NAME

msgcpp - C language message catalog preprocessor
 

SYNOPSIS

msgcpp [-ACEHMPVX] [-D name[=value]] [-I directory] [-U name] 
[-T[length]] [-Y directory] [input [output] ]

DESCRIPTION

msgcpp is a C language message catalog preprocessor. It accepts cpp(1) style options and arguments. msgcpp preprocesses an input C source file and emits keyed lines to the output, usually for further processing bymsgcc(1). msgcc output is in the gencat(1) syntax. Candidate message text is determined by arguments to the last <error.h> and <option.h> functions. The msgcpp keyed output lines are:

cmd command

command is a candidate for --??keys option string generation. This is triggered by b_command(int argc, in the input.

def name string

name is a candidate variable with string value string.

str string

string should be entered into the catalog.

var name

If def name occurs then its string value should be entered into the catalog.

The input source file is preprocessed with the pp:allpossible option on. This enables non-C semantics. All source should first be compiled error-free with a real compiler before running msgcpp. The following changes are enabled for the top level files. Included file behavior is not affected.

1.

All #if, #ifdef and #ifndef branches are enabled.

2.

The first definition for a macro is retained, even when subsequent #define statements would normally redefine the macro. #undef must be used to redefine a macro.

3.

Macro calls with an improper number of arguments are silently ignored.

4.

#include on non-existent headers are silently ignored.

5.

Invalid C source characters are silently ignored.

msgcat.h is included if it exists. This file may contain macro definitions for functions that translate string arguments. If foo is a function that translates its string arguments then include the line #define foo _TRANSLATE_ in msgcat.h, or specify the option -Dfoo=_TRANSLATE_. If bar is a function that translates string arguments if the first argument is stderr, then use either #define bar _STDIO_ or -Dbar=_STDIO_.

The macro _BLD_msgcat is defined to be 1. As an alternative to msgcat.h, _TRANSLATE_ definitions could be placed inside #ifdef _BLD_msgcat ... #endif.  

OPTIONS

The following options are supported:

-A
--assert=assertion

Enter the assertion using #assert for system V compatibility.

-C
--comments

Pass comments to the output.

Comments are omitted by default.

-D
--define=name[=value]

Define the macro name to have value. This is the only portable way to pass options through cc to cpp(1).

o If =value is omitted, value is assumed to be 1 .

o If name begins with :, then it is interpreted as a libpp #pragma pp: statement.

o If name begins with %, it is interpreted as a libpp # directive statement.

o If name begins with a - or a +, it is interpreted as a libpp option.

- turns the option on, + turns it off.

o Most options have a #pragma counterpart that is listed with the option definition.

-D-C
pp:compatibility

Preprocess for K&R C compatibility.

-D-Dlevel
pp:debug level level

Set the debug trace level.

Specify level as a number greater than or equal to 0. Higher levels produce more output. Levels higher than 3 can only be enabled in the -g compiled versions.

-D-Fname

Set the main input file name to name. This only affects the error messages and the line sync output.

-D-H
pp:hosted

All directories are hosted. Compatibility warning messages from the hosted directory headers are suppressed.

-D-I
pp:cdir

All directories contain C headers. This option is only used only with -D-+.

-D-K
pp:keyargs

Enable the non-standard name=value macro argument mode.

-D-L[id]
pp:lineid [id]

Set the line sync directive id to id. If id is not specified, set to null.

-D-M
pp:nomultiple

Disable multiple include detection.

-D-P
pp:passthrough

Enable the non-standard passthrough mode. This can be useful for processing non-C input.

-D-Q
pp:dump

Dump macro definitions to the output so that the output may be passed through cpp again. This is used for generating precompiled headers.

-D-R
pp:transition

Enable the transition preprocessing mode. This is used for compilers that cannot make up their semantics between K&R and ISO C.

-D-S
pp:strict

Enable strict preprocessing semantics and warnings. This works with any mode (compatibility, transition, or the default ISO).

-D-Ttest
pp:test test

Enable implementation specific test code according to test.

-D-W
pp:warn

Enable pedantic warnings in non-hosted files.

-D-X[cc]

Preprocess for the cc compiler, which must be an executable path or an executable on $PATH.

-D-Z
pp:pool

Enable pool mode.

-D-d

List canonicalized #define statements for non-predefined macros in the output.

-D-m

List canonicalized #define statements for all macros. All other output is disabled.

-D-+
pp:plusplus

Preprocess for the C++ dialect.

-E
--preprocess

Ignored; for compatibility with very old compilers.

-H
--include-reference

Emit #include file paths on the standard error, one per line, indented to show nesting.

-I
--include[=directory]

Append directory to the list of directories searched for #include files.

If directory is -:

1.

-I directories before -I- are searched only for "..." include files

2.

-I directories after -I- are searched for "..." and <"..."> include files

3.

the directory . is searched only if it is explicitly specified by an -I option

-I-Cdirectory
pp:cdir directory

Mark directory as a C header directory. This option is used with pp:plusplus.

-I-D[file]

Read the default probe definitions from file, or ignore the default definitions if file is omitted.

-I-Hdirectory
pp:hostdir directory

Mark directory as a hosted directory. Headers from hosted directories have compatibility warnings disabled.

-I-Iheader
pp:ignore header

Add header to the list of ignored headers.

-I-Mfile

file contains a sequence of header [= "map" ] lines, where header is either <name> or "name", and "map" is an explicit binding for header. header is ignored if = "map" is omitted.

-I-Rfile

Include file but do not emit text or line syncs.

-I-Sdirectory

Add directory to the default standard include directory list.

-I-Tfile

Include file and emit text to the output file. The option value can be omitted.

-M
--dependencies

Generate make(1S) dependencies. This option is not needed with nmake.

The -M option can be followed by optional flags to change the dependency output styles.

The following optional flags are supported:

D

Generate dependencies in a separate .d file. Preprocessed output is still written to output, or the standard output if output is omitted.

G

Also generate missing dependencies.

M

Only generate local header dependencies. Hosted headers are omitted. Hosted headers are determined by the -I-H option and the --pp:hosted and pp:hostdir pragmas. No special distinction is made between the "" and <> include styles.

-P
--sync

Emit line syncs.

Line sync is turned on by default. -P means --nosync.

-T[length]

If not gcc, truncate identifiers to length characters for compatibility with old AT&T compilers.

-U
--undefine=name

Remove the definition for the macro name.

-V
--version

Emit the libpp version.

-X
--argmode

Enable name=value macro arguments for easel compatibility.

-Y
--standard=directory

Add directory to the list searched for #include <...> files.

OPERANDS

The following operands are supported:

input

Specifies C source file to preprocess.

output

Specifies output file.

EXIT STATUS

0

Successful completion.

>0

An error occurred.

EXAMPLES

Example 1 Using msgcpp to Extract Localizable Strings

The following example uses msgcpp to extract localizable strings from the file hello.c, marked using the ERROR_dictionary(), and writes them to the file hello.mso:

example% cat hello.c


#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

/*
* dummy macro to avoid including
* libast headers
*/
#define ERROR_dictionary(x) x

int main(int ac, char *av[])
{
   puts( ERROR_dictionary("hello world") );
   puts( ERROR_dictionary("hello all") );
   return( EXIT_SUCCESS );
}

example% msgcpp -D__STDC__ -D__i386 hello.c hello.mso

example% cat hello.mso
str "hello world"
str "hello all"
