Get CXXFLAGS from VTK without using CMake

Question

I am developing some software using VTK. I have compiled VTK succesfully using CMake. Now I need to include the VTK headers and libs into my project. My project is using a plain old Makefile. I would like to avoid using CMake for my project.

How can i get the CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS out of my VTK installation?

Answer 1

It seems to be not possible to get the CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS out of a VTK installation without using CMake. I filed a bug about this.
