.IX Title "H2XS 1"
.TH H2XS 1 "2002-08-28" "perl v5.8.0" "Perl Programmers Reference Guide"
.SH "NAME"
h2xs \- convert .h C header files to Perl extensions
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
\&\fBh2xs\fR [\fB\s-1OPTIONS\s0\fR ...] [headerfile ... [extra_libraries]]
.PP
\&\fBh2xs\fR \fB\-h\fR|\fB\-?\fR|\fB\-\-help\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fIh2xs\fR builds a Perl extension from C header files.  The extension
will include functions which can be used to retrieve the value of any
#define statement which was in the C header files.
.PP
The \fImodule_name\fR will be used for the name of the extension.  If
module_name is not supplied then the name of the first header file
will be used, with the first character capitalized.
.PP
If the extension might need extra libraries, they should be included
here.  The extension Makefile.PL will take care of checking whether
the libraries actually exist and how they should be loaded.  The extra
libraries should be specified in the form \-lm \-lposix, etc, just as on
the cc command line.  By default, the Makefile.PL will search through
the library path determined by Configure.  That path can be augmented
by including arguments of the form \fB\-L/another/library/path\fR in the
extra-libraries argument.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
.IP "\fB\-A\fR, \fB\-\-omit\-autoload\fR" 5
.IX Item "-A, --omit-autoload"
Omit all autoload facilities.  This is the same as \fB\-c\fR but also
removes the \f(CW\*(C`use\ AutoLoader\*(C'\fR statement from the .pm file.
.IP "\fB\-B\fR, \fB\-\-beta\-version\fR" 5
.IX Item "-B, --beta-version"
Use an alpha/beta style version number.  Causes version number to
be \*(L"0.00_01\*(R" unless \fB\-v\fR is specified.
.IP "\fB\-C\fR, \fB\-\-omit\-changes\fR" 5
.IX Item "-C, --omit-changes"
Omits creation of the \fIChanges\fR file, and adds a \s-1HISTORY\s0 section to
the \s-1POD\s0 template.
.IP "\fB\-F\fR, \fB\-\-cpp\-flags\fR=\fIaddflags\fR" 5
.IX Item "-F, --cpp-flags=addflags"
Additional flags to specify to C preprocessor when scanning header for
function declarations.  Writes these options in the generated \fIMakefile.PL\fR
too.
.IP "\fB\-M\fR, \fB\-\-func\-mask\fR=\fIregular expression\fR" 5
.IX Item "-M, --func-mask=regular expression"
selects functions/macros to process.
.IP "\fB\-O\fR, \fB\-\-overwrite\-ok\fR" 5
.IX Item "-O, --overwrite-ok"
Allows a pre-existing extension directory to be overwritten.
.IP "\fB\-P\fR, \fB\-\-omit\-pod\fR" 5
.IX Item "-P, --omit-pod"
Omit the autogenerated stub \s-1POD\s0 section. 
.IP "\fB\-X\fR, \fB\-\-omit\-XS\fR" 5
.IX Item "-X, --omit-XS"
Omit the \s-1XS\s0 portion.  Used to generate templates for a module which is not
XS\-based.  \f(CW\*(C`\-c\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`\-f\*(C'\fR are implicitly enabled.
.IP "\fB\-a\fR, \fB\-\-gen\-accessors\fR" 5
.IX Item "-a, --gen-accessors"
Generate an accessor method for each element of structs and unions. The
generated methods are named after the element name; will return the current
value of the element if called without additional arguments; and will set
the element to the supplied value (and return the new value) if called with
an additional argument. Embedded structures and unions are returned as a
pointer rather than the complete structure, to facilitate chained calls.
.Sp
These methods all apply to the Ptr type for the structure; additionally
two methods are constructed for the structure type itself, \f(CW\*(C`_to_ptr\*(C'\fR
which returns a Ptr type pointing to the same structure, and a \f(CW\*(C`new\*(C'\fR
method to construct and return a new structure, initialised to zeroes.
.IP "\fB\-b\fR, \fB\-\-compat\-version\fR=\fIversion\fR" 5
.IX Item "-b, --compat-version=version"
Generates a .pm file which is backwards compatible with the specified
perl version.
.Sp
For versions < 5.6.0, the changes are.
    \- no use of 'our' (uses 'use vars' instead)
    \- no 'use warnings'
.Sp
Specifying a compatibility version higher than the version of perl you
are using to run h2xs will have no effect.  If unspecified h2xs will default
to compatibility with the version of perl you are using to run h2xs.
