+.TH ppmove 1 "9 June 1999" FreePascal "Free Pascal unit mover"
|
|
|
+.SH NAME
|
|
|
+ppdep \- The FPC Pascal unit mover.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+\fBppumove\fP [-sqbhw] [-o File] [-d path] [-e extension] files...
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.SH Description
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+\fBppumove\fP collects one or several Free Pascal unit files and archives
|
|
|
+them in a static or shared library.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.SH Usage
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+You can invoke \fBppumove\fP with as the only required argument the
|
|
|
+name of the unit from which you want to make an archive. Specifying
|
|
|
+multiple files is also possible, they will be put in the same archive.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.SH Options
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+\fBppumove\fP has several options, which are case sensitive:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.IP \fI\-b\fP
|
|
|
+This option tells \fBppumove\fP to write a shell script (a batch file on
|
|
|
+DOS) that performs the needed calls to \fBar\fP and \fBld\fP. The script
|
|
|
+will be called \fBpmove\fP, with an extension of \fB.sh\fP on Linux,
|
|
|
+and \fB.bat\fP on DOS. You can then call this script manually afterwards.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.IP \fI\-d\ path\fP
|
|
|
+This option tells \fBppumove\fP where to generate the new unit files.
|
|
|
+By default, this is the same directory as where the files are found.
|
|
|
+If you specify as the output extension the same extension as the units
|
|
|
+you want to move, not specifying the destination directory may cause
|
|
|
+problems.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.IP \fI\-e\ ext\fP
|
|
|
+This option sets the extension of the new unit files to \fBext\fP. By
|
|
|
+default \fB.ppl\fP is used. However, you can specify \fB.ppu\fP as the
|
|
|
+extension. If you do, be sure to use also the \fI\-d\fP switch, or you will
|
|
|
+overwrite the old units. Note however, that the compiler will only look for
|
|
|
+extensions \fB.ppu\fP and \fB.ppl\fP when looking for units.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.IP \fI\-h\fP
|
|
|
+Shows a short help screen.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.IP \fI\-o\ file\fP
|
|
|
+This option allows you to specify the name of the library to be generated.
|
|
|
+You \fBmust\fP use this option if you specify more than one unit on the
|
|
|
+command-line. If you specified only one unit on the command-line, the generated library
|
|
|
+will have the unit name, with \fBlib\fP prepended (on Linux).
|
|
|
+You do not need to specify the \fBlib\fP part, this will be prepended
|
|
|
+automatically if needed.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.IP \fI\-q\fP
|
|
|
+Tells \fBppumove\fP to operate quietly.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.IP \fI\-s\fP
|
|
|
+Tells \fBppumove\fP to generate a static library. By default, a shared
|
|
|
+library is generated (except on DOS).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+.IP \fI\-w\fP
|
|
|
+Tells \fBppumove\fP it should use the windows linker and archiver. Do not
|
|
|
+use this option on Linux.
