"MACRO" for definitions without value.
- debug_cflags => Extra compilation flags used when making a
- debug build (when Configure receives the
- --debug option). Typically something like
- "-g -O0".
- debug_defines => Similarly to `debug_cflags', this gets
- combined with `defines' during a debug
- build. The value here MUST also be an
- array of the same form as for `defines'.
- release_cflags => Extra compilation flags used when making a
- release build (when Configure receives the
- --release option, or doesn't receive the
- --debug option). Typically something like
- "-O" or "-O3".
- release_defines => Similarly to `release_cflags', this gets

- thread_cflags => Extra compilation flags used when

- thread_defines => Similarly to `thread_cflags', this gets

shared_cflag => Extra compilation flags used when
compiling for shared libraries, typically
something like "-fPIC".
ex_libs => Extra libraries that are needed when
linking.
- debug_lflags => Like debug_cflags, but used when linking.
- release_lflags => Like release_cflags, but used when linking.
-
ar => The library archive command, the default is
"ar".

"libbar" everywhere?), it does make sense when it can be used
conditionally. See a little further below for an example.
+In some cases, it's desirable to include some source files in the
+shared form of a library only:
+
+ SHARED_SOURCE[libfoo]=dllmain.c
+
For any file to be built, it's also possible to tell what extra
include paths the build of their source files should use:
INCLUDE[foo]=include
-It's possible to have raw build file lines, between BEGINRAW and
-ENDRAW lines as follows:
+In some cases, one might want to generate some source files from
+others, that's done as follows:
+
+ GENERATE[foo.s]=asm/something.pl $(CFLAGS)
+ GENERATE[bar.s]=asm/bar.S
+
+The value of each GENERATE line is a command line or part of it.
+Configure places no rules on the command line, except the the first
+item muct be the generator file. It is, however, entirely up to the
+build file template to define exactly how those command lines should
+be handled, how the output is captured and so on.
+
+Sometimes, the generator file itself depends on other files, for
+example if it is a perl script that depends on other perl modules.
+This can be expressed using DEPEND like this:
+
+ DEPEND[asm/something.pl]=../perlasm/Foo.pm
+
+There may also be cases where the exact file isn't easily specified,
+but an inclusion directory still needs to be specified. INCLUDE can
+be used in that case:
+
+ INCLUDE[asm/something.pl]=../perlasm
+
+NOTE: GENERATE lines are limited to one command only per GENERATE.
+
+As a last resort, it's possible to have raw build file lines, between
+BEGINRAW and ENDRAW lines as follows:
BEGINRAW[Makefile(unix)]
haha.h: {- $builddir -}/Makefile
build hoho.h: echo "/* hoho */" > hoho.h
ENDRAW[build.ninja(unix)]
+Should it be needed because the recipes within a RAW section might
+clash with those generated by Configure, it's possible to tell it
+not to generate them with the use of OVERRIDES, for example:
+
+ SOURCE[libfoo]=foo.c bar.c
+
+ OVERRIDES=bar.o
+ BEGINRAW[Makefile(unix)]
+ bar.o: bar.c
+ $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -DSPECIAL -c -o $@ $<
+ ENDRAW[Makefile(unix)]
+
See the documentation further up for more information on configuration
items.
Together with the use of Text::Template, this can be used as
conditions based on something in the passed variables, for example:
- IF[{- $config{no_shared} -}]
+ IF[{- $disabled{shared} -}]

SOURCE[libcrypto]=...

perl functions in a perl code fragment enclosed with "{-" and "-}".
They are all expected to return a string with the lines they produce.
- src2dep - function that produces build file lines to get the
- dependencies for an object file into a dependency
- file.
+ generatesrc - function that produces build file lines to generate
+ a source file from some input.
It's called like this:
- src2dep(obj => "PATH/TO/objectfile",
- srcs => [ "PATH/TO/sourcefile", ... ],
- incs => [ "INCL/PATH", ... ]);
-
- 'obj' has the dependent object file as well as
- object file the dependencies are for; it's *without*
- extension, src2dep() is expected to add that.
- 'srcs' has the list of source files to build the
- object file, with the first item being the source
- file that directly corresponds to the object file.
- 'incs' is a list of include file directories.
+ generatesrc(src => "PATH/TO/tobegenerated",
+ generator => [ "generatingfile", ... ]
+ generator_incs => [ "INCL/PATH", ... ]
+ generator_deps => [ "dep1", ... ]
+ generator => [ "generatingfile", ... ]
+ incs => [ "INCL/PATH", ... ],
+ deps => [ "dep1", ... ],
+ intent => one of "libs", "dso", "bin" );
+
+ 'src' has the name of the file to be generated.
+ 'generator' is the command or part of command to
+ generate the file, of which the first item is
+ expected to be the file to generate from.
+ generatesrc() is expected to analyse and figure out
+ exactly how to apply that file and how to capture
+ the result. 'generator_incs' and 'generator_deps'
+ are include directories and files that the generator
+ file itself depends on. 'incs' and 'deps' are
+ include directories and files that are used if $(CC)
+ is used as an intermediary step when generating the
+ end product (the file indicated by 'src'). 'intent'
+ indicates what the generated file is going to be
+ used for.
src2obj - function that produces build file lines to build an
object file from source files and associated data.
src2obj(obj => "PATH/TO/objectfile",
srcs => [ "PATH/TO/sourcefile", ... ],
deps => [ "dep1", ... ],
- incs => [ "INCL/PATH", ... ]);
+ incs => [ "INCL/PATH", ... ]
+ intent => one of "lib", "dso", "bin" );
'obj' has the intended object file *without*
extension, src2obj() is expected to add that.
'srcs' has the list of source files to build the
object file, with the first item being the source
file that directly corresponds to the object file.
- 'deps' is a list of dependencies. 'incs' is a list
- of include file directories.
+ 'deps' is a list of explicit dependencies. 'incs'
+ is a list of include file directories. Finally,
+ 'intent' indicates what this object file is going
+ to be used for.
obj2lib - function that produces build file lines to build a
static library file ("libfoo.a" in Unix terms) from
'lib' has the intended library file name *without*
extension, libobj2shlib is expected to add that.
- 'shlib' has the correcponding shared library name
+ 'shlib' has the corresponding shared library name
*without* extension. 'deps' has the list of other
libraries (also *without* extension) this library
needs to be linked with. 'objs' has the list of
corresponding static library as input to make the
shared library, or the list of object files.
- obj2dynlib - function that produces build file lines to build a
- dynamically loadable library file ("libfoo.so" on
- Unix) from object files.
+ obj2dso - function that produces build file lines to build a
+ dynamic shared object file from object files.
called like this:
- obj2dynlib(lib => "PATH/TO/libfile",
- objs => [ "PATH/TO/objectfile", ... ],
- deps => [ "PATH/TO/otherlibfile",
- ... ]);
+ obj2dso(lib => "PATH/TO/libfile",
+ objs => [ "PATH/TO/objectfile", ... ],
+ deps => [ "PATH/TO/otherlibfile",
+ ... ]);
This is almost the same as libobj2shlib, but the
intent is to build a shareable library that can be
directory.
Make sure to end the section with these functions with a string that
-you thing is apropriate for the resulting build file. If nothing
+you thing is appropriate for the resulting build file. If nothing
