The cernlib command

 

The cernlib command has been designed to ease access to the CERN program library software, while allowing access to user libraries. It is platform-independent and accepts the POSIX syntax. Note that you must have the directory /cern/pro/bin in your path in order to use this command. 

 
 cernlib 		 grants access to packlib


 cernlib mathlib 		 grants access to mathlib and packlib


 cernlib -L $DELPHI_LIBS -l  dstanaxx -l ux26xx


 		 grants access to libraries  dstanaxx and  ux26xx in the
directory


 		defined by the environment variable DELPHI_LIBS
The cernlib command is used in combination with the link command by enclosing it in back-quotes on the link command line. For example if you use the f77 command for linking: 
 
               		  f77 -o  myprog myprog.o `cernlib mathlib
graflib/X11 ....`
