\fBmysql_config\fR
provides you with useful information for compiling your MySQL client and connecting it to MySQL\&. It is a shell script, so it is available only on Unix and Unix\-like systems\&.

\fBpkg\-config\fR
can be used as an alternative to
\fBmysql_config\fR
for obtaining information such as compiler flags or link libraries required to compile MySQL applications\&. For more information, see
Section\ \&28.7.4.2, \(lqBuilding C API Client Programs Using pkg-config\(rq\&.

\fB\-\-cflags\fR
.sp
C Compiler flags to find include files and critical compiler flags and defines used when compiling the
libmysqlclient
library\&. The options returned are tied to the specific compiler that was used when the library was created and might clash with the settings for your own compiler\&. Use
\fB\-\-include\fR
for more portable options that contain only include paths\&.

option can be used in all cases\&.

If you invoke

You can use
\fBmysql_config\fR
within a command line using backticks to include the output that it produces for particular options\&. For example, to compile and link a MySQL client program, use
\fBmysql_config\fR
as follows:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
gcc \-c `mysql_config \-\-cflags` progname\&.c
gcc \-o progname progname\&.o `mysql_config \-\-libs`
