NAME
pswrap - creates C procedures from segments of PostScript
language code
SYNOPSIS
pswrap [ -apr ] [ -o outputCfile ] [ -h outputHfile ] [ -s
maxstring ] inputfile
DESCRIPTION
pswrap reads input from inputfile and creates C-callable
procedures, known as wraps, that send PostScript language
code to the PostScript interpreter. inputfile contains
segments of PostScript language code wrapped with a C-like
procedure syntax.
Wraps are the most efficient way for an application to
communicate with the PostScript interpreter. For complete
documentation of pswrap and the language it accepts, see
"pswrap Reference Manual" in Programming the Display
PostScript System with X.
OPTIONS
inputfile
A file that contains one or more wrap definitions.
pswrap transforms the definitions in inputfile into C
procedures. If no input file is specified, the standard
input (which can be redirected from a file or pipe) is
used. The input file can include text other than wrap
definitions. pswrap converts wrap definitions to C
procedures and passes the other text through unchanged.
Therefore, it is possible to intersperse C-language
source code with wrap definitions in the input file.
Note: Although C code is allowed in a pswrap input
file, it is not allowed within a wrap body. In
particular, no CPP macros (for example, #define) are
allowed inside a wrap.
-a Generates ANSI C procedure prototypes for procedure
definitions in outputCfile and, optionally,
outputHfile. The -a option allows compilers that
recognize the ANSI C standard to do more complete type
checking of parameters. The -a option also causes
pswrap to generate const declarations.
Note: ANSI C procedure prototype syntax is not
recognized by most non-ANSI C compilers, including many
compilers based on the Portable C Compiler. Use the -a
option only in conjunction with a compiler that
conforms to the ANSI C Standard.
-h outputHFile
Generates a header file that contains extern
declarations for non-static wraps. This file can be
used in #include statements in modules that use wraps.
If the -a option is specified, the declarations in the
header file are ANSI C procedure prototypes. If the -h
option is omitted, a header file is not produced.
-o outputCFile
Specifies the file to which the generated wraps and
passed-through text are written. If omitted, the
standard output is used. If the -a option is also
specified, the procedure definitions generated by
pswrap are in ANSI C procedure prototype syntax.
-p Specifies that strings passed by wraps are padded so
that each data object begins on a long-word (4-byte)
boundary. This option allows wraps to run on
architectures that restrict data alignment to 4-byte
boundaries and improves performance on some other
architectures.
-r Generates reentrant code for wraps shared by more than
one process (as in shared libraries). Reentrant code
can be called recursively or by more than one thread.
The -r option causes pswrap to generate extra code, so
use it only when necessary.
-s maxstring
Sets the maximum allowable length of a PostScript
string object or hexadecimal string object in the wrap
body input. A syntax error is reported if a string is
not terminated with ) or > within maxstring characters.
maxstring cannot be set lower than 80; the default is
200.
