perlcc - frontend for perl compiler

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    %prompt  perlcc a.p        # compiles into executable 'a'

    %prompt  perlcc A.pm       # compile into 'A.so'

    %prompt  perlcc a.p -o execute  # compiles 'a.p' into 'execute'.

    %prompt  perlcc a.p -o execute -run # compiles 'a.p' into execute, runs on
                                        # the fly

    %prompt  perlcc a.p -o execute -run -argv 'arg1 arg2 arg3' 
                                        # compiles into execute, runs with 
                                        # arg1 arg2 arg3 as @ARGV

    %prompt perlcc a.p b.p c.p -regex 's/\.p/\.exe'
                                        # compiles into 'a.exe','b.exe','c.exe'.

    %prompt perlcc a.p -log compilelog  # compiles into 'a', saves compilation
                                        # info into compilelog, as well
                                        # as mirroring to screen

    %prompt perlcc a.p -log compilelog -verbose cdf 
                                        # compiles into 'a', saves compilation
                                        # info into compilelog, being silent
                                        # on screen.

    %prompt perlcc a.p -C a.c -gen      # generates C code (into a.c) and 
                                        # stops without compile.

    %prompt perlcc a.p -L ../lib a.c 
                                        # Compiles with the perl libraries 
                                        # inside ../lib included.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

'perlcc' is the frontend into the perl compiler. Typing 'perlcc a.p'
compiles the code inside a.p into a standalone executable, and 
perlcc A.pm will compile into a shared object, A.so, suitable for inclusion 
into a perl program via "use A".

There are quite a few flags to perlcc which help with such issues as compiling 
programs in bulk, testing compiled programs for compatibility with the 
interpreter, and controlling.

=head1 OPTIONS 

=over 4

=item -L < library_directories >

Adds directories in B<library_directories> to the compilation command.

=item -I  < include_directories > 

Adds directories inside B<include_directories> to the compilation command.

=item -C   < c_code_name > 

Explicitly gives the name B<c_code_name> to the generated c code which is to 
be compiled. Can only be used if compiling one file on the command line.

=item -o   < executable_name >

Explicitly gives the name B<executable_name> to the executable which is to be
compiled. Can only be used if compiling one file on the command line.

=item -e   < perl_line_to_execute>

Compiles 'one liners', in the same way that B<perl -e> runs text strings at 
the command line. Default is to have the 'one liner' be compiled, and run all
in one go (see B<-run>); giving the B<-o> flag saves the resultant executable, 
rather than throwing it away. Use '-argv' to pass arguments to the executable
created.

=item -regex   <rename_regex>

Gives a rule B<rename_regex> - which is a legal perl regular expression - to 
create executable file names.

=item -verbose <verbose_level>

Show exactly what steps perlcc is taking to compile your code. You can change 
the verbosity level B<verbose_level> much in the same way that the '-D' switch 
changes perl's debugging level, by giving either a number which is the sum of 
bits you want or a list of letters representing what you wish to see. Here are 
the verbosity levels so far :

    Bit 1(g):      Code Generation Errors to STDERR
    Bit 2(a):      Compilation Errors to STDERR
    Bit 4(t):      Descriptive text to STDERR 
    Bit 8(f):      Code Generation Errors to file (B<-log> flag needed)
    Bit 16(c):     Compilation Errors to file (B<-log> flag needed)
    Bit 32(d):     Descriptive text to file (B<-log> flag needed) 

If the B<-log> tag is given, the default verbose level is 63 (ie: mirroring 
all of perlcc's output to both the screen and to a log file). If no B<-log>
tag is given, then the default verbose level is 7 (ie: outputting all of 
perlcc's output to STDERR).

NOTE: Because of buffering concerns, you CANNOT shadow the output of '-run' to
both a file, and to the screen! Suggestions are welcome on how to overcome this
difficulty, but for now it simply does not work properly, and hence will only go
to the screen.

=item -log <logname>

Opens, for append, a logfile to save some or all of the text for a given 
compile command. No rewrite version is available, so this needs to be done 
manually.

=item -argv <arguments>

In combination with '-run' or '-e', tells perlcc to run the resulting 
executable with the string B<arguments> as @ARGV.

=item -sav

Tells perl to save the intermediate C code. Usually, this C code is the name
of the perl code, plus '.c'; 'perlcode.p' gets generated in 'perlcode.p.c',
for example. If used with the '-e' operator, you need to tell perlcc where to 
save resulting executables.

=item -gen

Tells perlcc to only create the intermediate C code, and not compile the 
results. Does an implicit B<-sav>, saving the C code rather than deleting it.

=item -run

Immediately run the perl code that has been generated. NOTE: IF YOU GIVE THE 
B<-run> FLAG TO B<perlcc>, THEN THE REST OF @ARGV WILL BE INTERPRETED AS 
ARGUMENTS TO THE PROGRAM THAT YOU ARE COMPILING.

=item -prog

Indicate that the programs at the command line are programs, and should be
compiled as such. B<perlcc> will automatically determine files to be 
programs if they have B<.p>, B<.pl>, B<.bat> extensions.

=item -mod

Indicate that the programs at the command line are modules, and should be
compiled as such. B<perlcc> will automatically determine files to be 
modules if they have the extension B<.pm>.

=back

=head1 ENVIRONMENT

Most of the work of B<perlcc> is done at the command line. However, you can 
change the heuristic which determines what is a module and what is a program.
As indicated above, B<perlcc> assumes that the extensions:

.p$, .pl$, and .bat$

indicate a perl program, and:

.pm$

indicate a library, for the purposes of creating executables. And furthermore,
by default, these extensions will be replaced (and dropped ) in the process of 
creating an executable. 

To change the extensions which are programs, and which are modules, set the
environmental variables:

PERL_SCRIPT_EXT
PERL_MODULE_EXT

These two environmental variables take colon-separated, legal perl regular 
expressions, and are used by perlcc to decide which objects are which. 
For example:

setenv PERL_SCRIPT_EXT  '.prl$:.perl$'
prompt%   perlcc sample.perl

will compile the script 'sample.perl' into the executable 'sample', and

setenv PERL_MODULE_EXT  '.perlmod$:.perlmodule$'

prompt%   perlcc sample.perlmod

will  compile the module 'sample.perlmod' into the shared object 
'sample.so'

NOTE: the '.' in the regular expressions for PERL_SCRIPT_EXT and PERL_MODULE_EXT
is a literal '.', and not a wild-card. To get a true wild-card, you need to 
backslash the '.'; as in:

setenv PERL_SCRIPT_EXT '\.\.\.\.\.'

which would have the effect of compiling ANYTHING (except what is in 
PERL_MODULE_EXT) into an executable with 5 less characters in its name.

=head1 FILES

'perlcc' uses a temporary file when you use the B<-e> option to evaluate 
text and compile it. This temporary file is 'perlc$$.p'. The temporary C code is
perlc$$.p.c, and the temporary executable is perlc$$.

When you use '-run' and don't save your executable, the temporary executable is
perlc$$

=head1 BUGS

perlcc currently cannot compile shared objects on Win32. This should be fixed
by perl5.005.
