NAME
gtk-config - script to get information about the installed
version of GTK+
SYNOPSIS
gtk-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--ver-
sion] [--libs] [--cflags]
DESCRIPTION
gtk-config is a tool that is used to configure to deter-
mine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to
compile and link programs that use GTK+. It is also used
internally to the .m4 macros for GNU autoconf that are
included with GTK+.
OPTIONS
gtk-config accepts the following options:
--version
Print the currently installed version of GTK+ on
the standard output.
--libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link
a GTK+ program.
--cflags
Print the compiler flags that are necessary to
compile a GTK+ program.
--prefix=PREFIX
If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installa-
tion prefix that GTK+ was built with when comput-
ing the output for the --cflags and --libs
options. This option is also used for the exec
prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified. This
option must be specified before any --libs or
--cflags options.
--exec-prefix=PREFIX
If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installa-
tion exec prefix that GTK+ was built with when
computing the output for the --cflags and --libs
options. This option must be specified before any
--libs or --cflags options.
