h2xs 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.
The module_name 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.
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
-L/another/library/path in the extra-libraries argument.
OPTIONS
-A Omit all autoload facilities. This is the same as -c
but also removes the `use AutoLoader' statement from
the .pm file.
-C Omits creation of the Changes file, and adds a HISTORY
section to the POD template.
-F Additional flags to specify to C preprocessor when
scanning header for function declarations. Should not
be used without -x.
-Mregularexpression
selects functions/macros to process.
-O Allows a pre-existing extension directory to be
overwritten.
-P Omit the autogenerated stub POD section.
-X Omit the XS portion. Used to generate templates for a
module which is not XS-based. `-c' and `-f' are
implicitly enabled.
-a 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.
These methods all apply to the Ptr type for the
structure; additionally two methods are constructed for
the structure type itself, `_to_ptr' which returns a
Ptr type pointing to the same structure, and a `new'
method to construct and return a new structure,
initialised to zeroes.
-c Omit `constant()' from the .xs file and corresponding
specialised `AUTOLOAD' from the .pm file.
-d Turn on debugging messages.
-f Allows an extension to be created for a header even if
that header is not found in standard include
directories.
-h Print the usage, help and version for this h2xs and
exit.
-k For function arguments declared as `const', omit the
const attribute in the generated XS code.
-mExperimental: for each variable declared in the header
file(s), declare a perl variable of the same name
magically tied to the C variable.
-nmodule_name
Specifies a name to be used for the extension, e.g.,
-n RPC::DCE
-oregularexpression
Use "opaque" data type for the C types matched by the
regular expression, even if these types are
`typedef'-equivalent to types from typemaps. Should
not be used without -x.
This may be useful since, say, types which are
`typedef'-equivalent to integers may represent OS-
related handles, and one may want to work with these
handles in OO-way, as in `$handle->do_something()'.
Use `-o .' if you want to handle all the `typedef'ed
types as opaque types.
The type-to-match is whitewashed (except for commas,
which have no whitespace before them, and multiple `*'
which have no whitespace between them).
-pprefix
Specify a prefix which should be removed from the Perl
function names, e.g., -p sec_rgy_ This sets up the XS
PREFIX keyword and removes the prefix from functions
that are autoloaded via the `constant()' mechanism.
-ssub1,sub2
Create a perl subroutine for the specified macros
rather than autoload with the constant() subroutine.
These macros are assumed to have a return type of char*, e.g., -s sec_rgy_wildcard_name,sec_rgy_wildcard_sid.
-vversion
Specify a version number for this extension. This
version number is added to the templates. The default
is 0.01.
-x Automatically generate XSUBs basing on function
declarations in the header file. The package `C::Scan'
should be installed. If this option is specified, the
name of the header file may look like `NAME1,NAME2'. In
this case NAME1 is used instead of the specified
string, but XSUBs are emitted only for the declarations
included from file NAME2.
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 `long
long'), pointers to functions, or arrays. See also the
section on the LIMITATIONS of -x entry elsewhere in
this document.
EXAMPLES
# Default behavior, extension is Rusers
h2xs rpcsvc/rusers
# Same, but extension is RUSERS
h2xs -n RUSERS rpcsvc/rusers
# Extension is rpcsvc::rusers. Still finds <rpcsvc/rusers.h>
h2xs rpcsvc::rusers
# Extension is ONC::RPC. Still finds <rpcsvc/rusers.h>
h2xs -n ONC::RPC rpcsvc/rusers
# Without constant() or AUTOLOAD
h2xs -c rpcsvc/rusers
# Creates templates for an extension named RPC
h2xs -cfn RPC
# Extension is ONC::RPC.
h2xs -cfn ONC::RPC
# Makefile.PL will look for library -lrpc in
# additional directory /opt/net/lib
h2xs rpcsvc/rusers -L/opt/net/lib -lrpc
# Extension is DCE::rgynbase
# prefix "sec_rgy_" is dropped from perl function names
h2xs -n DCE::rgynbase -p sec_rgy_ dce/rgynbase
# Extension is DCE::rgynbase
# prefix "sec_rgy_" is dropped from perl function names
# subroutines are created for sec_rgy_wildcard_name and sec_rgy_wildcard_sid
h2xs -n DCE::rgynbase -p sec_rgy_ \
-s sec_rgy_wildcard_name,sec_rgy_wildcard_sid dce/rgynbase
# Make XS without defines in perl.h, but with function declarations
# visible from perl.h. Name of the extension is perl1.
# When scanning perl.h, define -DEXT=extern -DdEXT= -DINIT(x)=
# Extra backslashes below because the string is passed to shell.
# Note that a directory with perl header files would
# be added automatically to include path.
h2xs -xAn perl1 -F "-DEXT=extern -DdEXT= -DINIT\(x\)=" perl.h
# Same with function declaration in proto.h as visible from perl.h.
h2xs -xAn perl2 perl.h,proto.h
# Same but select only functions which match /^av_/
h2xs -M '^av_' -xAn perl2 perl.h,proto.h
# Same but treat SV* etc as "opaque" types
h2xs -o '^[S]V \*$' -M '^av_' -xAn perl2 perl.h,proto.h
ENVIRONMENT
No environment variables are used.

DIAGNOSTICS
The usual warnings if it cannot read or write the files
involved.
LIMITATIONS of -x
h2xs would not distinguish whether an argument to a C
function which is of the form, say, `int *', is an input,
output, or input/output parameter. In particular, argument
declarations of the form
int
foo(n)
int *n
should be better rewritten as
int
foo(n)
int &n
if `n' is an input parameter.
Additionally, h2xs has no facilities to intuit that a
function
int
foo(addr,l)
char *addr
int l
takes a pair of address and length of data at this address,
so it is better to rewrite this function as
int
foo(sv)
SV *addr
PREINIT:
STRLEN len;
char *s;
CODE:
s = SvPV(sv,len);
RETVAL = foo(s, len);
OUTPUT:
RETVAL
or alternately
static int
my_foo(SV *sv)
{
STRLEN len;
char *s = SvPV(sv,len);
return foo(s, len);
}
MODULE = foo PACKAGE = foo PREFIX = my_
int
foo(sv)
SV *sv
See the perlxs manpage and the perlxstut manpage for
additional details.
