<title>Compiling against the base plugins libraries</title>
<para>
To compile against these libraries, you need to tell the compiler where to
find the header files and libraries. This is done with the
<application>pkg-config</application> utility.
</para>
<para>
The following interactive shell session demonstrates how
<application>pkg-config</application> is used:
<programlisting>
$ pkg-config --cflags gstreamer-plugins-base-&GST_MAJORMINOR;
-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -pthread -I/usr/include/gstreamer-&GST_MAJORMINOR; -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/libxml2
$ pkg-config --libs gstreamer-plugins-base-&GST_MAJORMINOR;
-Wl,--export-dynamic -pthread -lgstreamer-&GST_MAJORMINOR; -lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -ldl -lgthread-2.0 -lxml2 -lpthread -lz -lm -lglib-2.0
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
Note that, because of the number of libraries provided in this package,
the pkg-config information <emphasis>does not add -l flags</emphasis> itself
to choose the libraries to link to. You must add these yourself to select
which of the libraries you want to use.
</para>
