Link against System Librarys, without using search paths.
Make rules available in your current module.
import system-libs ;
-
rule system-libs ( names + : properties * : usage-requirements * )
Scan search paths provided in properties for the given names libraries.
Names is a glob pattern.
usage-requirements are passed to any created library as the respective argument.
Returns the library names created.
-
<path> path
Search path for libraries -
<cc-search-dirs>
If present search paths returned bycc -print-search-dirs -
<exclude> glob-pattern
Exclude any libraries matched by names and matched by glob_pattern. -
<FEATURE> value
Created lib will have <FEATURE>value property in its requirements.
Libs that would conflict, are not created. -
<target-prefix> prefix
prefix for the created main target name. -
<threading-tag> tag
postfix tag of lib names that indicate threading distinction.
Specifically the multi threaded type.
Boost example: -mt -
<debug>
Print debug information for each library made. -
<headers-only> target
Create a headers only alias target named target. -
<system-lib-rpath> no | yes
Default to no.
If yes, created lib will add its base-path to rpath for dependent linking targets.
-
<homebrew> formula
formula to find library in.
If the cellar for formula has a /include path, it will be set as a property value for <include> feature of usage-requirements of created libraries.
Will prompt operate to brew install the formula if it isn't installed. -
<homebrew-version> version
Require formula identified by previous <homebrew> feature to be exact version identified by version. -
<homebrew-with> arg-string
Require formula identified by previous <homebrew> feature to have been installed --with-arg-string.
- <apt> package
package to find the library in.
If package has a non-standard include path, it will be set as a property value for <include> feature of usage-requirements for created libraries.
