47xsubpp - compiler to convert Perl XS code into C code

6b09c160 51B<xsubpp> [B<-v>] [B<-except>] [B<-s pattern>] [B<-prototypes>] [B<-noversioncheck>] [B<-nolinenumbers>] [B<-nooptimize>] [B<-typemap typemap>] [B<-output filename>]... file.xs

53=head1 DESCRIPTION
54
b26a54d0
GS
55This compiler is typically run by the makefiles created by L<ExtUtils::MakeMaker>.
56
75f92628
AD
57I<xsubpp> will compile XS code into C code by embedding the constructs
58necessary to let C functions manipulate Perl values and creates the glue
59necessary to let Perl access those functions. The compiler uses typemaps to
60determine how to map C function parameters and variables to Perl values.
61
62The compiler will search for typemap files called I<typemap>. It will use
63the following search path to find default typemaps, with the rightmost
64typemap taking precedence.
65
66 ../../../typemap:../../typemap:../typemap:typemap
67
6b09c160
YST
68It will also use a default typemap installed as C<ExtUtils::typemap>.

71
b26a54d0
GS
72Note that the C<XSOPT> MakeMaker option may be used to add these options to
73any makefiles generated by MakeMaker.

NIS
77=item B<-hiertype>
78
863b2ca0 79Retains '::' in type names so that C++ hierarchical types can be mapped.
0ab125c1 80
75f92628
AD
81=item B<-except>
82
83Adds exception handling stubs to the C code.
84
85=item B<-typemap typemap>
86
87Indicates that a user-supplied typemap should take precedence over the
88default typemaps. This option may be used multiple times, with the last
89typemap having the highest precedence.
90

91=item B<-output filename>
92
93Specifies the name of the output file to generate. If no file is
94specified, output will be written to standard output.
95
8e07c86e
AD
96=item B<-v>
97
98Prints the I<xsubpp> version number to standard output, then exits.
99
8fc38fda 100=item B<-prototypes>
382b8d97 101
8fc38fda 102By default I<xsubpp> will not automatically generate prototype code for
103all xsubs. This flag will enable prototypes.
104
105=item B<-noversioncheck>
106
107Disables the run time test that determines if the object file (derived
108from the C<.xs> file) and the C<.pm> files have the same version
109number.
382b8d97 110

JT
111=item B<-nolinenumbers>
112
113Prevents the inclusion of `#line' directives in the output.
114
b26a54d0
GS
115=item B<-nooptimize>
116
117Disables certain optimizations. The only optimization that is currently
118affected is the use of I<target>s by the output C code (see L<perlguts>).
119This may significantly slow down the generated code, but this is the way
120B<xsubpp> of 5.005 and earlier operated.
121
11416672
GS
122=item B<-noinout>
123
124Disable recognition of C<IN>, C<OUT_LIST> and C<INOUT_LIST> declarations.
125
126=item B<-noargtypes>
127
128Disable recognition of ANSI-like descriptions of function signature.

132Currently doesn't do anything at all. This flag has been a no-op for
133many versions of perl, at least as far back as perl5.003_07. It's
134allowed here for backwards compatibility.
