.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This plugin probes for compiler and linker flags using ExtUtils::CBuilder.  This is a useful
alternative to Alien::Build::Plugin::PkgConfig::Negotiate for packages that do not provide
a pkg-config \f(CW\*(C`.pc\*(C'\fR file, or for when those \f(CW\*(C`.pc\*(C'\fR files may not be available.  (For example,
on FreeBSD, \f(CW\*(C`libarchive\*(C'\fR is a core part of the operating system, but doesn't include a \f(CW\*(C`.pc\*(C'\fR
file which is usually provided when you install the \f(CW\*(C`libarchive\*(C'\fR package on Linux).
.SH "PROPERTIES"
.IX Header "PROPERTIES"

Any extra options that you want to have passed into the constructor to ExtUtils::CBuilder.
.SS "cflags"

The linker flags
.SS "program"
.IX Subsection "program"
The program to use in the test.
.SS "version"
.IX Subsection "version"
This is a regular expression to parse the version out of the output from the
test program.
.SS "atleast_version"
.IX Subsection "atleast_version"
The minimum required version as provided by the system.
.SS "aliens"
.IX Subsection "aliens"
List of aliens to query fro compiler and linker flags.
.SS "lang"
.IX Subsection "lang"
The programming language to use.  One of either \f(CW\*(C`C\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`C++\*(C'\fR.
