NAME

       Alien::Build::Plugin::PkgConfig::CommandLine - Probe system and
       determine library or tool properties using the pkg-config command line
       interface


VERSION

       version 2.80


SYNOPSIS

        use alienfile;
        plugin 'PkgConfig::CommandLine' => (
          pkg_name => 'libfoo',
        );


DESCRIPTION

       Note: in most case you will want to use
       Alien::Build::Plugin::PkgConfig::Negotiate instead.  It picks the
       appropriate fetch plugin based on your platform and environment.  In
       some cases you may need to use this plugin directly instead.

       This plugin provides Probe and Gather steps for pkg-config based
       packages.  It uses the best command line tools to accomplish this task.


PROPERTIES

   pkg_name
       The package name.  If this is a list reference then .pc files with all
       those package names must be present.  The first name will be the
       primary and used by default once installed.  For the subsequent ".pc"
       files you can use the Alien::Base alt method to retrieve the alternate
       configurations once the Alien is installed.

   atleast_version
       The minimum required version that is acceptable version as provided by
       the system.

   exact_version
       The exact required version that is acceptable version as provided by
       the system.

   max_version
       The max required version that is acceptable version as provided by the
       system.

   minimum_version
       Alias for "atleast_version" for backward compatibility.


METHODS

   available
        my $bool = Alien::Build::Plugin::PkgConfig::CommandLine->available;

       Returns true if the necessary prereqs for this plugin are already
       installed.
