FUNCTIONS

9       I've taken out some of the general stuff and put it here.  Now I can
10       write some tests!
11
12       Configure_win32( $command[, $win32_maker[, @args]] )
13           "Configure_win32()" alters the settings of the makefile for
14           MSWin32.
15
16           $command is in the form of './Configure -des -Dusedevel ...'
17
18           $win32_maker should either be "nmake" or "dmake", the default is
19           "nmake".
20
21           @args is a list of "option=value" pairs that will (eventually) be
22           passed to Config.pm.
23
24           PLEASE read README.win32 and study the comments in the makefile.
25
26           It supports these options:
27
28           ·   -Duseperlio
29
30               set USE_PERLIO = define (default) [should be depricated]
31
32           ·   -Dusethreads
33
34               set USE_ITHREADS = define (also sets USE_MULTI and USE_IMP_SYS)
35
36           ·   -Duseithreads
37
38               set USE_ITHREADS = define (also sets USE_MULTI and USE_IMP_SYS)
39
40           ·   -Dusemultiplicity
41
42               sets USE_MULTI = define (also sets USE_ITHREADS and
43               USE_IMP_SYS)
44
45           ·   -Duseimpsys
46
47               sets USE_IMP_SYS = define (also sets USE_ITHREADS and
48               USE_MULTI)
49
50           ·   -Dusemymalloc
51
52               set PERL_MALLOC = define
53
54           ·   -Duselargefiles
55
56               set USE_LARGE_FILES = define
57
58           ·   -Dbccold
59
60               set BCCOLD = define (this is for bcc32 <= 5.4)
61
62           ·   -Dgcc_v3_2
63
64               set USE_GCC_V3_2 = define (this is for gcc >= 3.2)
65
66           ·   -DDEBUGGING
67
68               sets CFG = Debug
69
70           ·   -DINST_DRV=...
71
72               sets INST_DRV to a new value (default is "c:")
73
74           ·   -DINST_TOP=...
75
76               sets INST_DRV to a new value (default is "$(INST_DRV)\perl"),
77               this is where perl will be installed when "[nd]make install" is
78               run.
79
80           ·   -DINST_VER=...
81
82               sets INST_VER to a new value (default is forced not set), this
83               is also used as part of the installation path to get a more
84               unixy installation.  Without "INST_VER" and "INST_ARCH" you get
85               an ActiveState like installation.
86
87           ·   -DINST_ARCH=...
88
89               sets INST_ARCH to a new value (default is forced not set), this
90               is also used as part of the installation path to get a more
91               unixy  installation.  Without "INST_VER" and "INST_ARCH" you
92               get an ActiveState like installation.
93
94           ·   -DCCHOME=...
95
96               Set the base directory for the C compiler.  $(CCHOME)\bin still
97               needs to be in the path!
98
99           ·   -DIS_WIN95
100
101               sets IS_WIN95 to 'define' to indicate this is Win9[58]
102
103           ·   -DCRYPT_SRC=...
104
105               The file to use as source for des_fcrypt()
106
107           ·   -DCRYPT_LIB=...
108
109               The library to use for des_fcrypt()
110
111           ·   -Dcf_email=...
112
113               Set the cf_email option (Config.pm)
114
115           ·   -Accflags=...
116
117               Adds the option to BUILDOPT. This is implemented differently
118               for nmake and dmake.  Returns the name of the outputfile.
119
120       set_vms_rooted_logical( $logical, $dir )
121           This will set a VMS rooted logical like:
122
123               define/translation=concealed $logical $dir
124
125       get_cfg_filename( )
126           "get_cfg_filename()" tries to find a cfg file and returns it.
127
128       grepccmsg( $cc, $logfile, $verbose )
129           This is a port of Jarkko Hietaniemi's grepccerr script.
130
131       get_local_patches( $ddir )
132           "get_local_patches()" reads patchlevel.h to scan for the locally
133           applied patches array.
134
135       set_local_patch( $ddir, @descr )
136           Copy the code from patchlevel.h. Older (pre 5.8.1) perls do not
137           have it and it doesn't work on MSWin32.
138
139       get_config( $filename )
140           Read and parse the configuration from file, or return the default
141           config.
142
143       get_patch( [$ddir] )
144           Try to find the patchlevel, look for .patch or try to get it from
145           patchlevel.h as a fallback.
146
147       version_from_patchlevel_h( $ddir )
148           "version_from_patchlevel_h()" returns a "dotted" version as derived
149           from the patchlevel.h file in the distribution.
150
151       get_ncpu( $osname )
152           "get_ncpu()" returns the number of available
153           (online/active/enabled) CPUs.
154
155           It does this by using some operating system specific trick (usually
156           by running some external command and parsing the output).
157
158           If it cannot recognize your operating system an empty string is
159           returned.  If it can recognize it but the external command failed,
160           "? cpus" is returned.
161
162           In the first case (where we really have no idea how to proceed),
163           also a warning ("get_ncpu: unknown operating system") is sent to
164           STDERR.
165
166       WARNINGS
167           If you get the warning "get_ncpu: unknown operating system", you
168           will need to help us-- how does one tell the number of available
169           CPUs in your operating system?  Sometimes there are several
170           different ways: please try to find the fastest one, and a one that
171           does not require superuser (administrator) rights.
172
173           Thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi for donating this!
174
175       get_smoked_Config( $dir, @keys )
176           "get_smoked_Config()" returns a hash (a listified hash) with the
177           specified keys. It will try to find lib/Config.pm to get those
178           values, if that cannot be found (make error?) we can try config.sh
179           which is used to build lib/Config.pm.  If config.sh is not there
180           (./Configure error?) we try to get some fallback information from
181           "POSIX::uname()" and patchlevel.h.
182
183       parse_report_Config( $report )
184           "parse_report_Config()" returns a list attributes from a smoke
185           report.
186
187               my( $version, $plevel, $os, $osvers, $archname, $summary ) =
188                   parse_report_Config( $rpt );
189
190       get_regen_headers( $ddir )
191           "get_regen_headers()" looks in $ddir to find either
192           regen_headers.pl or regen.pl (change 18851).
193
194           Returns undef if not found or a string like "$^X
195           "$regen_headers_pl""
196
197       run_regen_headers( $ddir, $verbose );
198           "run_regen_headers()" gets its executable from
199           "get_regen_headers()" and opens a pipe from it. warn()s on error.
200
201       whereis( $prog )
202           Try to find an executable instance of $prog in $ENV{PATH}.
203
204           Rreturns a full file-path (with extension) to it.
205
206       vms_whereis( $prog )
207           First look in the SYMBOLS to see if $prog is there.  Next look in
208           the KFE-table "INSTALL LIST" if it is there.  As a last resort we
209           can scan "DCL$PATH" like we do on *nix/Win32
210
211       clean_filename( $fname )
212           "clean_filename()" basically returns a vmsify() type of filename
213           for VMS, and returns an upcase filename for case-ignorant
214           filesystems.
215
216       calc_timeout( $killtime[, $from] )
217           "calc_timeout()" calculates the timeout in seconds.  $killtime can
218           be one of two formats:
219
220           +hh:mm  This format represents a duration and is the easy format as
221                   we only need to translate that to seconds.
222
223           hh:mm   This format represents a clock time (localtime).  Calculate
224                   minutes from midnight for both $killtime and
225                   "localtime($from)", and get the difference. If $from is
226                   omitted, "time()" is used.
227
228                   If $killtime is the actual time, the timeout will be 24
229                   hours!
230
231       time_in_hhmm( $diff )
232           Create a string telling elapsed time in days, hours, minutes,
233           seconds from the number of seconds.
234
235       do_pod2man( %pod2usage_options )
236           If Pod::Usage is there then call its "pod2usage()".  In the other
237           case, print the general message passed with the "myusage" key.
238
239       skip_config( $config )
240           Returns true if this config should be skipped.  $config should be a
241           Test::Smoke::BuildCFG::Config object.
242
243       skip_filter( $line )
244           "skip_filter()" returns true if the filter rules apply to $line.
