NAME

uuid-config — OSSP uuid API build utility

SYNOPSIS

uuid-config [ --help ] [ --version ] [ --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 of 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.

OSSP uuid also ships pkg-config (1) definition (as ossp-uuid.pc ). Use that instead.

OPTIONS
--help

Prints the short usage information.

--version

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

--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 .

EXAMPLES

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
