Method: MakeMakefile#find_executable

Defined in:
lib/mkmf.rb

#find_executable(bin, path = nil) ⇒ Object

Searches for the executable bin on path. The default path is your PATH environment variable. If that isn’t defined, it will resort to searching /usr/local/bin, /usr/ucb, /usr/bin and /bin.

If found, it will return the full path, including the executable name, of where it was found.

Note that this method does not actually affect the generated Makefile.
