This is the h2pas program, a utility to convert C header files to pascal
|
|
units. It is part of the Free Pascal distribution.
|
|
|
|
COMPILING
|
|
|
|
To compile the program, a simple
|
|
'make'
|
|
should be sufficient; you need GNU make for this. When using TP, a simple
|
|
tpc h2pas.pas
|
|
should also be possible.
|
|
|
|
USAGE
|
|
|
|
h2pas [-p] [-t] [-o outputfilename] [-l libname] [-u unitname] filename
|
|
|
|
-t : Prepend 'T' to all type names in typedef definitions. This may help
|
|
when the C header use uppercase types and lowercase variables of the
|
|
same name.
|
|
|
|
-p : Use 'P' instead of ^ as a pointer symbol;
|
|
This will convert
|
|
^char to pchar
|
|
^longint to plongint
|
|
etc. It will also define a PSOMETYPE pointer for each SOMETYPE struct type
|
|
definition in the header file.
|
|
Thus
|
|
typedef struct somestruct {
|
|
...
|
|
}
|
|
Will be converted to
|
|
somestruct = record
|
|
...
|
|
end;
|
|
PSomestruct = ^Somestruct;
|
|
If the -t options is used, the -p option takes care of that too.
|
|
|
|
-l : In the implementation part, the external functions will be
|
|
written with 'external libname;' behind it.
|
|
If you omit this option, all functions will be declared as
|
|
cdecl; external;
|
|
|
|
-o : specify the outputname. By default, the inputname is used, with
|
|
extension '.pp'.
|
|
|
|
-u : Specify the unit name. By default, the outputname is used, without
|
|
extension.
|
|
|
|
-v : Replaces pointer types in parameter list by call by reference
|
|
parameters:
|
|
void p(int *i) => procedure p(var i : longint);
|
|
|
|
Enjoy !
