NAME
        curl-config - Get information about a libcurl installation
 
SYNOPSIS
        curl-config [options]
 
DESCRIPTION
        curl-config displays information about a previous curl and
        libcurl installation.
 
OPTIONS
        --cflags
               What  set  of CFLAGS that was used when libcurl was
               built. This is mostly a debug option that serves no
               particular use to most people.
 
        --feature
               Lists  what  particular main features the installed
               libcurl was built with. At  the  time  of  writing,
               this  list  may  include  SSL, KRB4 or IPv6. Do not
               assume any particular order. The keywords  will  be
               separated  by  newlines.  There may be none, one or
               several keywords in the list.
 
        --help Displays the available options.
 
        --libs Shows the complete set of  libs  and  other  linker
               options  you will need in order to link your appli­
               cation with libcurl.
 
        --prefix
               This is the prefix used when libcurl was installed.
               Libcurl  is  then  installed in $prefix/lib and its
               header files are installed in  $prefix/include  and
               so on. The prefix is set with "configure --prefix".
 
        --version
               Outputs version  information  about  the  installed
               libcurl.
 
        --vernum
               Outputs  version  information  about  the installed
               libcurl, in numerical mode.  This outputs the  ver­
               sion  number,  in hexadecimal, with 8 bits for each
               part; major, minor, patch. So  that  libcurl  7.7.4
               would  appear  as 070704 and libcurl 12.13.14 would
               appear as 0c0d0e...
 
 EXAMPLES
        What is the path to the curl header files?
 
          echo `curl-config --prefix`/include
 
        What is the path to libcurl?
 
          echo `curl-config --prefix`/lib
 
        What other linker options do  I  need  when  I  link  with
        libcurl?
 
          curl-config --libs
 
        How do I know if libcurl was built with SSL support?
 
          curl-config --feature | grep SSL
 
        What's the installed libcurl version?
 
          curl-config --version
