DETAILS

        MANIFEST: Cook.pm
        PROJECT: meta
        VERSION: 0.50

SYNOPSIS

        package foo;
        use Meta::Baseline::Cook qw();
        my($cook)=Meta::Baseline::Cook->new();
        $cook->exec_build([params]);

DESCRIPTION

This library is intended to supply all demanders (i.e. Peter Miller's cook, other scripts or any other inquirer) any information regarding cook related parameters in the project. In addition this library knows how to do cook related stuff (write and read dependencies in cook format...).

FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION

new($)

This gives you a new cook object.

search_list($)

This returns the search_list variable in cook format (space separated...).

inte($)

This returns 0 or 1 accroding to whether this is an integration state.

deve($)

This returns 0 or 1 accroding to whether this is a development state.

temp_dir($)

This will return a temp directory to hold cook junk files. (lists, temporary files, etc...).

touch($$$$$)

This routine receives file to touch,epoch date and a verbose variable. It check if the the directory in which the file resides has a ".cook.fp" file in it. If so, it checks if the file name is in the ".cook.fp" file. If so, it chages the file's date (in epoch seconds) to the epoch date received from whatever was in there. In either case it uses the regular mechanism and touches the file using the epoch received. The overall effect is that cook will be aware that the file has indeed changed.

touch_now($$$$)

This routine receives a file, a demo flag and a verbose flag. The routine finds the current time using Meta::Utils::Time::now_epoch and then calls touch from this module to change the cook time to the current time.

exec_development_build($$$$)

This routine executes a development build. It receives a list of arguments as the partial build targets and executes cook. The routine returns the status from cook on exit.

exec_build($$$)

This command executes an integration build. This is the reason why the command does not receive any arguments since partial builds in integration time are not allowed. This just calls exec_development_build with no partial targets. This returns the correct state output. This routine receives a demo flag of whether to run as demo or not.

This method gets a dependency object and prints it out in cook style. A dependency object is just a graph so what it needed here is the following: pass over every node (in whatever order) and for each node find edges to other nodes and emit the "cascase" type statements for cook. If the node does not have any adjacents - no need to emit anything!!! right ?

This method is exactly as print_deps_handle except it also opens and closes a file.

read_deps($$$)

This method receives a baseline related file name and assumes that its a cook dependency file written by the above print_deps methods. It adds the dependency information it finds in the file to the graph it gets also as input. It also receives a parameters telling it whether to be recursive or not.

read_deps_full($)

This method is just convenience wrapper around the read_deps method. It generates the graph that will be used to hold the dependency information. It also returns that graph at the end.

TEST($)

Test suite for this module. This just prints out some statistics out of that module.

SUPER CLASSES

TODO

-unite all the init routines into init and make that code run on usage (in the BEGIN block of the module...).

-In the init routine: Get names of architectures. Get names of machines. Get names of languages supported.

-split the unix_path routine to fixpath and fixline where the difference is that the first matches a single match at the begining and the later matches many matches anywhere.

-remove the unix_path routine from this module once we fix the amd maps.

-add more functionality here like auto script making for auto mounting on the NT machines, distinguishing between Watcom and Visual C++ etc... (machines that give out services that is...).

-maybe when we give a list of machines to cook we should double the name of the current host or something to refelect the fact that he's faster ? check with peter... Maybe we should double the name of the host on which the change resides locally ?

-make is_plat not do that ugly "|| $plat eq "scr"" stuff.
