NAME¶
pcap-config - write libpcap compiler and linker flags to standard output
SYNOPSIS¶
pcap-config [
--static ] [
--cflags | --libs |
--additional-libs ]
DESCRIPTION¶
When run with the
--cflags option,
pcap-config writes to the
standard output the
-I compiler flags required to include libpcap's
header files. When run with the
--libs option,
pcap-config
writes to the standard output the
-L and
-l linker flags
required to link with libpcap, including
-l flags for libraries
required by libpcap. When run with the
--additional-libs option,
pcap-config writes to the standard output the
-L and
-l
flags for libraries required by libpcap, but not the
-lpcap flag to
link with libpcap itself.
By default, it writes flags appropriate for compiling with a dynamically-linked
version of libpcap; the
--static flag causes it to write flags
appropriate for compiling with a statically-linked version of libpcap.
