CPP(1) General Commands Manual CPP(1)NAME
cpp - C language preprocessor
SYNOPSIS
cpp [ option ... ] [ ifile [ ofile ] ]
DESCRIPTION
Cpp interprets ANSI C preprocessor directives and does macro substitution. The input ifile and output ofile default to standard input and
standard output respectively.
The options are:
-Dname
-Dname=def
-Idir Same as in 2c(1).
-M Generate no output except a list of include files in a form suitable for specifying dependencies to mk(1). Use twice to list files
in angle brackets.
-N Turn off default include directories. All must be specified with -I. Without this option, /$objtype/include and /sys/include are
used as the last two searched directories for include directives, where $objtype is read from the environment.
-V Print extra debugging information.
-+ Understand C++ comments.
The output file contains processed text sprinkled with lines that show the original input line numbering:
#line linenumber "ifile"
The input language is as described in the ANSI C standard. The C compilers do not use cpp; they contain their own simple but adequate pre-
processor, so cpp is usually superfluous.
FILES
/sys/include
directory for machine-independent include files
/$objtype/include
directory for machine-dependent include files

ALEF(1) General Commands Manual ALEF(1)NAME
8al, kal, val - ALEF compilers
SYNOPSIS
8al [ option ... ] [ file ... ]
kal [ option ... ] [ file ... ]
val [ option ... ] [ file ... ]
DESCRIPTION
ALEF is a concurrent programming language with a syntax like C's. Kal, val and 8al compile the named ALEF source files into SPARC, MIPS
and Intel 386 object files. Source files have the extension .l. The ALEF source is passed through cpp(1) prior to compilation. Object
files have the normal extension for each architecture: .k for SPARC, .v for MIPS and .8 for 386. Up to $NPROC files will be compiled in
parallel.
The compiler options are:
-o obj Place output in file obj (ignored if there is more than one input file). Default is to take the last element of the input pathname,
strip any trailing .l, and append the object file suffix.
-a Write no object file, but produce an acid(1) program on standard output, comprising a set of type declarations and functions to
print those types.
-aa Like -a but suppress output for types and functions declared in header files.
-w Print warning messages for non fatal errors.
-N Do not run the code optimizer.
-c Do not compile code for check statements.
-S Produce assembly language instead of object code as output. By default, output goes to a file named by the last element of the
input pathname with .l replaced by .s.
-Dname=def
-Dname Define the name to the preprocessor, as if by If no definition is given, the name is defined as
-Idir files whose names do not begin with are always sought first in the directory of the file argument, then in directories named in -I
options, then in /sys/include/alef, and finally in /$objtype/include/alef.
-dc Produce various forms of debugging. The character c is an alphabetic.
The compiler recognizes several #pragma directives. The first, #pragma lib, is the same as in 2c(1). The others have effect only when
profiling is turned on by the -p option of the loader (see 2l(1)). The directive #pragma noprofile disables the generation of profiling
code for subsequently declared functions; #pragma profile enables it again. The main use of these directives is to avoid the profiling
confusion caused by functions that do not explicitly return, such as the task-switching functions in the run-time system. Nonetheless,
without support for profiling multi-process programs, it remains difficult to profile Alef programs.
EXAMPLE
To compile and run on a SPARC the ALEF program in the current directory:
kal -w *.l
kl *.k
k.out
FILES
/sys/include/alef
directory for #include files.
/$objtype/lib/alef
directory for ALEF libraries
SOURCE
/sys/src/alef/port
machine-independent part
/sys/src/alef/8, etc.
machine-dependent parts
