PMKSYNTAX(5) BSD File Formats Manual PMKSYNTAX(5)NAME
PMK Syntax -- PMK files syntax manual
DESCRIPTION
This manual page describe the basic syntax used in PMK files such as pmkfile and scanfile
DATA TYPES
PMK uses pseudo types like the following:
bool The classical boolean type with TRUE and FALSE values.
For example:
TRUE
FALSE
identifier An identifier is a string of alphanumerical and underscores characters.
For example:
REQUIRED
a_label
underscores_are_nice
quoted This means quoted string which can contain a set of characters delimited by quotation marks.
For examples:
"simple quoted string"
"string that contain "quotes" backslashed"
"can also contain filenames like pmkfile.scan"
list It is one or more of the previous types between brackets. Multiple objects are separated with a comma. Blanks are currently not
allowed beside commas, this means that you can find them only in a quoted string of the list.
For example:
("only_one_string")
("added a boolean",TRUE)
(mixed_list_of,"words","and",TRUE,"quoted strings")
BASIC SYNTAX
PMK can contain comments, blank lines and commands.
A command has the following format (? character means optional field):
<command><?(label)> {
<body>
}
The command and label names can be assimilated to the 'word' type. See DATA TYPES above.
The body can contain comment(s) and definition line(s). A commented line start with a '#' character like the following:
# this is a comment line
A definition line has the following format:
<?blank><key name><?blank>=<?blank><key value>
The key name is of identifier type.
The key value type can be 'bool', 'quoted' or 'list'. The right type will depend on the key name (see further).
For example:
CHECK_INCLUDE(header_sys_param) {
# following options use different uses of blank characters
# key value is word type
REQUIRED = TRUE
# key value is list type
DEPEND= ("dep_one",dep_two,"dep_three")
# key value is quoted type
INCLUDE = "sys/param.h"
}
