4 Description of Guile's public config header mechanics:
5 -----------------------------------------------------
6
7 Guile has four core headers:
8
9 config.h: Guile's private automatically generated configuration
10 header -- generated by configure.in and autoheader. *NOT*
11 installed during "make install" and so may not be referred to by
12 any public headers.
13
14 libguile/_scm.h: Guile's private core header. _scm.h is not
15 installed. It's only visible to the libguile sources
16 themselves, and it includes config.h, the private config header.
17 Among other things this file provides a place to make decisions
18 based on the information gathered in config.h.
19
20 libguile/scmconfig.h: Guile's public automatically generated
21 configuration header -- generated at build time by concatenating
22 the contents of libguile/scmconfig.h.top with the output from
23 libguile/gen-scmconfig. gen-scmconfig bases its output on the
24 information in the private config.h header, the contents of
25 gen-scmconfig.h (which is created by configure.in from
26 gen-scmconfig.h.in), and the information provided in this file,
27 gen-scmconfig.c.
28
29 libguile/__scm.h: Guile's public core header. This file is
30 installed and publically visible. It includes
31 libguile/scmconfig.h, the public config header and provides a
32 place to make decisions based on the information gathered in
33 scmconfig.h to define things that other headers can depend on.
34
35 Notes and guidelines:
36
37 - use 1 and 0 for public #defines instead of "def and undef",
38 i.e. use #define SCM_HAVE_FOO rather than just not defining
39 SCM_HAVE_FOO whenever possible. See GNU Coding Guidelines for
40 rationale. The only notable non-deprecated exceptions to this
41 rule are GUILE_DEBUG and GUILE_DEBUG_FREELIST which do not follow
42 this convention in order to retain backward compatibility.
43
44 - in the code below, be *VERY* careful not to use or rely on any
45 runtime-dynamic information below. For example, you cannot use
46 sizeof (FOO), but must use static information like SIZEOF_BAR
47 (from config.h) or SCM_SIZEOF_BAZ (from scmconfig.h). This is
48 because the gcc that is compiling gen-scmconfig.c and/or the
49 machine that is running gen-scmconfig may not be the same
50 compiler and/or hardware that will eventually be running Guile.
51 (i.e. keep the cross-compilation case in mind).
52
53 - try to avoid adding names to the public namespace when possible.
54 Note in the code below, that in a number of cases, we detect a
55 feature and based on that, we decide whether or not to print
56 anything at all. This decreases the extraneous #defines and
57 #ifdefery that we require in scmconfig.h
58
59 - try to avoid adding any duplicate definitions to config.h and
60 scmconfig.h. i.e. have just SCM_ENABLE_ELISP in scmconfig.h
61 rather than ENABLE_ELISP in config.h and SCM_ENABLE_ELISP in
62 scmconfig.h.
63
64 - in cases where you need to communicate information from
65 configure.in to gen-scmconfig.c, don't add an AC_DEFINE unless
66 you need it for other purposes. Just add a suitable SCM_I_GSC_*
67 variable to configure.in, set the value, AC_SUBST the value, and
68 add an appropriate line to gen-scmconfig.h.in. All gen-scmconfig
69 related AC_SUBST vars should be prefixed with SCM_I_GSC_.
70
71 - make sure that anything that we explicitly typedef publically is
72 prefixed with scm_t_. i.e. we used to typedef long to ptrdiff_t
73 if we didn't detect ptrdiff_t, but this has been changed so that
74 we typedef scm_t_ptrdiff instead so that we won't conflict with
75 any non-guile header definitions of the same type. For types
76 like intptr_t and uintptr_t which we just try to detect and don't
77 actually define, it's fine not to have a corresponding scm_t_
78 type.
79
80 - we now use SCM_SIZEOF_FOO != 0 rather than SCM_HAVE_FOO for any
81 cases where the size might actually vary. For types where the
82 size is fixed, we use SCM_HAVE_FOO, i.e. you can see us define or
83 not define SCM_HAVE_T_INT64 below when appropriate.
84
85 Rationales (not finished):
86
87 Why do we use a C program here rather than AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS?
88 --------------------------------------------------------------
89
90 The main reason is that there are some values we would need
91 access to at AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDs that are determined by configure
92 but are not available at AC_OUTPUT time. The values are *only*
93 available via config.h. We use gen-scmconfig so we can see those
94 values and make decisions based on their settings.
95
96 Why have gen-scmconfig.h.in?
97 ----------------------------
98
99 Without that header, we could end up needing multiple aliases for
100 public settings like SCM_ENABLE_ELISP. We can't define
101 SCM_ENABLE_ELISP in config.h since that header is private and any
102 definition in scmconfig.h would conflict (#ifndef might be
103 possible but runs the risk of conflicting directives), so a
104 likely solution would be to AC_DEFINE([SCM_I_ENABLE_ELISP]), and
105 then use SCM_I_ENABLE_ELISP in gen-scmconfig via config.h to
106 determine whether or not to #define SCM_ENABLE_ELISP, but this
107 leaves us with two #defined symbols for each public setting --
108 better to just have one value (public or private) that all code
109 uses.
110
111 Having this header means we can AC_SUBST a value like
112 SCM_I_GSC_ENABLE_ELISP and then set it in here via AC_OUTPUT
113 substitutions, and gen-scmconfig can use that definition to
114 determine whether or not to #define SCM_ENABLE_ELISP when
115 generating scmconfig.h, and we end up with nothing extraneous
116 added to config.h.
