Typing 'perlcc a.p' +compiles the code inside a.p into a standalone executable, and +perlcc A.pm will compile into a shared object, A.so, suitable for inclusion +into a perl program via "use A". + +There are quite a few flags to perlcc which help with such issues as compiling +programs in bulk, testing compiled programs for compatibility with the +interpreter, and controlling. + +=head1 OPTIONS + +=over 4 + +=item -L < library_directories > + +Adds directories in B<library_directories> to the compilation command. + +=item -I < include_directories > + +Adds directories inside B<include_directories> to the compilation command. + +=item -C < c_code_name > + +Explicitly gives the name B<c_code_name> to the generated c code which is to +be compiled. Can only be used if compiling one file on the command line. + +=item -o < executable_name > + +Explicitly gives the name B<executable_name> to the executable which is to be +compiled. Can only be used if compiling one file on the command line. + +=item -e < perl_line_to_execute> + +Compiles 'one liners', in the same way that B<perl -e> runs text strings at +the command line. Default is to have the 'one liner' be compiled, and run all +in one go (see B<-run>); giving the B<-o> flag saves the resultant executable, +rather than throwing it away. Use '-argv' to pass arguments to the executable +created. + +=item -regex <rename_regex> + +Gives a rule B<rename_regex> - which is a legal perl regular expression - to +create executable file names. + +=item -verbose <verbose_level> + +Show exactly what steps perlcc is taking to compile your code. You can change +the verbosity level B<verbose_level> much in the same way that the '-D' switch +changes perl's debugging level, by giving either a number which is the sum of +bits you want or a list of letters representing what you wish to see. Here are +the verbosity levels so far : + + Bit 1(g): Code Generation Errors to STDERR + Bit 2(a): Compilation Errors to STDERR + Bit 4(t): Descriptive text to STDERR + Bit 8(f): Code Generation Errors to file (B<-log> flag needed) + Bit 16(c): Compilation Errors to file (B<-log> flag needed) + Bit 32(d): Descriptive text to file (B<-log> flag needed) + +If the B<-log> tag is given, the default verbose level is 63 (ie: mirroring +all of perlcc's output to both the screen and to a log file). If no B<-log> +tag is given, then the default verbose level is 7 (ie: outputting all of +perlcc's output to STDERR). + +NOTE: Because of buffering concerns, you CANNOT shadow the output of '-run' to +both a file, and to the screen! Suggestions are welcome on how to overcome this +difficulty, but for now it simply does not work properly, and hence will only go +to the screen. + +=item -log <logname> + +Opens, for append, a logfile to save some or all of the text for a given +compile command. No rewrite version is available, so this needs to be done +manually. + +=item -argv <arguments> + +In combination with '-run' or '-e', tells perlcc to run the resulting +executable with the string B<arguments> as @ARGV. + +=item -sav + +Tells perl to save the intermediate C code. Usually, this C code is the name +of the perl code, plus '.c'; 'perlcode.p' gets generated in 'perlcode.p.c', +for example. If used with the '-e' operator, you need to tell perlcc where to +save resulting executables. + +=item -gen + +Tells perlcc to only create the intermediate C code, and not compile the +results. Does an implicit B<-sav>, saving the C code rather than deleting it. + +=item -run + +Immediately run the perl code that has been generated. NOTE: IF YOU GIVE THE +B<-run> FLAG TO B<perlcc>, THEN THE REST OF @ARGV WILL BE INTERPRETED AS +ARGUMENTS TO THE PROGRAM THAT YOU ARE COMPILING. + +=item -prog + +Indicate that the programs at the command line are programs, and should be +compiled as such. B<perlcc> will automatically determine files to be +programs if they have B<.p>, B<.pl>, B<.bat> extensions. + +=item -mod + +Indicate that the programs at the command line are modules, and should be +compiled as such. B<perlcc> will automatically determine files to be +modules if they have the extension B<.pm>. + +=back + +=head1 ENVIRONMENT + +Most of the work of B<perlcc> is done at the command line. However, you can +change the heuristic which determines what is a module and what is a program. +As indicated above, B<perlcc> assumes that the extensions: + +.p$, .pl$, and .bat$ + +indicate a perl program, and: + +.pm$ + +indicate a library, for the purposes of creating executables. And furthermore, +by default, these extensions will be replaced (and dropped ) in the process of +creating an executable. + +To change the extensions which are programs, and which are modules, set the +environmental variables: + +PERL_SCRIPT_EXT +PERL_MODULE_EXT + +These two environmental variables take colon-separated, legal perl regular +expressions, and are used by perlcc to decide which objects are which. +For example: + +setenv PERL_SCRIPT_EXT '.prl$:.perl$' +prompt% perlcc sample.perl + +will compile the script 'sample.perl' into the executable 'sample', and + +setenv PERL_MODULE_EXT '.perlmod$:.perlmodule$' + +prompt% perlcc sample.perlmod + +will compile the module 'sample.perlmod' into the shared object +'sample.so' + +NOTE: the '.' in the regular expressions for PERL_SCRIPT_EXT and PERL_MODULE_EXT +is a literal '.', and not a wild-card. To get a true wild-card, you need to +backslash the '.'; as in: + +setenv PERL_SCRIPT_EXT '\.\.\.\.\.' + +which would have the effect of compiling ANYTHING (except what is in +PERL_MODULE_EXT) into an executable with 5 less characters in its name. + +=head1 FILES + +'perlcc' uses a temporary file when you use the B<-e> option to evaluate +text and compile it. This temporary file is 'perlc$$.p'. The temporary C code is +perlc$$.p.c, and the temporary executable is perlc$$. + +When you use '-run' and don't save your executable, the temporary executable is +perlc$$ + +=head1 BUGS + +perlcc currently cannot compile shared objects on Win32. This should be fixed +by perl5.005. + +=cut + +!NO!SUBS! + +close OUT or die "Can't close $file: $!"; +chmod 0755, $file or die "Can't reset permissions for $file: $!\n"; +exec("$Config{'eunicefix'} $file") if $Config{'eunicefix'} ne ':'; |
