41 Automake::Rule - support for rules definitions
43 =head1 SYNOPSIS
45 use Automake::Rule;
46 use Automake::RuleDef;
49 =head1 DESCRIPTION
51 This package provides support for Makefile rule definitions.
53 An C<Automake::Rule> is a rule name associated to possibly
54 many conditional definitions. These definitions are instances
55 of C<Automake::RuleDef>.
57 Therefore obtaining the value of a rule under a given
58 condition involves two lookups. One to look up the rule,
59 and one to look up the conditional definition:
61 my $rule = rule $name;
62 if ($rule)
64 my $def = $rule->def ($cond);
65 if ($def)
67 return $def->location;
69 ...
71 ...
73 when it is known that the rule and the definition
74 being looked up exist, the above can be simplified to
76 return rule ($name)->def ($cond)->location; # do not write this.
78 but is better written
80 return rrule ($name)->rdef ($cond)->location;
82 or even
84 return rruledef ($name, $cond)->location;
86 The I<r> variants of the C<rule>, C<def>, and C<ruledef> methods add
87 an extra test to ensure that the lookup succeeded, and will diagnose
88 failures as internal errors (with a message which is much more
89 informative than Perl's warning about calling a method on a
90 non-object).

108 =item C<%dependencies>
110 Holds the dependencies of targets which dependencies are factored.
111 Typically, C<.PHONY> will appear in plenty of F<*.am> files, but must
112 be output once. Arguably all pure dependencies could be subject to
113 this factoring, but it is not unpleasant to have paragraphs in
114 Makefile: keeping related stuff altogether.
116 =cut
118 use vars '%dependencies';
120 =item <%actions>
122 Holds the factored actions. Tied to C<%dependencies>, i.e., filled
123 only when keys exists in C<%dependencies>.

127 use vars '%actions';
129 =item <$suffix_rules>
131 This maps the source extension for all suffix rules seen to
132 a C<hash> whose keys are the possible output extensions.
134 Note that this is transitively closed by construction:
135 if we have
136 exists $suffix_rules{$ext1}{$ext2}
137 && exists $suffix_rules{$ext2}{$ext3}
138 then we also have
139 exists $suffix_rules{$ext1}{$ext3}
141 So it's easy to check whether C<.foo> can be transformed to
142 C<.$(OBJEXT)> by checking whether
143 C<$suffix_rules{'.foo'}{'.$(OBJEXT)'}> exists. This will work even if
144 transforming C<.foo> to C<.$(OBJEXT)> involves a chain of several
145 suffix rules.
147 The value of C<$suffix_rules{$ext1}{$ext2}> is a pair
148 C<[ $next_sfx, $dist ]> where C<$next_sfx> is target suffix
149 for the next rule to use to reach C<$ext2>, and C<$dist> the
150 distance to C<$ext2'>.

162 by the languages supported by Automake). Using this pattern (instead
163 of '\..*$') to match extensions allows Automake to support dot-less
164 extensions.
166 New extensions should be registered with C<accept_extensions>.
