NAME
       var-config - OSSP var library build utility

VERSION
       OSSP var	1.1.3 (02-Oct-2005)

SYNOPSIS
       var-config  [--help]  [--version]  [--all]  [--prefix]  [--exec-prefix]
       [--bindir] [--libdir] [--includedir] [--mandir]	[--datadir]  [--acdir]
       [--cflags] [--ldflags] [--libs] [--libs++]

DESCRIPTION
       The  var-config program is a little helper utility for easy configuring
       and building applications based on the OSSP var	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	OSSP  var  li-
       brary.

OPTIONS
       var-config accepts the following	options:

       --help
	   Prints the short usage information.

       --version
	   Prints  the	version	 number	and date of the	installed OSSP var li-
	   brary.

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

       --datadir
	   Prints the installation directory of	shared data.

       --cflags
	   Prints  the	C  compiler flags which	are needed to compile the OSSP
	   var 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 OSSP	var 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 C OSSP var library.	The output is usually added to
	   the "LIBS" variable of the applications "Makefile".

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

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