.IP "\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-omit\-constant\fR" 5
.IX Item "-c, --omit-constant"
Omit \f(CW\*(C`constant()\*(C'\fR from the .xs file and corresponding specialised
\&\f(CW\*(C`AUTOLOAD\*(C'\fR from the .pm file.
.IP "\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-debugging\fR" 5
.IX Item "-d, --debugging"
Turn on debugging messages.
.IP "\fB\-f\fR, \fB\-\-force\fR" 5
.IX Item "-f, --force"
Allows an extension to be created for a header even if that header is
not found in standard include directories.
.IP "\fB\-g\fR, \fB\-\-global\fR" 5
.IX Item "-g, --global"
Include code for safely storing static data in the .xs file. 
Extensions that do no make use of static data can ignore this option.
.IP "\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-?\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR" 5
.IX Item "-h, -?, --help"
Print the usage, help and version for this h2xs and exit.
.IP "\fB\-k\fR, \fB\-\-omit\-const\-func\fR" 5
.IX Item "-k, --omit-const-func"
For function arguments declared as \f(CW\*(C`const\*(C'\fR, omit the const attribute in the
generated \s-1XS\s0 code.
.IP "\fB\-m\fR, \fB\-\-gen\-tied\-var\fR" 5
.IX Item "-m, --gen-tied-var"
\&\fBExperimental\fR: for each variable declared in the header file(s), declare
a perl variable of the same name magically tied to the C variable.
.IP "\fB\-n\fR, \fB\-\-name\fR=\fImodule_name\fR" 5
.IX Item "-n, --name=module_name"
Specifies a name to be used for the extension, e.g., \-n\ \s-1RPC::DCE\s0
.IP "\fB\-o\fR, \fB\-\-opaque\-re\fR=\fIregular expression\fR" 5
.IX Item "-o, --opaque-re=regular expression"
Use \*(L"opaque\*(R" data type for the C types matched by the regular
expression, even if these types are \f(CW\*(C`typedef\*(C'\fR\-equivalent to types
from typemaps.  Should not be used without \fB\-x\fR.
.Sp
This may be useful since, say, types which are \f(CW\*(C`typedef\*(C'\fR\-equivalent
to integers may represent OS-related handles, and one may want to work
with these handles in OO\-way, as in \f(CW\*(C`$handle\->do_something()\*(C'\fR.
Use \f(CW\*(C`\-o .\*(C'\fR if you want to handle all the \f(CW\*(C`typedef\*(C'\fRed types as opaque
types.
.Sp
The type-to-match is whitewashed (except for commas, which have no
whitespace before them, and multiple \f(CW\*(C`*\*(C'\fR which have no whitespace
between them).
.IP "\fB\-p\fR, \fB\-\-remove\-prefix\fR=\fIprefix\fR" 5
.IX Item "-p, --remove-prefix=prefix"
Specify a prefix which should be removed from the Perl function names,
e.g., \-p\ sec_rgy_ This sets up the \s-1XS\s0 \fB\s-1PREFIX\s0\fR keyword and removes
the prefix from functions that are autoloaded via the \f(CW\*(C`constant()\*(C'\fR
mechanism.
.IP "\fB\-s\fR, \fB\-\-const\-subs\fR=\fIsub1,sub2\fR" 5
.IX Item "-s, --const-subs=sub1,sub2"
Create a perl subroutine for the specified macros rather than autoload
with the \fIconstant()\fR subroutine.  These macros are assumed to have a
return type of \fBchar *\fR, e.g.,
\&\-s\ sec_rgy_wildcard_name,sec_rgy_wildcard_sid.
.IP "\fB\-t\fR, \fB\-\-default\-type\fR=\fItype\fR" 5
.IX Item "-t, --default-type=type"
Specify the internal type that the \fIconstant()\fR mechanism uses for macros.
The default is \s-1IV\s0 (signed integer).  Currently all macros found during the
header scanning process will be assumed to have this type.  Future versions
of \f(CW\*(C`h2xs\*(C'\fR may gain the ability to make educated guesses.
.IP "\fB\-\-use\-new\-tests\fR" 5
.IX Item "--use-new-tests"
When \fB\-\-compat\-version\fR (\fB\-b\fR) is present the generated tests will use
\&\f(CW\*(C`Test::More\*(C'\fR rather than \f(CW\*(C`Test\*(C'\fR which is the default for versions before
5.7.2 .   \f(CW\*(C`Test::More\*(C'\fR will be added to \s-1PREREQ_PM\s0 in the generated
\&\f(CW\*(C`Makefile.PL\*(C'\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-use\-old\-tests\fR" 5
.IX Item "--use-old-tests"
Will force the generation of test code that uses the older \f(CW\*(C`Test\*(C'\fR module.
