NAME

uuid-config − OSSP uuid API build utility

uuid-config [−−help] [−−version] [−−all] [−−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 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.

OPTIONS

uuid-config accepts the following options:
−−help

Prints the short usage information.

−−version

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

−−all

Forces the output of all flags, that is, including extra flags which are not OSSP uuid specific.

−−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.

EXAMPLE

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
