PCRE2-CONFIG(1)						       PCRE2-CONFIG(1)

NAME
       pcre2-config - program to return PCRE2 configuration

SYNOPSIS

       pcre2-config [--prefix] [--exec-prefix] [--version]
		    [--libs8] [--libs16] [--libs32] [--libs-posix]
		    [--cflags] [--cflags-posix]

DESCRIPTION

       pcre2-config returns the configuration of the installed PCRE2 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 for libraries that  have  not  been
       built. If an unavailable option is encountered, the "usage" information
       is output.

OPTIONS

       --prefix	 Writes the directory prefix used in  the  PCRE2  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  PCRE2  installation
		 for architecture dependent files (normally the same as --pre‐
		 fix) to the standard output.

       --version Writes the version number of the installed PCRE2 libraries to
		 the standard output.

       --libs8	 Writes	 to  the  standard  output  the	 command  line options
		 required to link with the 8-bit PCRE2 library	(-lpcre2-8  on
		 many systems).

       --libs16	 Writes	 to  the  standard  output  the	 command  line options
		 required to link with the 16-bit PCRE2 library (-lpcre2-16 on
		 many systems).

       --libs32	 Writes	 to  the  standard  output  the	 command  line options
		 required to link with the 32-bit PCRE2 library (-lpcre2-32 on
		 many systems).

       --libs-posix
		 Writes	 to  the  standard  output  the	 command  line options
		 required to link  with	 PCRE2's  POSIX	 API  wrapper  library
		 (-lpcre2-posix -lpcre2-8 on many systems).

       --cflags	 Writes	 to  the  standard  output  the	 command  line options
		 required to compile files that use PCRE2  (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 PCRE2's POSIX API  wrapper
		 library  (this	 may  include some -I options, but is blank on
		 many systems).