.IP "\fB\-\-skip\-exporter\fR" 5
.IX Item "--skip-exporter"
Do not use \f(CW\*(C`Exporter\*(C'\fR and/or export any symbol.
.IP "\fB\-\-skip\-ppport\fR" 5
.IX Item "--skip-ppport"
Do not use \f(CW\*(C`Devel::PPPort\*(C'\fR: no portability to older version.
.IP "\fB\-\-skip\-autoloader\fR" 5
.IX Item "--skip-autoloader"
Do not use the module \f(CW\*(C`AutoLoader\*(C'\fR; but keep the \fIconstant()\fR function
and \f(CW\*(C`sub AUTOLOAD\*(C'\fR for constants.
.IP "\fB\-\-skip\-strict\fR" 5
.IX Item "--skip-strict"
Do not use the pragma \f(CW\*(C`strict\*(C'\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-skip\-warnings\fR" 5
.IX Item "--skip-warnings"
Do not use the pragma \f(CW\*(C`warnings\*(C'\fR.
.IP "\fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR=\fIversion\fR" 5
.IX Item "-v, --version=version"
Specify a version number for this extension.  This version number is added
to the templates.  The default is 0.01, or 0.00_01 if \f(CW\*(C`\-B\*(C'\fR is specified.
The version specified should be numeric.
.IP "\fB\-x\fR, \fB\-\-autogen\-xsubs\fR" 5
.IX Item "-x, --autogen-xsubs"
Automatically generate XSUBs basing on function declarations in the
header file.  The package \f(CW\*(C`C::Scan\*(C'\fR should be installed. If this
option is specified, the name of the header file may look like
\&\f(CW\*(C`NAME1,NAME2\*(C'\fR. In this case \s-1NAME1\s0 is used instead of the specified
string, but XSUBs are emitted only for the declarations included from
file \s-1NAME2\s0.
.Sp
Note that some types of arguments/return\-values for functions may
result in XSUB\-declarations/typemap\-entries which need
hand\-editing. Such may be objects which cannot be converted from/to a
pointer (like \f(CW\*(C`long long\*(C'\fR), pointers to functions, or arrays.  See
also the section on "\s-1LIMITATIONS\s0 of \fB\-x\fR".

Suppose that you have some C files implementing some functionality,
and the corresponding header files.  How to create an extension which
makes this functionality accessable in Perl?  The example below
assumes that the header files are \fIinterface_simple.h\fR and
\&\fIinterface_hairy.h\fR, and you want the perl module be named as
\&\f(CW\*(C`Ext::Ension\*(C'\fR.  If you need some preprocessor directives and/or
linking with external libraries, see the flags \f(CW\*(C`\-F\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`\-L\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`\-l\*(C'\fR
in \*(L"\s-1OPTIONS\s0\*(R".
.IP "Find the directory name" 4
.IX Item "Find the directory name"
Start with a dummy run of h2xs:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&  h2xs -Afn Ext::Ension
.Ve
.Sp
The only purpose of this step is to create the needed directories, and
let you know the names of these directories.  From the output you can
see that the directory for the extension is \fIExt/Ension\fR.
.IP "Copy C files" 4
.IX Item "Copy C files"
Copy your header files and C files to this directory \fIExt/Ension\fR.
.IP "Create the extension" 4

Run h2xs, overwriting older autogenerated files:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&  h2xs -Oxan Ext::Ension interface_simple.h interface_hairy.h
.Ve
.Sp
h2xs looks for header files \fIafter\fR changing to the extension
directory, so it will find your header files \s-1OK\s0.
.IP "Archive and test" 4

.IP "Hints" 4
.IX Item "Hints"
It is important to do \f(CW\*(C`make dist\*(C'\fR as early as possible.  This way you
can easily \fImerge\fR\|(1) your changes to autogenerated files if you decide
to edit your \f(CW\*(C`.h\*(C'\fR files and rerun h2xs.
.Sp
Do not forget to edit the documentation in the generated \fI.pm\fR file.
.Sp
Consider the autogenerated files as skeletons only, you may invent
better interfaces than what h2xs could guess.

Consider this section as a guideline only, some other options of h2xs
may better suit your needs.
