I would like ./configure to link to a library and some include files. My library is stored in /home/foo/sw/lib/ and my files are stored in /home/foo/sw/include.

./configure --help throws out the following:

Some influential environment variables:

  CC           C compiler command
  CFLAGS       C compiler flags
  LDFLAGS      linker flags, e.g. -L<lib dir> if you have libraries in a 
               nonstandard directory <lib dir>
  LIBS         libraries to pass to the linker, e.g. -l<library>
  CPPFLAGS     (Objective) C/C++ preprocessor flags, e.g. -I<include dir> if 
               you have headers in a nonstandard directory <include dir>
  CPP          C preprocessor

I have tried various combinations:

./configure --prefix=/home/foo/sw -I</home/foo/sw/include> -L</home/foo/sw/lib/>
./configure --prefix=/home/foo/sw -I=/home/foo/sw/include -L=/home/foo/sw/lib/
./configure --prefix=/home/foo/sw -I/home/foo/sw/include -L/home/foo/sw/lib/
etc..

But I can't seem to get the syntax right. If anyone can help me out, that would be greatly appreciated. THANKS!
