149When compilation has finished, look in the top-level <code>lib/</code>
150(or <code>lib64/</code>) directory.
151You'll see a set of library files similar to this:

163<b>libGL</b> is the main OpenGL library (i.e. Mesa).
164<br>
Brian Paul7103a182012-04-19 09:56:36 -0600[diff] [blame]165<b>libOSMesa</b> is the OSMesa (Off-Screen) interface library.
166</p>

169If you built the DRI hardware drivers, you'll also see the DRI drivers:

179If you built with Gallium support, look in lib/gallium/ for Gallium-based
180versions of libGL and device drivers.

Brian5bba58c2007-09-12 10:11:49 -0600[diff] [blame]185
186<p>
187Running <code>make install</code> will install package configuration files
188for the pkg-config utility.
189</p>
190
191<p>
192When compiling your OpenGL application you can use pkg-config to determine
193the proper compiler and linker flags.
194</p>
195
196<p>
197For example, compiling and linking a GLUT application can be done with:
198</p>
199<pre>
200 gcc `pkg-config --cflags --libs glut` mydemo.c -o mydemo
201</pre>
