LibFinder Plugin: requirements

Hi,

for using the lib/pkg-config feature in CB, it appears to me that the following script should be registered, to make pgk-config tell the compiler lib information, in particular.
 
function SetBuildOptions(base)
{
if ( "LibFinder" in getroottable() )
{
LibFinder.SetupTarget(base);
}
}


My questions:

  • Is the script above standard to CB and usually registered? Unfortunately I cannot remember any more where I have got it from. ??? Or is there another way to get the lib finder up and running for compilation purposes?
  • All windows of the LibFinder Plugin are empty here. How can they be populated with lib information known to pkg-config? Is there any manual on how to proceed once the lib infos are fed into the lib finder?

BTW: Some lib finder features make CB freeze I am hoping to overcome when libfinder gets all the information for running without any issues.

I am living on Win10 with CB16.01.

Many thanks!
J.

If you're on windows how have you installed pkg-config? It is mostly a linux/unix feature/system.

Onto the question - I'm not sure what you're talking about. This script doesn't reveal much, too.
Please post exact steps to reproduce the problem.
