PCRE-CONFIG(1) General Commands Manual PCRE-CONFIG(1)
pcre-config - program to return PCRE configuration
pcre-config [--prefix] [--exec-prefix] [--version] [--libs]
[--libs16] [--libs32] [--libs-cpp] [--libs-posix]
[--cflags] [--cflags-posix]
pcre-config returns the configuration of the installed PCRE
libraries and the options required to compile a program to use
them. Some of the options apply only to the 8-bit, or 16-bit, or
32-bit libraries, respectively, and are not available if only one
of those libraries has been built. If an unavailable option is
encountered, the "usage" information is output.
--prefix
Writes the directory prefix used in the PCRE installation
for architecture independent files (/usr on many systems,
/usr/local on some systems) to the standard output.
--exec-prefix
Writes the directory prefix used in the PCRE installation
for architecture dependent files (normally the same as
--prefix) to the standard output.
--version
Writes the version number of the installed PCRE libraries
to the standard output.
--libs Writes to the standard output the command line options
required to link with the 8-bit PCRE library (-lpcre on
many systems).
--libs16
Writes to the standard output the command line options
required to link with the 16-bit PCRE library (-lpcre16 on
many systems).
--libs32
Writes to the standard output the command line options
required to link with the 32-bit PCRE library (-lpcre32 on
many systems).
--libs-cpp
Writes to the standard output the command line options
required to link with PCRE's C++ wrapper library
(-lpcrecpp -lpcre on many systems).
--libs-posix
Writes to the standard output the command line options
required to link with PCRE's POSIX API wrapper library
(-lpcreposix -lpcre on many systems).
--cflags
Writes to the standard output the command line options
required to compile files that use PCRE (this may include
some -I options, but is blank on many systems).
--cflags-posix
Writes to the standard output the command line options
required to compile files that use PCRE's POSIX API
wrapper library (this may include some -I options, but is
blank on many systems).
