PTHREAD-CONFIG(1)	POSIX Threading API of GNU Pth	     PTHREAD-CONFIG(1)


NAME

       pthread-config - Pth pthread library build utility


VERSION

       GNU Pth 2.0.7 (08-Jun-2006)


SYNOPSIS

       pthread-config [--help] [--version] [--all] [--prefix] [--exec-prefix]
       [--bindir] [--libdir] [--includedir] [--mandir] [--cflags] [--ldflags]
       [--libs]


DESCRIPTION

       The pthread-config program is a little helper utility for easy config-
       uring and building applications based on the pthread emulation API of
       the GNU Portable Threads (pth) 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 pth(3) library.


OPTIONS

       pthread-config accepts the following options:

       --help
	   Prints the short usage information.

       --version
	   Prints the version number and date of the installed pth(3) library.

       --all
	   Forces the output of all flags, that is, including extra flags
	   which are not Pth specific.

       --prefix
	   Prints the installation prefix of architecture independent files

       --exec-prefix
	   Prints the installation prefix of architecture dependent files.

       --bindir
	   Prints the installation directory of binaries.

       --libdir
	   Prints the installation directory of libraries.

       --includedir
	   Prints the installation directory of include headers.

       --mandir
	   Prints the installation directory of manual pages.

       --cflags
	   Prints the C compiler flags which are needed to compile the
	   pth(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 appli-
	   cation with the pth(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 appli-
	   cation with the pth(3) library. The output is usually added to the
	   "LIBS" variable of the applications "Makefile".


EXAMPLE

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

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


SEE ALSO

       pthread(3), cc(1).
