NAME 

mm-config - OSSP mm library configuration/build utility

VERSION 

OSSP mm 1.4.1 (10-Aug-2006)

SYNOPSIS 

mm-config [--help] [--version] [--cflags] [--ldflags] [--libs]

DESCRIPTION 

The mm-config program is a little helper utility for easy configuring and building applications based on the (3) library. It can be used to query the C compiler and linker flags which are required to correctly compile and link the application against the (3) library.

OPTIONS 

mm-config accepts the following options:
--help
Prints the short usage information.
--version
Prints the version number and date of the installed (3) library.
--cflags
Prints the C compiler flags which are needed to compile the (3)-based application. The output is usually added to the "CFLAGS" variable of the applications "Makefile".
--ldflags
Prints the linker flags ("-L") which are needed to link the application with the (3) library. The output is usually added to the "LDFLAGS" variable of the applications "Makefile".
--libs
Prints the library flags ("-l") which are needed to link the application with the (3) library. The output is usually added to the "LIBS" variable of the applications "Makefile".

EXAMPLE 

 CC=cc
 CFLAGS=-O `mm-config --cflags`
 LDFLAGS=`mm-config --ldflags`
 LIBS=-lm `mm-config --libs`

 all: foo
 foo: foo.o
     $(CC) $(LDFLAGS) -o foo foo.o $(LIBS)
 foo.o: foo.c
     $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c foo.c
