PCAP-CONFIG(1) General Commands Manual PCAP-CONFIG(1) NAME pcap-config - write libpcap compiler and linker flags to standard output SYNOPSIS pcap-config [ --help ] [ --version ] [ --cflags ] [ --libs | --additional-libs ] [ --static | --static-pcap-only ] DESCRIPTION pcap-config writes to the standard output various compiler and linker flags required to build a user program with libpcap. By default, it writes flags appropriate for building with a dynamically-linked version of libpcap; see below for static linking. Depending on the manner of libpcap installation, some options or their combinations may produce empty output - this is by design. OPTIONS --help Produce a help message and exit. --version Produce libpcap version and exit. The version is the contents of VERSION file in libpcap source tree rather than the result of pcap_lib_version(3PCAP). --cflags Produce the -I compiler flag required to include libpcap's header files. --libs Produce the -L and -l linker flags required to link with libpcap, including -l flags for libraries required by libpcap. --additional-libs Produce the -L and -l linker flags for libraries required by libp- cap, but not the -l flag to link with libpcap itself. --static This option causes --libs and --additional-libs to produce linker flags appropriate for static linking with libpcap. --static-pcap-only This option causes --libs and --additional-libs to produce linker flags appropriate for static linking with libpcap and dynamic link- ing with all other libraries, including libraries required by libp- cap. EXIT STATUS pcap-config exits with a non-zero status when invoked with an invalid com- mand-line option, and with status 0 otherwise. BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY Before libpcap release 1.10.2 pcap-config did not treat invalid com- mand-line options as an error. The --static-pcap-only flag became available in libpcap release 1.10.2. The --static flag became available in libpcap release 1.1.0. SEE ALSO pkg-config(1), pcap(3PCAP) 17 April 2023 PCAP-CONFIG(1)
