14 glib-config is a tool that is used to configure to determine the com‐
15 piler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link programs
16 that use GLib. It is also used internally to the .m4 macros for GNU
17 autoconf that are included with GLib.
18
20 glib-config accepts the following options:
21
22 LIBRARIES
23 GLib has three libraries 'glib', 'gmodule' and 'gthread'. If
24 you specify one of them, only the appropriate things for that
25 library will be printed.
26
27 --version
28 Print the currently installed version of GLib on the standard
29 output.
30
31 --libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a GLib pro‐
32 gram.
33
34 --cflags
35 Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a GLib
36 program.
37
38 --prefix=PREFIX
39 If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix
40 that GLib was built with when computing the output for the
41 --cflags and --libs options. This option is also used for the
42 exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified. This option
43 must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options.
44
45 --exec-prefix=PREFIX
46 If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation exec pre‐
47 fix that GLib was built with when computing the output for the
48 --cflags and --libs options. This option must be specified
49 before any --libs or --cflags options.
