💖 GTKADA-CONFIG 💖

okay bestie, so this is the gtkada-config page from the GtkAda programming manual, and it's literally just a lil script that tells you stuff about the GTKADA you've got installed. she's small, she's helpful, she's the friend who tells you what to wear to the linker party 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

gtkada-config — a script to get information about the installed version of GTKADA 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

gtkada-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--libs] [--cflags]
[--static]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like, gtkada-config is the tool you use to configure stuff — it figures out the compiler and linker flags you should be using to compile and link programs that use GTKADA. no cap, that's the whole job. she hands you the flags so you don't have to go hunting for them yourself 💅

✨ OPTIONS ✨

gtkada-config accepts the following options, and yes we're going through every single one because we don't skip 💖

  • --version — prints the currently installed version of GTKADA right onto the standard output. it's giving "hi bestie, here's what version you've got" ✨
  • --libs — prints the linker flags that are necessary to link a GTKADA program. the link-up essentials 🔗
  • --cflags — prints the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a GTKADA program. compile slay 🔥
  • --static — prints the flags that are necessary to statically build a GTKADA program. static build, standing still, iconic 👑
  • --prefix=PREFIX — if you specify this, then PREFIX gets used instead of the installation prefix that GTKADA was built with when it's computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options.
🚨 IMPORTANT BESTIE 🚨 this option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options. order matters, she's picky like that 😭
