26 The basic idea behind a compiler abstraction class is that each
27 instance can be used for all the compile/link steps in building a
28 single project. Thus, attributes common to all of those compile and
29 link steps -- include directories, macros to define, libraries to link
30 against, etc. -- are attributes of the compiler instance. To allow for
31 variability in how individual files are treated, most of those
32 attributes may be varied on a per-compilation or per-link basis.

36 # keeps code that wants to know what kind of compiler it's dealing with

38 # 'isinstance'. In concrete CCompiler subclasses, 'compiler_type'
39 # should really, really be one of the keys of the 'compiler_class'

41 # function) -- authors of new compiler interface classes are

49 # (UnixCCompiler, MSVCCompiler, etc.) -- or perhaps the base
50 # class should have methods for the common ones.

635 """Compile one or more source files.
637 'sources' must be a list of filenames, most likely C/C++
638 files, but in reality anything that can be handled by a
639 particular compiler and compiler class (eg. MSVCCompiler can
640 handle resource files in 'sources'). Return a list of object
641 filenames, one per source filename in 'sources'. Depending on
642 the implementation, not all source files will necessarily be
643 compiled, but all corresponding object filenames will be
644 returned.
646 If 'output_dir' is given, object files will be put under it, while
647 retaining their original path component. That is, "foo/bar.c"
648 normally compiles to "foo/bar.o" (for a Unix implementation); if
649 'output_dir' is "build", then it would compile to
650 "build/foo/bar.o".
652 'macros', if given, must be a list of macro definitions. A macro
653 definition is either a (name, value) 2-tuple or a (name,) 1-tuple.
654 The former defines a macro; if the value is None, the macro is
655 defined without an explicit value. The 1-tuple case undefines a
656 macro. Later definitions/redefinitions/ undefinitions take
657 precedence.
659 'include_dirs', if given, must be a list of strings, the
660 directories to add to the default include file search path for this
661 compilation only.
663 'debug' is a boolean; if true, the compiler will be instructed to
664 output debug symbols in (or alongside) the object file(s).
666 'extra_preargs' and 'extra_postargs' are implementation- dependent.
667 On platforms that have the notion of a command-line (e.g. Unix,
668 DOS/Windows), they are most likely lists of strings: extra
669 command-line arguments to prepand/append to the compiler command
670 line. On other platforms, consult the implementation class
671 documentation. In any event, they are intended as an escape hatch
672 for those occasions when the abstract compiler framework doesn't
673 cut the mustard.
675 'depends', if given, is a list of filenames that all targets
676 depend on. If a source file is older than any file in
677 depends, then the source file will be recompiled. This
678 supports dependency tracking, but only at a coarse
679 granularity.

777 (ie. no directory component). These are on top of the system
