Greg Ward 612eb9f58f Fixed a grab-bag of typos spotted by Rob Hooft. 2000-07-27 02:13:20 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 65d6edb478 fix inconsistent use of tabs and spaces 2000-07-07 20:45:21 +00:00
Greg Ward bfc79d644a Lyle Johnson: added 'build_temp' parameter to 'link_shared_{lib,object}()'
methods (but not 'link_executable()', hmmm).  Currently only used by
BCPPCompiler; it's a dummy parameter for UnixCCompiler and MSVCCompiler.

Also added 'bcpp' to compiler table used by 'new_compiler()'.

Greg Ward e5c62bf6e8 Introduced some bureaucracy for setting and tracking the executables
that a particular compiler system depends on.  This consists of the
'set_executables()' and 'set_executable()' methods, and a few lines in
the constructor that expect implementation classes to provide an
'executables' attribute, which we use to initialize several instance
attributes.  The default implementation is somewhat biased in favour of
a Unix/DOS "command-line" view of the world, but it shouldn't be too
hard to override this for operating systems with a more sophisticated
way of representing programs-to-execute.

Greg Ward c3a43b4f9b Docstring reformatting/tweaking binge.
Fixed a few comments.

Greg Ward 9aa668b03a Changed 'object_filenames()' to raise exception instead of silently carrying
on if it sees a filename with unknown extension.

Greg Ward 2ff7887270 Stylistic/formatting changes to Rene Liebscher's '--help-xxx' patch. 2000-06-24 00:23:20 +00:00
Greg Ward 3ff3b039ac Added 'preprocess()' method to CCompiler interface, and implemented
it in UnixCCompiler.  Still needs to be implemented in MSVCCompiler (and
whatever other compiler classes are lurking out there, waiting to be
checked in).

Greg Ward 9d17a7ad6d Patch from Rene Liebscher: this adds "--help-foo" options to list the
values that "--foo" can take for various commands: eg. what formats for
"sdist" and "bdist", what compilers for "build_ext" and "build_clib".

I have *not* reviewed this patch; I'm checking it in as-is because it also
fixes a paper-bag-over-head bug in bdist.py, and because I won't have
time to review it properly for several days: so someone else can
test it for me, instead!

