LIBART2-CONFIG(1)

πŸ’– LIBART2-CONFIG πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for libart2-config, living in section 1 of the manual. it's a little script, it's a helpful little script, and it's here to tell you everything you need to know about the libart 2.x you've got installed. πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

libart2-config β€” a script to get information about the installed version of libart 2.x πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

libart2-config [ --prefix[=DIR] ] [ --exec-prefix[=DIR] ] [ --libs ] [ --cflags ] [ --version ]

no cap, that's the whole vibe. five options, all optional, all iconic. πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

libart2-config is a tool that is used to determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link programs that use libart library. 🫢

that's it. that's the job. it tells you which flags to feed your compiler and which flags to feed your linker so your libart-using program actually builds instead of throwing a tantrum. it's giving build-system bestie energy and we're obsessed. 😭


⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

  • --prefix=PREFIX β€” if you specify this, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that libart was built with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options. this one also gets used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified. ⚠️ and listen, this is important: this option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options. order matters, bestie, don't test it.
  • --exec-prefix=PREFIX β€” if you specify this, use PREFIX instead of the installation exec prefix that libart was built with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options. same rule as above, queen: this option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options. πŸ™ˆ
  • --libs β€” print the linker flags that are necessary to link a libart program. πŸ”₯
  • --cflags β€” print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a libart program. ✨
  • --version β€” print the currently installed version of libart on the standard output. 🌸

like, they wrote it for Debian GNU/Linux but they said other people can use it too, which is so generous of them honestly. πŸ’œ
