Extract value of C defines directly from command line

Prerequisites

cmake - required for both building and using
bash - min. version 4.0
compiler that can be picked up by cmake (also for using, not only building)

Installation

git clone https://github.com/v3l0c1r4pt0r/sadve.git

cmake ..
make
sudo make install

Usage

To get value of define AF_INET, defined in header sys/socket.h, one can call:

Then to learn size of structure sockaddr as defined in sys/socket.h, use:

sadve -s sockaddr sys/socket.h