Greg Ward 39804cbc60 Removed exceptions -- now in errors.py to avoid expensive import of ccompiler. 2000-05-30 02:02:48 +00:00
Greg Ward d151711e66 Changed to catch compile/link failures and raise CompileError, LibError,
or LinkError (exception classes defined in ccompiler.py).
2000-05-30 01:56:44 +00:00
Greg Ward f7edea749d Lyle Johnson: added stubs for the four miscellaneous methods that must be
implemented by subclasses, since they are needed by 'gen_lib_options()'.
2000-05-20 13:31:32 +00:00
Greg Ward 5299b6afc5 Added support for the 'export_symbols' parameter to 'link_shared_object()'
and 'link_shared_lib()'.  In MSVCCompiler, this is meaningful: it adds
/EXPORT: options to the linker command line.  In UnixCCompiler, it
is ignored.
2000-05-20 13:23:21 +00:00
Greg Ward f10f95d6bb Added 'runtime_library_dirs' parameter to 'link_*()' methods.
Split '_fix_link_args()' up into '_fix_object_args()' (for use of
  'create_static_lib() and link methods) and '_fix_lib_args()' (for the
  link methods only).
2000-03-26 21:37:09 +00:00
Greg Ward d03f88a38f Changed to pay attention to the 'runtime_library_dirs' list (= 'rpath'
option in the 'build_ext' command):
  * in ccompiler.py: 'gen_lib_options()' now takes 'runtime_library_dirs'
    parameter
  * in unixccompiler.py and msvccompiler.py: now pass
    'self.runtime_library_dirs' to 'gen_lib_options()', and define
    'runtime_library_dir_option()' (although in msvccompiler.py it
    blows up with a DistutilsPlatformError right now!)
2000-03-18 15:19:51 +00:00
Greg Ward 036c805958 Renamed 'link_static_lib() to 'create_static_lib()'. 2000-03-10 01:48:32 +00:00
Greg Ward 32c4a8a0ee Serious overhaul of the C compiler interface and the two classes that
implement it (so far):
  * moved filename generation methods into CCompiler base class,
    driven by data supplied by implementation classes
  * moved a bunch of common code from UnixCCompiler to convenience
    methods in CCompiler
  * overhauled MSVCCompiler's compile/link methods to look and act
    as much as possible like UnixCCompiler's, in order to regularize
    both interface and behaviour (especially by using those new
    convenience methods)
2000-03-06 03:40:29 +00:00
Greg Ward 3ce77fd05e Changed '__rcsid__' to '__revision__'. 2000-03-02 01:49:45 +00:00
Greg Ward 013f0c8636 Added 'mkpath()' method: convenience wrapper around 'util.mkpath()' that adds
the compiler objects 'verbose' and 'dry_run' flags.
2000-03-01 14:43:12 +00:00
Greg Ward 3c045a5766 Added 'debug' flag to compile and link method signatures.
Doc fix: several paragraphs under 'link_static_lib()' moved to
  'link_shared_lib()', where they belong.
2000-02-09 02:16:14 +00:00
Greg Ward 5baf1c2111 Removed a bunch of irrelevant parameters from 'link_static_lib()' signature.
Added 'link_executable()' signature.
2000-01-09 22:41:02 +00:00
Greg Ward 0bdd90a7e7 Catch up with terminology change in UnixCCompiler: 'includes' -> 'include_dirs'. 1999-12-12 17:19:58 +00:00
Greg Ward 3febd60682 Slight change to the meaning of the 'libraries' list: if a library name
has a directory component, then we only search for the library in
  that one directory, ie. ignore the 'library_dirs' lists for that
  one library.
Changed calling convention to 'gen_lib_options()' again: now, it takes
  a CCompiler instance and calls methods on it instead of taking
  format strings.  Also implemented the new "library name" semantics
  using the 'find_library_file()' method in the CCompiler instance.
Added 'force' flag to CCompiler; added to constructor and 'new_compiler()'.
Added 'warn()' method.
1999-10-03 20:41:02 +00:00
Greg Ward 802d6b7b4c Added 'extra_preargs' and 'extra_postargs' parameters to most methods,
which allowed us to get rid of the 'build_info' used in some places
  (a temporary kludge to support MSVC++ "def" files).
Deleted big comment whining about that kludge.
Added 'compiler_type' class attribute.
Overhauled 'new_compiler()': now takes 'compiler' argument along with
  'plat' (both optional with sensible defaults), and looks them both up
  in the new 'default_compiler' and 'compiler_class' dictionaries to
  figure out where to get the concrete compiler class from.
Reordered arguments to 'gen_lib_options()' to match the order in
  which the arguments are generated (ie. -L before -l).
1999-09-29 12:20:55 +00:00
Greg Ward fbf8affca1 Typecheck elements of 'macros' parameter in 'gen_preprocess_options(). 1999-09-21 18:35:09 +00:00
Greg Ward 9b17cb5819 Added 'output_dir' attribute, and 'output_dir' parameter to several method
signatures, and updated some docstrings to reflect it.
Some comments added.
Added 'announce()' and 'move_file()' methods.
1999-09-13 03:07:24 +00:00
Greg Ward f7a39ecac1 os.name is "posix" or "nt" or we don't care.
Added big comment about the kludginess of passing 'build_options'
  to the link methods and how to fix it.
Added 'gen_preprocess_options()' and 'gen_lib_options()' convenience
  functions -- the two cases are very similar for Unix C Compilers and
  VC++, so I figured I might as well unify the implementations.
1999-09-08 02:29:08 +00:00
Greg Ward 26e48ea7df Patch from Perry Stoll:
- fix some broken abstract methods
  - kludge: add 'build_info' parameter to link methods
  - add 'object_name()' and 'shared_library_name()'
  - support for MSVCCompiler class on NT/Win95
1999-08-29 18:17:36 +00:00
Greg Ward e1aaaa653c Added 'verbose' and 'dry_run' flags to CCompiler constructor and
'new_compiler()' factory function.
Added 'runtime_library_dirs' list (for -R linker option) and methods
  to manipulate it.
Deleted some obsolete comments.
Added all the filename manglign methods: 'object_filenames()',
  'shared_object_filename()', 'library_filename()',
  'shared_library_filename()'.
Added 'spawn()' method (front end to the "real" spawn).

Greg Ward 3f81cf7936 The abstract base class that defines the C/C++ compiler abstraction model. 1999-07-10 02:03:53 +00:00
