fastjet-config

## NAME

fastjet-config - fastjet-config

## DESCRIPTION

This is FastJet configuration tool. Usage:

-

  fastjet-config \[--help\] \[--version\] \[--prefix\] \[--cxxflags\] \[--libs\]

-

  \[--shared\[=yes\|no\]\] \[--plugins\[=yes\|no\]\] \[--rpath\[=yes\|no\]\] \[--runpath\] \[--list-plugins\] \[--config\]

The arguments can be either queries (one must be present):

- **--help**

  prints this message and exits

- **--version**

  prints FastJet version and exits

- **--prefix**

  gets the FastJet installation directory

- **--cxxflags**

  returns the compilation flags to be used with C++ programs

- **--libs**

  returns the flags to pass to the linker

or flags (optional):

- **--shared**

  controls whether you want to use the static or shared lib (default=yes)

- **--plugins**

  controls whether you also want to link the FastJet plugins (default=no)

- **--rpath**

  adds a **-rpath** argument at link-time that points to the directory where FastJet libraries are installed. This avoid having to set LD\_LIBRARY\_PATH at runtime when using shared libs in a non standard location (but may cause the program to inadvertently pick up other shared libraries that happen to be in the FastJet installation directory). (default=yes)

- **--runpath**

  at link-time, adds info about the directory where FastJet libraries are installed to the runpath (ELF systens only). This avoids having to set LD\_LIBRARY\_PATH at runtime when using shared libs in a non standard location but gives priority to an existing LD\_LIBRARY\_PATH.

- **--list-plugins**

  list all the available plugins

- **--config**

  shows a summary of how FastJet was configured
