Compiling Logging quickstart.cc using g++

How to compile Logging quickstart.cc using g++ instead of CMake

[coryan]

Maybe this answers your question?

google-cloud-cpp/google/cloud/logging/quickstart/Makefile

Lines 27 to 35 in cc5834b

	# Configuration variables to compile and link against the Cloud Logging API C++
	# client library.
	CLIENT_MODULE := google_cloud_cpp_logging
	CLIENT_CXXFLAGS := $(shell pkg-config $(CLIENT_MODULE) --cflags)
	CLIENT_CXXLDFLAGS := $(shell pkg-config $(CLIENT_MODULE) --libs-only-L)
	CLIENT_LIBS := $(shell pkg-config $(CLIENT_MODULE) --libs-only-l)
	$(BIN)/quickstart: quickstart.cc
	$(CXXLD) $(CXXFLAGS) $(CLIENT_CXXFLAGS) $(CLIENT_CXXLDFLAGS) -o $@ $^ $(CLIENT_LIBS)

Where CXXLD is defined as:

google-cloud-cpp/google/cloud/logging/quickstart/Makefile

Lines 20 to 22 in cc5834b

	CXX=g++
	CXXFLAGS=
	CXXLD=$(CXX)

Please do not hard-code the current output of pkg-config --libs-only -l google_cloud_cpp_logging in your build scripts. We guarantee to keep this module name (though it is not-quite-GA yet, it is unlikely to change by the time it becomes GA). We do not guarantee that its output won't change over time.
