B.16 ppw-config

By default, the ppw-config command prints configuration information about the current installation of PPW to stdout and displays a usage screen. When given the --config option, ppw-config will display configuration information only and exit. This command prints out nearly the same information that is displayed at the end of the configuration process when you build PPW from source, which is useful for checking if PPW has been configured with support for pthreads, etc.

B.16.1 Invoking ppw-config

To invoke ppw-config, use the following syntax:

     
     ppw-config [--version|--config|--help]
     

B.16.2 ppw-config Command Options

ppw-config understands the following options:

--config

Display configuration information about the current installation of PPW to stdout.

--version

Print the version of PPW that is currently installed and exit.

--help

Show the help screen and exit.

ppw-config will also accept each command with a single dash instead of two, so you can type

     $ ppw-config -version ...

instead of

     $ ppw-config --version ...
