Summary
This package contains a collection of tools for the waf build environment.
Description
The waf framework provides a meta build system allowing users to create concrete build systems. Out of the box it provides support for building and installation of programs for a myriad of programming languages (C, C++, Java, Python, Fortran, Lua, …), when needed new functions (e.g. source code checking) can be added to a concrete build solution using waf tools which can be imported and used in wscript build files. See the wafbook for a detailed description of the waf meta build system structure and usage.
The waftools package provides a collection of such tools which, once installed, can be imported and used from any wscript build file on your system. Following provides a non-exhausting list of functions provided by this package:
C/C++ export to makefiles (e.g. make, cmake)
C/C++ export to IDE’s (e.g. Code::Blocks, Eclipse, Visual Studio)
C/C++ source code checking using cppcheck (including html reports)
Create installers using NSIS
Create C/C++ documentation using DoxyGen
List dependencies between build tasks
Usage
The code snippet below provides an example on how the export function from the waftools package can be added to (top) level wscript file of a (your) concrete build solution:
import waftools
def options(opt):
opt.load('compiler_c')
opt.load('export', tooldir=waftools.location)
def configure(conf):
conf.load('compiler_c')
conf.load('export')
def build(bld):
bld.program(target='hello', source='hello.c')
Using this code snippet, the meta-data for the program hello can be exported to foreign (build) formats outside of the waf build environment using the export command:
waf configure waf export --codeblocks
For more information on using waf commands and options use:
waf --help
