.SH NAME
wx-config \- generate compile time requirements for wxWidgets applications
.SH SYNOPSIS

[\-\-version] [\-\-libs\fI[=LIBS]\fP] [\-\-cflags] [\-\-cc] [\-\-cxx] [\-\-ld]

.SH DESCRIPTION
\fIwx\-config\fP is a tool to determine the compiler and linker
flags required for applications using the \fIwxWidgets\fP toolkit(s).
.PP
\fIwx\-config\fP is normally a symlink to one of the port\-specific
versions like \fIwxbase\-config\fP or \fIwxgtk\-config\fP which
designates the default port to compile applications with.
You can override this default either by using one of the specific
versions directly, or by changing which version the symlink points to.
On Debian systems this can be done using the
.BR update\-alternatives (8)
mechanism.

.SH OPTIONS
.l
\fIwx\-config\fP accepts the following options:
.TP 15
.B  \-\-version
What to
.B ALWAYS
include in a bug report.
.TP 15
.B  \-\-libs[=LIBS]
Generate linker flags for a \fIwxWidgets\fP program.
The optional argument is a comma separated list of the wxWidgets libraries
to link with.  You may include contrib libs here too.  If no argument is
given it will assume you wish to link all 'core' libraries.
.TP 15
.B  \-\-cflags
Generate compiler flags for the same.
.TP 15
.B  \-\-cc
Output the name of the C compiler \fB$(CC)\fP.
.TP 15
.B  \-\-cxx
Output the name of the C++ compiler \fB$(CXX)\fP.
.TP 15
.B  \-\-ld
Output the Linker command \fB$(LD)\fP.
.TP 15
.B  \-\-prefix=PREFIX
If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that \fIwxWidgets\fP
was built with when computing the output for the \-\-cflags and
\-\-libs options. This option is also used for the exec prefix
if \-\-exec\-prefix was not specified. This option must be specified
before any \-\-libs or \-\-cflags options.

\-\-libs or \-\-cflags options.
