NAME

       Alien::Build::Plugin::Probe::CBuilder - Probe for system libraries by guessing with
       ExtUtils::CBuilder

VERSION

       version 2.80

SYNOPSIS

        use alienfile;
        plugin 'Probe::CBuilder' => (
          cflags => '-I/opt/libfoo/include',
          libs   => '-L/opt/libfoo/lib -lfoo',
        );

       alternately:

        ues alienfile;
        plugin 'Probe::CBuilder' => (
          aliens => [ 'Alien::libfoo', 'Alien::libbar' ],
        );

DESCRIPTION

       This plugin probes for compiler and linker flags using ExtUtils::CBuilder.  This is a
       useful alternative to Alien::Build::Plugin::PkgConfig::Negotiate for packages that do not
       provide a pkg-config ".pc" file, or for when those ".pc" files may not be available.  (For
       example, on FreeBSD, "libarchive" is a core part of the operating system, but doesn't
       include a ".pc" file which is usually provided when you install the "libarchive" package
       on Linux).
