| If your system has pkgconfig then you can just add this to your makefile |
| |
| CFLAGS += $(shell pkg-config --cflags json-c) |
| LDFLAGS += $(shell pkg-config --libs json-c) |
| |
| Without pkgconfig, you would do something like this: |
| |
| JSON_C_DIR=/path/to/json_c/install |
| CFLAGS += -I$(JSON_C_DIR)/include/json-c |
| LDFLAGS+= -L$(JSON_C_DIR)/lib -ljson-c |
