1 什么是pkg-config
pkg-config是一个linux下的命令，用于获得某一个库/模块的所有编译安装相关的信息。
例子：pkg-config opencv –libs –cflags
结果： -I/usr/include/opencv
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_calib3d.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_contrib.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_core.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_features2d.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_flann.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_gpu.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_highgui.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_imgproc.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_legacy.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_ml.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_objdetect.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_ocl.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_photo.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_stitching.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_superres.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_ts.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_video.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopencv_videostab.so
-lopencv_calib3d -lopencv_contrib -lopencv_core -lopencv_features2d -lopencv_flann -lopencv_gpu -lopencv_highgui -lopencv_imgproc -lopencv_legacy -lopencv_ml -lopencv_objdetect -lopencv_ocl -lopencv_photo -lopencv_stitching -lopencv_superres -lopencv_ts -lopencv_video -lopencv_videostab
2 为什么要有pkg-config
从上面的例子，可以看出，pkg-config给出了opencv的头文件和库的所有信息！
这有什么好处？
所有用opencv的其他程序，在编译时，只需要写“pkg-config opencv –libs –cflags”,而不需要自己去找opencv的头文件在哪里，要链接的库在哪里！省时省力！
使用和不适用的对比：
g++ -g test.cpp -o test -I /usr/local/ImageMagick/include/ImageMagick-7 -L /usr/local/ImageMagick/lib/ -lMagick++-7.Q16HDRI
g++ test.cpp `pkg-config --cflags --libs Magick++-7.Q16HDRI`特别在依赖第三库时：
如果Magick++-7.Q16HDRI依赖的库刚好被你的程序中使用和依赖，你将需要无休止的去查找依赖的库，而使用pkg-config，pkg-config将都会帮你搞定。
3 pkg-config的信息从哪里来？
很简单，有2种路径：
第一种：取系统的/usr/lib下的所有*.pc文件。
第二种：PKG_CONFIG_PATH环境变量所指向的路径下的所有*.pc文件。
这些pc文件什么时候有的？都是在你安装某个库/模块的时候，添加的。比如你往系统安装opencv时，就会在你的安装目录下，放一个/usr/local/opencv/lib64/pkgconfig/opencv.pc。 （我的安装目录/usr/local/opencv/）
[root@localhost tmp]# ls /usr/local/opencv/lib64/pkgconfig/
opencv.pc
看看pc文件的具体内容
prefix=/usr/local/opencv
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib64
includedir_old=${prefix}/include/opencv
includedir_new=${prefix}/include
Name: OpenCV
Description: Open Source Computer Vision Library
Version: 3.4.0
Libs: -L${exec_prefix}/lib64 -lopencv_dnn -lopencv_ml -lopencv_objdetect -lopencv_shape -lopencv_stitching -lopencv_superres -lopencv_videostab -lopencv_calib3d -lopencv_features2d -lopencv_highgui -lopencv_videoio -lopencv_imgcodecs -lopencv_video -lopencv_photo -lopencv_imgproc -lopencv_flann -lopencv_core
Libs.private: -L${exec_prefix}/share/OpenCV/3rdparty/lib64 -littnotify -llibprotobuf -llibjpeg -llibwebp -llibtiff -llibjasper -lIlmImf -lgtk-x11-2.0 -lgdk-x11-2.0 -latk-1.0 -lgio-2.0 -lpangoft2-1.0 -lpangocairo-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lcairo -lpango-1.0 -lfontconfig -lfreetype -L/lib64 -lpng -lz -lgstbase-0.10 -lgstreamer-0.10 -lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -lgthread-2.0 -lxml2 -lglib-2.0 -lgstvideo-0.10 -lgstapp-0.10 -lgstriff-0.10 -lgstpbutils-0.10 -ldc1394 -lavcodec -lavformat -lavutil -lswscale -ldl -lm -lpthread -lrt
Cflags: -I${includedir_old} -I${includedir_new}一目了然，就是存了所有opencv的头文件/库的路径信息。和第一步我们敲的”pkg-config opencv –libs –cflags”的结果，是一样一样的~~~
4 pkg-config都有哪些命令参数
所有参数，可以通过pkg-config –help来查看。
4.1 “pkg-config [NAME] –cflags”，查看头文件信息。(注意这里是2个“-”，不知道为啥我原文写2个“-”)
[root@localhost tmp]# pkg-config opencv --cflags
-I/usr/local/opencv/include/opencv -I/usr/local/opencv/include 4.2 pkg-config [NAME] –libs，查看库信息。
[root@localhost tmp]# pkg-config opencv --libs
-L/usr/local/opencv/lib64 -lopencv_dnn -lopencv_ml -lopencv_objdetect -lopencv_shape -lopencv_stitching -lopencv_superres -lopencv_videostab -lopencv_calib3d -lopencv_features2d -lopencv_highgui -lopencv_videoio -lopencv_imgcodecs -lopencv_video -lopencv_photo -lopencv_imgproc -lopencv_flann -lopencv_core 4.3 pkg-config –list-all。查看pkg-config的所有模块信息。
