NAME

       regina-engine-config - get information about the installed version of Regina

SYNOPSIS

       regina-engine-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--libs] [--cflags]

DESCRIPTION

       regina-engine-config  tells  you which compiler and linker flags should be used to build the mathematical
       engine of Regina into your own programs.  Regina's mathematical  engine  is  in  the  library  libregina-
       engine.so.

       Regina  is  a  software  package  for  studying  3-manifold triangulations and normal surfaces. Other key
       features include angle structures, census enumeration, combinatorial recognition of  triangulations,  and
       high-level tasks such as 3-sphere recognition and connected sum decomposition.

OPTIONS

       regina-engine-config accepts the following options.

       --prefix=DIR
              Use  DIR  instead  of the installation prefix that Regina 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
              is not specified.  This option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options.  If no DIR
              is specified then the current installation prefix will be written to standard output.

              Most people will not need this option.

       --exec-prefix=DIR
              Use DIR instead of the installation exec prefix that Regina was  built  with  when  computing  the
              output  for  the  --cflags and --libs options.  This option must be specified before any --libs or
              --cflags options.  If no DIR is specified then  the  current  installation  exec  prefix  will  be
              written to standard output.

              Most people will not need this option.

       --version
              Print the currently installed version of Regina.

       --libs Print the linker flags that are required to link a program against the Regina calculation engine.

       --cflags
              Print  the  compiler flags that are required to compile a program that uses the Regina calculation
              engine.
