Interfaccia:

kBuild è un framework per la scrittura e la gestione di semplici strutture per la costruzione di software applicabili anche a progetti complessi.

Obiettivi del framework kBuild:

  • Un comportamento identico su tutte le piattaforme supportate.
  • Flessibilità, per non creare restrizioni inutili che comportano esiti frustranti, nel tentantivo di impedire soluzioni ad-hoc.
  • I makefile si possono scrivere e mantenere in modo molto semplice.

Ci sono quattro concetti sperimentati dietro l'attuale incarnazione di kBuild:

  • Un file di configurazione per includere automaticamente un sub-albero contenente codice.
  • Maschere di configurazione come meccanismo principale per la semplificazione del makefile.
  • Strumenti e toolkit di sviluppo flessibili in ausilio alle maschere.
  • Metodo makefile non ricorsivo che utilizza sub-makefile.

kBuild non offre nessun aiuto per il controllo della configurazione del compilatore, delle librerie e degli header, non è questo il suo scopo. Se questa caratteristica è importante per i vostri progetti, forse è meglio orientarsi sugli strumenti di compilazione GNU, come ad esempio Autoconf. E' possibile usare kBuild ed Autoconf contemporaneamente, se fa piacere, ma potendo scegliere, senza dubbio è più semplice usare direttamente il pacchetto GNU.

Questo software è distribuito come pacchetto RPM.

Installazione con rpm

Questo programma si può installare usando il gestore pacchetti rpm. Vedi sotto per la stringa di installazione. I prerequisiti richiesti sono gestiti dal gestore pacchetti e, se necessario, scaricati e installati automaticamente.

kmk Quick Reference =================== This is an attempt at summarizing all directives, functions, special variables, special targets, built-in commands, external commands, and ``kmk``-expressions. Since *all* the features are included, the quickness of this reference can be disputed. ;-) Directives ---------- Here is a summary of the directives ``kmk`` recognizes: Define a multi-line, recursively-expanded variable:: define variable endef Conditionally evaluate part of the makefile:: ifdef variable ifndef variable ifeq (a,b) ifeq "a" "b" ifeq 'a' 'b' ifneq (a,b) ifneq "a" "b" ifneq 'a' 'b' if1of (set-a,set-b) [1] ifn1of (set-a,set-b) [1] if expression [1] else endif Include another makefile:: include file -include file sinclude file Include another dependency file [1]_:: includedep file Define a variable, overriding any previous definition, even one from the command line:: override variable = value override variable := value override variable += value override variable <= value [1] override variable ?= value override define variable endef Tell ``kmk`` to export all variables to child processes by default:: export Tell ``kmk`` whether or not to export a particular variable to child processes:: export variable export variable = value export variable := value export variable += value export variable <= value [1] export variable ?= value unexport variable Define a variable in the local context instead of the global one [1]_:: local variable = value local variable := value local variable += value local variable <= value local variable ?= value local define variable endef Specify a search path for files matching a ``%`` pattern:: vpath pattern path Remove all search paths previously specified for pattern:: vpath pattern Remove all search paths previously specified in any vpath directive:: vpath Automatic variables ------------------- Here is a summary of the automatic variables. +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | Variable | Description | +===========+=================================================================+ | ``$@`` | The file name of the target. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$<`` | The name of the first prerequisite. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$?`` | The names of all the prerequisites that are newer than the | | | target, with spaces between them. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$^`` | The names of all the prerequisites, duplicates omitted. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$+`` | The names of all the prerequisites, duplicates and order | | | preserved | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$*`` | The stem with which an implicit rule matches. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$|`` | The name of all the order only prerequisites. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(@D)`` | The directory part of ``$@``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(<D)`` | The directory part of ``$<``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(?D)`` | The directory part of ``$?``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(^D)`` | The directory part of ``%^``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(+D)`` | The directory part of ``$+``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(*D)`` | The directory part of ``$*``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(|D)`` | The directory part of ``$|``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(@F)`` | The file-within-directory part of ``$@``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(<F)`` | The file-within-directory part of ``$<``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(?F)`` | The file-within-directory part of ``$?``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(^F)`` | The file-within-directory part of ``$^``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(+F)`` | The file-within-directory part of ``$+``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(*F)`` | The file-within-directory part of ``$*``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | ``$(|F)`` | The file-within-directory part of ``$|``. | +-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ Special variables ----------------- All variables starting with a ``.`` is reserved by ``kmk``. The following variables are specially used or/and defined by ``kmk``: +--------------------------+--------------------------------------------------+ | Variable | Description | +==========================+==================================================+ | ``.DEFAULT_GOAL`` | The makefile default goal.

