NAME

cppo - lightweight cpp-like preprocessor for OCaml

SYNOPSIS

cppo [ Options... ] files ...

DESCRIPTION

cppo is the equivalent of the C preprocessor for OCaml. It permits the definition and expansion of simple (in comparison with camlp4 ) macros and file inclusion. cppo supports functional macros, conditionals, boolean and arithmetic expressions, stringification, and calling different, external preprocessors. For a precise description of the features, see /usr/share/doc/cppo/README.gz .

OPTIONS

-D IDENT

define IDENT

-U IDENT

undefine IDENT

-I DIR

add DIR to the search path for included files

-o FILE

write output to FILE

	-q		Identify and preserve camlp4 quotations
	-s		Output line directives pointing to the exact source location of each token, including those coming from the body of macro definitions. This behavior is off by default.
	-n		Do not output any line directive other than those found in the input (overrides -s ).

-version

print version and exit

-x NAME:CMD_TEMPLATE

Define a custom preprocessor target section starting with:

#ext "NAME"

and ending with:

#endext

NAME must be a lowercase identifier of the form [a-z][A-Za-z0-9_]*

CMD_TEMPLATE is a command template supporting the following special sequences:

	%F file name (unescaped; beware of potential scripting attacks)
	%B number of the first line
	%E number of the last line
	%% a single percent sign

The filename, the first line number and the last line number are available to the external preprocessor via the environment variables CPPO_FILE , CPPO_FIRST_LINE , CPPO_LAST_LINE .

The command is expected to read from stdin and to write to stdout.
