PCRE-CONFIG(1)              General Commands Manual             PCRE-CONFIG(1)

NAME
       pcre-config - program to return PCRE configuration

SYNOPSIS
       pcre-config  [--prefix]  [--exec-prefix]  [--version] [--libs] [--libs-
       posix] [--cflags] [--cflags-posix]

DESCRIPTION
       pcre-config returns the configuration of the installed PCRE  libraries:
       the options required to compile a program to use them.

OPTIONS
       --prefix  Writes the directory prefix used in the PCRE installation for
                 architecture independent files (e.g. /usr) to  standard  out-
                 put.

       --exec-prefix
                 Writes the directory prefix used in the PCRE installation for
                 architecture dependent files (normally the same as  --prefix)
                 to standard output.

       --version Writes the version of PCRE installed to standard output.

       --libs    Writes  to  standard output the command line options required
                 to link with PCRE (e.g. -lpcre).

       --libs-posix
                 Writes to standard output the command line  options  required
                 to   link   with  the  PCRE  POSIX  emulation  library  (e.g.
                 -lpcreposix -lpcre).

       --cflags  Writes to standard output the command line  options  required
                 to  compile  files that use PCRE (this often includes some -I
                 options, but is blank on debian systems).

       --cflags-posix
                 Writes to standard output the command line  options  required
                 to  compile  files  that use the PCRE POSIX emulation library
                 (this often includes some -I options, but is blank on  debian
                 systems).  Suppress printing of filenames when searching mul-
                 tiple files.