If it | | | appears without prerequisites it the suffix | | | will be cleared. | +-------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+ Commands -------- Builtin commands [1]_ all start with ``kmk_builtin_``, so in order to save space this prefix has been omitted in the table below. All commands comes in an external edition that can be used by/in the shell, these are prefixed ``kmk_``. +---------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | Command | Description | +===============+=============================================================+ | ``append`` | Append text to a file.

There are however some peculiarities because of the way GNU ``make`` choose to represent booleans in its function library, so, strings can be turned into boolean by taking any non-empty string as true. Quoting using single quotes results in hard strings, while double quotes and unquoted string results in soft strings that can be converted to number or boolean to fit the situation. Here's the operator table in decending precedence order: +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | Operator | Type | Description | +===============+========+=====================================================+ | ``defined`` | Unary | Checks if the following variable exists. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``exists`` | | Checks if the following file exists. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``target`` | | Checks if the following target exists. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``bool`` | | Casts the following value to boolean. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``num`` | | Casts the following value to a number. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``str`` | | Casts the following value to a string. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``!`` | Unary | Logical NOT. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``+`` | | Pluss prefix. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``-`` | | Minus prefix. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``~`` | | Bitwise one's complement. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``*`` | Binary | Multiplication (product). | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``/`` | | Division (quotient). | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``%`` | | Modulus (remainder). | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``+`` | Binary | Addition (sum). | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``-`` | | Subtraction (difference). | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``<<`` | Binary | Bitwise left shift. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``>>`` | | Bitwise right shift. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``<=`` | Binary | Less or equal than. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``<`` | | Less than. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``>=`` | | Greater or equal than. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``>`` | | Greater than. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``==`` | Binary | Equal to. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``!=`` | | Not equal to. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``&`` | Binary | Bitwise AND. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``^`` | Binary | Bitwise XOR. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``|`` | Binary | Bitwise OR. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``&&`` | Binary | Logical AND. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``||`` | Binary | Logical OR. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ Built-in functions ------------------ String Manipulation Functions: Replace ``from`` with ``to`` in ``text``:: $(subst from,to,text) Replace words matching ``pattern`` with ``replacement`` in ``text``:: $(patsubst pattern,replacement,text) Remove excess whitespace characters from ``string``:: $(strip string) Locate ``find`` in ``text``, returning ``find`` if found:: $(findstring find,text) Select words in ``text`` that match one of the ``pattern`` words:: $(filter pattern...,text) Select words in ``text`` that do not match any of the ``pattern`` words:: $(filter-out pattern...,text) Sort the words in ``list`` lexicographically, removing duplicates:: $(sort list) Sort the words in ``list`` lexicographically in reserve order, removing duplicates [1]_:: $(rsort list) Count the number of words in ``text``:: $(words text) Extract the ``n``\th word (one-origin) of ``text``:: $(word n,text) Returns the list of words in ``text`` from ``s`` to ``e`` (one-origin):: $(wordlist s,e,text) Extract the first word of ``names``:: $(firstword names...)

The ``in-fmt`` defaults to ``fmt`` if not specified. While ``fmt`` defaults to ``%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ`` if not specified [1]_:: $(date-utc fmt,time,in-fmt) Returns the current nanosecond timestamp (monotonic when possible) [1]_:: $(nanots ) Returns the size of the specified file, or -1 if the size could not be obtained. This can be used to check if a file exist or not [1]_:: $(file-size file) Searches the ``PATH`` ``kmk`` variable for the specified ``files`` [1]_:: $(which files...) OS/2: Returns the specified LIBPATH variable value [1]_:: $(libpath var) OS/2: Sets the specified LIBPATH variable value, returning the empty string [1]_:: $(libpath var,value) Debugging Functions: Returns various make statistics, if no item is specified a default selection is returned [1]_:: $(make-stats item[,itemN]) Raise a debug breakpoint. Used for debugging ``kmk`` makefile parsing [1]_:: $(breakpoint ) Recipes ------- A typical recipe takes one of the two following forms:: targets : normal-prerequisites | order-only-prerequisites command ... targets : normal-prerequisites | order-only-prerequisites ; command command ... Specifying more than one file in the ``targets`` lists is the same as repeating the recipe for each of the files. Use ``+`` and ``+|`` in the list of ``targets`` to tell ``kmk`` that the recipe has more than one output. [1]_ The files after a ``+`` will always be remade, while the files after a ``+|`` don't have to be remade. The latter is frequently employed to update files which prerequisites change wihtout the output files necessarily changing. See also ``kmk_cp --changed``. Double colon recipes Double colon recipes are written with ``::`` instead of ``:`` and are handled differently from ordinary recipes if the target appears in more than one recipe. First, all the recipes must be of the double colon type. Second, the recipes are executed individually and may be omitted depending on the state of their prerequisites. Double colon recipes without any prerequisites will always be executed. Pattern rules A couple of examples:: %.o : %.c gcc -o $@ $< %.tab.c %.tab.h : %.y bison -d $< The latter has two outputs. ----- .. [1] ``kmk`` only feature. ..

If it | | | appears without prerequisites it the suffix | | | will be cleared. | +-------------------------------+---------------------------------------------+ Commands -------- Builtin commands [1]_ all start with ``kmk_builtin_``, so in order to save space this prefix has been omitted in the table below. All commands comes in an external edition that can be used by/in the shell, these are prefixed ``kmk_``. +---------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+ | Command | Description | +===============+=============================================================+ | ``append`` | Append text to a file.

There are however some peculiarities because of the way GNU ``make`` choose to represent booleans in its function library, so, strings can be turned into boolean by taking any non-empty string as true. Quoting using single quotes results in hard strings, while double quotes and unquoted string results in soft strings that can be converted to number or boolean to fit the situation. Here's the operator table in decending precedence order: +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | Operator | Type | Description | +===============+========+=====================================================+ | ``defined`` | Unary | Checks if the following variable exists. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``exists`` | | Checks if the following file exists. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``target`` | | Checks if the following target exists. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``bool`` | | Casts the following value to boolean. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``num`` | | Casts the following value to a number. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``str`` | | Casts the following value to a string. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``!`` | Unary | Logical NOT. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``+`` | | Pluss prefix. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``-`` | | Minus prefix. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``~`` | | Bitwise one's complement. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``*`` | Binary | Multiplication (product). | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``/`` | | Division (quotient). | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``%`` | | Modulus (remainder). | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``+`` | Binary | Addition (sum). | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``-`` | | Subtraction (difference). | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``<<`` | Binary | Bitwise left shift. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``>>`` | | Bitwise right shift. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``<=`` | Binary | Less or equal than. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``<`` | | Less than. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``>=`` | | Greater or equal than. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``>`` | | Greater than. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``==`` | Binary | Equal to. | +---------------+ +-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``!=`` | | Not equal to. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``&`` | Binary | Bitwise AND. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``^`` | Binary | Bitwise XOR. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``|`` | Binary | Bitwise OR. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``&&`` | Binary | Logical AND. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | ``||`` | Binary | Logical OR. | +---------------+--------+-----------------------------------------------------+ Built-in functions ------------------ String Manipulation Functions: Replace ``from`` with ``to`` in ``text``:: $(subst from,to,text) Replace words matching ``pattern`` with ``replacement`` in ``text``:: $(patsubst pattern,replacement,text) Remove excess whitespace characters from ``string``:: $(strip string) Locate ``find`` in ``text``, returning ``find`` if found:: $(findstring find,text) Select words in ``text`` that match one of the ``pattern`` words:: $(filter pattern...,text) Select words in ``text`` that do not match any of the ``pattern`` words:: $(filter-out pattern...,text) Sort the words in ``list`` lexicographically, removing duplicates:: $(sort list) Sort the words in ``list`` lexicographically in reserve order, removing duplicates [1]_:: $(rsort list) Count the number of words in ``text``:: $(words text) Extract the ``n``\th word (one-origin) of ``text``:: $(word n,text) Returns the list of words in ``text`` from ``s`` to ``e`` (one-origin):: $(wordlist s,e,text) Extract the first word of ``names``:: $(firstword names...)

Note that this might not produce the 100% correct result if any of the prerequisite automatic variables are used [1]_:: $(commands target) $(commands-sc target) $(commands-usr target,sep) Compares two commands returning the empty string if equal and the 3rd argument if not. This differs from ``$(comp-vars v1,v2,ne)`` in that line by line is stripped of leading spaces, command prefixes and trailing spaces before comparing [1]_:: $(comp-cmds cmds-var1, cmds-var2, ne) $(comp-cmds-ex cmds1, cmd2, ne) Compares the values of the two variables returning the empty string if equal and the 3rd argument if not. Leading and trailing spaces is ignored [1]_:: $(comp-var var1, var2, ne) Utility functions: When this function is evaluated, ``kmk`` generates a fatal error with the message ``text``:: $(error text...) When this function is evaluated, ``kmk`` generates a warning with the message ``text``:: $(warning text...) When this function is evaluated, ``kmk`` generates a info with the message ``text``:: $(info text...) Execute a shell ``command`` and return its output:: $(shell command) Return a string with the location where the ``kmk`` variable ``variable`` was defined:: $(where variable) Return a string describing how the ``kmk`` variable ``variable`` was defined:: $(origin variable) Return a string describing the flavor of the ``kmk`` variable ``variable``:: $(flavor variable) Returns the current local time and date formatted in the ``strftime`` style specifier ``fmt``. ``fmt`` defaults to ``%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S`` when not specified [1]_:: $(date fmt) Returns the current UTC time and date formatted in the ``strftime`` style specifier ``fmt``. ``fmt`` defaults to ``%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ`` when not specified [1]_:: $(date-utc fmt) Reformats the ``in`` time and date using ``fmt``. The ``in-fmt`` defaults to ``fmt`` if not specified. While ``fmt`` defaults to ``%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ`` if not specified [1]_:: $(date-utc fmt,time,in-fmt) Returns the current nanosecond timestamp (monotonic when possible) [1]_:: $(nanots ) Returns the size of the specified file, or -1 if the size could not be obtained. This can be used to check if a file exist or not [1]_:: $(file-size file) Searches the ``PATH`` ``kmk`` variable for the specified ``files`` [1]_:: $(which files...) OS/2: Returns the specified LIBPATH variable value [1]_:: $(libpath var) OS/2: Sets the specified LIBPATH variable value, returning the empty string [1]_:: $(libpath var,value) Debugging Functions: Returns various make statistics, if no item is specified a default selection is returned [1]_:: $(make-stats item[,itemN]) Raise a debug breakpoint. Used for debugging ``kmk`` makefile parsing [1]_:: $(breakpoint ) Recipes ------- A typical recipe takes one of the two following forms:: targets : normal-prerequisites | order-only-prerequisites command ... targets : normal-prerequisites | order-only-prerequisites ; command command ... Specifying more than one file in the ``targets`` lists is the same as repeating the recipe for each of the files. Use ``+`` and ``+|`` in the list of ``targets`` to tell ``kmk`` that the recipe has more than one output. [1]_ The files after a ``+`` will always be remade, while the files after a ``+|`` don't have to be remade. The latter is frequently employed to update files which prerequisites change wihtout the output files necessarily changing. See also ``kmk_cp --changed``. Double colon recipes Double colon recipes are written with ``::`` instead of ``:`` and are handled differently from ordinary recipes if the target appears in more than one recipe. First, all the recipes must be of the double colon type. Second, the recipes are executed individually and may be omitted depending on the state of their prerequisites. Double colon recipes without any prerequisites will always be executed. Pattern rules A couple of examples:: %.o : %.c gcc -o $@ $< %.tab.c %.tab.h : %.y bison -d $< The latter has two outputs. ----- .. [1] ``kmk`` only feature. ..
