gpgrt-config1

Usage

Overview

gpgrt-config is a script tool that is used by the autoconf macros shipped with gnupg software (e.g., AM_PATH_GPG_ERROR and AM_PATH_GPGME) to determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link programs that use the specific library (e.g., libgpg-error or libgpgme). gpgrt-config uses pkg-config .pc files as data source.

Apart from options gpgrt-config accepts a single argument module specifying the basename (without the ".pc"-suffix) of the pkg-config file to be used as input. module will default to gpg-error if it is not specified.

Options

gpgrt-config accepts the following options:

--libdir=LIBDIR

Parent directory path of pkgconfig file search path. e.g., ‘gpgrt-config --libdir=/usr/lib --exists gpgme’ will parse ‘/usr/lib/pkgconfig/gpgme.pc’.

--exists

Test whether the pkg-config file ‘module.pc’ exist and exits with success or error accordingly.

--modversion

Print the currently installed version of module on the standard output.

--libs

Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a program using the module.

--cflags

Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program using the module.

--static

Modifies output if linking statically instead of dynamically.

--variable=VARNAME

Output variable VARNAME from the module's pkg-config file.
