 <a name="SEC2" href="#TOC1">DESCRIPTION</a> 

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, or 32-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.

 <a name="SEC3" href="#TOC1">OPTIONS</a> 

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


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


--libs
Writes to the standard output the command line options required to link
with the 8-bit PCRE library (-lpcre on many systems).


--libs16
Writes to the standard output the command line options required to link
with the 16-bit PCRE library (-lpcre16 on many systems).


--libs32
Writes to the standard output the command line options required to link
with the 32-bit PCRE library (-lpcre32 on many systems).


--libs-cpp
Writes to the standard output the command line options required to link with
PCRE's C++ wrapper library (-lpcrecpp -lpcre on many
systems).


--libs-posix
Writes to the standard output the command line options required to link with
PCRE's POSIX API wrapper library (-lpcreposix -lpcre on many
systems).


--cflags
Writes 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-posix
Writes 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).
