Efreet is a library your application links to. The procedure for this is very simple. You simply have to compile your application with the appropriate compiler flags that the {\ttfamily pkg-\/config} script outputs. Mime and Thrash are separated modules. For example, to compile with mime support\+:

Compiling C or C++ files into object files\+:

\begin{DoxyVerb}gcc -c -o main.o main.c `pkg-config --cflags efreet efreet-mime`
\end{DoxyVerb}


Linking object files into a binary executable\+:

\begin{DoxyVerb}gcc -o my_application main.o `pkg-config --libs efreet efreet-mime`
\end{DoxyVerb}


See \mbox{\hyperlink{pkgconfig}{pkgconfig}}\hypertarget{efreet_main_efreet_main_next_steps}{}\doxysection{Next Steps}\label{efreet_main_efreet_main_next_steps}
After you understood what Efreet is and installed it in your system you should proceed understanding the programming interface.
