💅 ldns-config — the little helper that tells you your flags, bestie

okay so real talk, ldns-config is a general commands manual page kinda situation, and it's here to spill the compiler and linker flags you need for ldns usage. she's small, she's useful, she's iconic. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

ldns-config [ OPTIONS ]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the vibe: when you're out here writing programs that use ldns, you can't just wish the compiler into finding your include files. you gotta tell it where to look 👀 and you also gotta tell the linker which libraries to link to and from which location. that's the whole gig.

ldns-config exists so you can find out what flags to use with the C compiler and the linker. no guessing, no crying, just flags. periodt. 💅

🦋 OPTIONS 🦋

  • --cflags — shows the C compiler flags you need to compile with ldns. compiler said "where are the headers" and this is your answer bestie 💖
  • --libs — shows the flags to be used to link with ldns. linker fuel, no cap 🔥
  • --version — shows the ldns version of the installed ldns library ✨
  • --libversion — shows version of the binary api of the installed ldns library. yes it's a different version thing than --version, she's not like other girls 🙈
  • --help — shows the ldns-config usage description. the classic "what do I even type" rescue mission 🫶
