<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<B>python-config</B>

<H2>EXAMPLES</H2>
To build the singe-file c program <I>prog</I> against the python library, use
<P>
<DL COMPACT><DT id="10"><DD>
gcc $(python-config --cflags --ldflags) progr.cpp -o progr.cpp
</DL>
<P>
The same in a makefile:
<P>
<DL COMPACT><DT id="11"><DD>
CFLAGS+=$(shell python-config --cflags)
</DL>
<DL COMPACT><DT id="12"><DD>
LDFLAGS+=$(shell python-config --ldflags)
</DL>
<DL COMPACT><DT id="13"><DD>
all: progr
</DL>
<P>
To build a dynamically loadable python module, use
<P>
<DL COMPACT><DT id="14"><DD>
gcc $(python-config --cflags --ldflags) -shared -fPIC progr.cpp -o progr.so
