NAME
     orbit2-config - helper script for building with orbit2

SYNOPSIS
     orbit2-config  [--help  ]  [--version]  [--prefix=dir]   [--
     cflags] [--libs] [--exec-prefix=dir] [--use-service=service]
     [client | server]

DESCRIPTION
     The orbit2-config tool is used to determine the compiler and
     linker  flags  that  should be used to compile and link pro-
     grams that use the orbit2 library.  It is also  used  inter-
     nally  by  the .m4 macros for GNU autoconf that are included
     with orbit. In most cases, you will use one (or both) of the
     options  --cflags  or  --libs,  depending on whether you are
     compiling or linking.

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported:

     --cflags                        Print  the  compiler   flags
                                     that  are  necessary to com-
                                     pile  a  program  using  the
                                     specified library.



     --libs                          Print the linker flags  that
                                     are  necessary  to link with
                                     the specified library.



     --exec-prefix=dir               If   specified,   use    dir
                                     instead  of the installation
                                     exec prefix that the library
                                     was built with, when comput-
                                     ing the output  for  the  --
                                     cflags  and  --libs options.
                                     This option must  be  speci-
                                     fied  before  any  --libs or
                                     --cflags options.



     --help                          Print a usage summary.



     --prefix=dir                    If   specified,   use    dir
                                     instead  of the installation
                                     prefix that the library  was

                                     built  with,  when computing
                                     the output for the  --cflags
                                     and  --libs  options.   This
                                     option  must  be   specified
                                     before   any  --libs  or  --
                                     cflags options. This  option
                                     is  also  used  for the exec
                                     prefix, if the --exec-prefix
                                     option is not specified.



     --use-service=service           If specified, provide  addi-
                                     tional  flags  (if  any) for
                                     using the specified service.
                                     Known   values  for  service
                                     are:    module    CosNaming,
                                     interfaces   LNameComponent,
                                     LName.



     --version                       Print     the      currently
                                     installed   version  of  the
                                     library on the standard out-
                                     put.



OPERANDS
