OPTIONS...]
DESCRIPTION
The ‘gtest-config’ script provides access to the necessary compile and
linking flags to connect with Google C++ Testing Framework, both in a
build prior to installation, and on the system proper after
installation. The installation overrides may be issued in combination
with any other queries, but will only affect installation queries if
called on a built but not installed gtest. The installation queries may
not be issued with any other types of queries, and only one
installation query may be made at a time. The version queries and
compiler flag queries may be combined as desired but not mixed.
Different version queries are always combined with logical "and"
semantics, and only the last of any particular query is used while all
previous ones ignored. All versions must be specified as a sequence of
numbers separated by periods. Compiler flag queries output the union
of the sets of flags when combined.
Examples:
gtest-config --min-version=1.0 || echo "Insufficient Google Test
version."
g++ $(gtest-config --cppflags --cxxflags) -o foo.o -c foo.cpp
g++ $(gtest-config --ldflags --libs) -o foo foo.o
# When using a built but not installed Google Test: g++
$(../../my_gtest_build/scripts/gtest-config ...) ...
# When using an installed Google Test, but with installation
overrides: export GTEST_PREFIX="/opt" g++ $(gtest-config
--libdir="/opt/lib64" ...) ...
