pcre-config returns the configuration of the installed PCRE libraries and the options required to compile a program to use them. Some of the options apply only to the 8-bit or 16-bit libraries, respectively, and are not available if only one of those libraries has been built. If an unavailable option is encountered, the "usage" information is output.
−−prefixWrites the directory prefix used in the PCRE
installation for architecture independent files
(/usr on many systems,
/usr/local on some
systems) to the standard output.
−−exec-prefixWrites the directory prefix used in the PCRE
installation for architecture dependent files (normally
the same as −−prefix) to
the standard output.
−−versionWrites the version number of the installed PCRE libraries to the standard output.
−−libsWrites to the standard output the command line
options required to link with the 8-bit PCRE library
(−lpcre on many
systems).
−−libs16Writes to the standard output the command line
options required to link with the 16-bit PCRE library
(−lpcre16 on many
systems).
−−libs-cppWrites to the standard output the command line
options required to link with PCRE's C++ wrapper
library (−lpcrecpp
−lpcre on many
systems).
−−libs-posixWrites to the standard output the command line
options required to link with PCRE's POSIX API wrapper
library (−lpcreposix
−lpcre on many
systems).
−−cflagsWrites to the standard output the command line
options required to compile files that use PCRE (this
may include some −I
options, but is blank on many systems).
−−cflags-posixWrites to the standard output the command line
options required to compile files that use PCRE's POSIX
API wrapper library (this may include some −I options, but is blank on many
systems).
This manual page was originally written by Mark Baker for the Debian GNU/Linux system. It has been subsequently revised as a generic PCRE man page.
