PROGRAM:
NAME
sparkmake - generates SPARK index and metafiles
SYNOPSIS
spark [OPTIONS] [ROOT_FILE]
DESCRIPTION
The SPARKMake tool automatically generates two files that can be used as arguments to the
Examiner command line: The index file and the meta file. For more information please refer
to the full Examiner manual.
This manual page only summarises the sparkmake command-line flags, please refer to the
full SPARKMake manual for further information.
OPTIONS
These options do not quite follow the usual GNU command line syntax. All options start
with a single dash instead of the usual two and they can also be abbreviated, as long as
the abbreviation is unique. For example -expand can be abbreviated to -expa but not -exp
as this clashes with -export_indent.
For a description of the regular expression syntax, please refer to the appropriate
section below.
If ROOT_FILE is not given then we produce an index and metafile for all files in and under
the current directory.
-help Display command-line help.
-version
Display version information.
-directory=DIRNAME
Look in and under DIRNAME as well as the current working directory. This option can
be specified more than once; buy default we only look at the current working
directory.
-include=REGEXP
Only include files if their full path matches the given regular expression.
-exclude=REGEXP
Exclude files if their full patch matches the given regular expression.
-duplicates_are_errors
Fail if duplicate units are found.
-annotation_character=CHAR
Select alternative annotation character. The default is '#'.
-language=L
This can be one of 83, 95 (the default) or 2005.
-index=FILE_SPEC, -noindexfile
The index file to generate, by default this is ROOT_FILE.idx.
-meta=FILE_SPEC, -nometafile
The metafile to generate, by default this is ROOT_FILE.smf.
-path_option=MODE
Produce 'relative' or 'full' pathnames. By default we produce full pathnames.
SPARKMAKE REGULAR EXPRESSION SYNTAX
Please note that the regular expression syntax used by SPARKMake differs from both POSIX
and Perl regular expressions. Please also take care to appropriately escape anythign that
your shell might replace or expand (such as * or ?). The characters '{' and '}' are not
allowed to appear in any regular expression.
reg_exp = term
term = elmt | elmt elmt ... | * | ? | [char char ...] | [char - char]
elmt = nchr | [nchr nchr ...] | [^ nchr nchr ...] | [nchr - nchr] | . | ( reg_exp )
The * has special meaning; it matches any string of 0 or more characters. Note that this
differs from POSIX regex where the equivalent would be '.*'.
The special characters ? and . have the same meaning, they match any character. Thus, ?
does not hold the same meaning it does in a POSIX regular expression.
The [ab...] notation means the usual: match any character listed.
The [a-f] notation means the usual: match any character in the given range.
The [^a-f] notation means the usual: match any character not in the given range.
char can be any character, including special characters. nchr can be any character except
'\', '(', ')', '[', ']', '.', '*', '+', '?' or '^'. It is possible to specify such a
special character by escaping it with a backslash.
