EDE
***

EDE is the Emacs Development Environment: an Emacs extension that
simplifies building and debugging programs in Emacs.  It attempts to
emulate a typical IDE (Integrated Development Environment).  EDE can
manage or create your makefiles and other building environment duties,
allowing you to concentrate on writing code rather than support files.
It aims to make it much easier for new programmers to learn and adopt
GNU ways of doing things.

   This file describes EDE, the Emacs Development Environment.

1 EDE Project Concepts
**********************

EDE is a generic interface for managing projects.  It specifies a
single set of menus and keybindings, while supporting multiple ways to
express a project via a build system.

   In the subsequent chapters, we will describe the different project
types (*note Creating a project::), as well as the commands to build
and debug projects (*note Building and Debugging::).

   In EDE, a project hierarchy matches a directory hierarchy.  The
project's topmost directory is called the "project root", and its
subdirectories are "subprojects".

   Each project can contain multiple "targets".  A target, at the
simplest level, is a named collection of files within a project.  A
target can specify two different types of information:

  1. A collection of files to be added to a distribution (e.g., a
     tarball that you intend to distribute to others).

  2. A collection of files that can be built into something else (e.g.,
     a program or compiled documentation).

   Lastly, EDE provides a way for other tools to easily learn file
associations.  For example, a program might need to restrict some sort
of search to files in a single target, or to discover the location of
documentation or interface files.  EDE can provide this information.


File: ede,  Node: EDE Mode,  Next: Creating a project,  Prev: EDE Project Concepts,  Up: Top

2 EDE Mode
**********

EDE is implemented as a minor mode, which augments other modes such as
C mode, and Texinfo mode.  You can enable EDE for all buffers by
running the command `global-ede-mode', or by putting this in your init
file:

     (global-ede-mode t)

   Activating EDE adds a menu named `Development' to the menu bar.
This menu provides several menu items for high-level EDE commands.
These menu items, and their corresponding keybindings, are independent
of the type of project you are actually working on.


File: ede,  Node: Creating a project,  Next: Modifying your project,  Prev: EDE Mode,  Up: Top

3 Creating a project
********************

To create a new project, first visit a file that you want to include in
that project.  If you have a hierarchy of directories, first visit a
file in the topmost directory.  From this buffer, type `M-x ede-new',
or click on the `Create Project' item in the `Development' menu.

   The `ede-new' command prompts for the type of project you would like
to create.  Each project type has its own benefits or language specific
enhancements.  EDE supports four different project types: `Make',
`Automake', `direct Automake', and `Simple'.

   * For the `Make' project type, EDE creates a "project file", called
     `Project.ede', in each project directory.  Information about the
     project is stored in this file.  This project autogenerates a
     `Makefile'.

   * For the `Automake' project type, EDE creates a `Project.ede'
     project file similar to a `Make' project.  Unlike a `Make'
     project, this project autogenerates a `Makefile.am' file.  EDE
     handles the Automake bootstrapping routines, which import and
     maintain a `configure.am' script and other required files.

   * For the `direct Automake' project type, EDE reads directly from
     the Automake files.

     You cannot create direct Automake projects with the `ede-new'
     command.  Instead, when you visit a project with existing Automake
     files, EDE automatically detects them.

   * The `Simple' project type provides light-weight constructs for
     identifying a project root and looking up files.  If you already
     have a non-EDE project infrastructure, you can use a `Simple'
     project to provide other Emacs packages, such as Semantic, with
     some information about the project.  *Note Simple projects::.

   A subproject is merely a project in a subdirectory of another
project.  You can create a subproject by using the `ede-new' command (or
the `Create Project' menu item), while visiting a buffer in a
subdirectory of the project root.  This new project is automatically
added to the parent project, and will be automatically loaded when EDE
reads the parent project.

   When using a project command that involves a makefile, EDE uses the
top-most project's makefile as a starting place for the build.  How the
toplevel project handles subprojects in the build process is dependent
on that project's type.

4 Modifying your project
************************

In this chapter, we describe the generic features for manipulating
projects, including the targets and files within them.  Subsequent
chapters, which describe specific project types, will provide more
detailed information about exactly what these features do.

* Menu:

* Add/Remove target::
* Add/Remove files::
* Customize Features::
* EDE Project Features::


File: ede,  Node: Add/Remove target,  Next: Add/Remove files,  Prev: Modifying your project,  Up: Modifying your project

4.1 Add/Remove target
=====================

To create a new target, type `C-c . t' (`ede-new-target') or use the
`Add Target' menu item in the `Project Options' submenu.  This prompts
for a target name, and adds the current buffer to that target.

   The `ede-new-target' command also prompts for a "target type".  Each
target type has its own build process and class of files that it will
accept.

   To remove a target from the project, type `M-x ede-delete-target',
or use the `Remove Target' menu item in the `Project Options' submenu.


File: ede,  Node: Add/Remove files,  Next: Customize Features,  Prev: Add/Remove target,  Up: Modifying your project

4.2 Add/Remove files
====================

To add the current file to an existing target, type `C-c . a'
(`ede-add-file'), or use the `Add File' menu item in the `Target
Options' submenu.

   You can add a file to more than one target; this is OK.

   To remove the current file from a target, type `C-c . d'
(`ede-remove-file'), or or use the `Remove File' menu item in the
`Target Options' submenu.  If the file belongs to multiple targets,
this command prompts for each target it could be removed from.

   While working in a project, if you visit a file that is not part of
an existing target, EDE automatically prompts for a target.  If you do
not wish to add the file to any target, you can choose `none'.  You can
customize this behavior with the variable `ede-auto-add-method'.


File: ede,  Node: Customize Features,  Next: EDE Project Features,  Prev: Add/Remove files,  Up: Modifying your project

4.3 Customize Features
======================

A project, and its targets, are objects using the `EIEIO' object
system.  *Note Top: (eieio)Top.  These objects have data fields
containing important information related to your work.

   If the high-level functions aren't enough, you can tweak all
user-customizable fields at any time by running the command
`customize-project' or `customize-target'.  This loads the current
project or target into a customization buffer, where you can tweak
individual slots.  This is usually necessary for complex projects.

   Some project modes do not have a project file, but directly read a
Makefile or other existing file.  Instead of directly editing the
object, you can edit the file by typine `C-c . e'
(`ede-edit-file-target').  You should "rescan" the project afterwards
(*note Miscellaneous commands::).


File: ede,  Node: EDE Project Features,  Prev: Customize Features,  Up: Modifying your project

4.4 EDE Project Features
========================

This section details user facing features of an EDE `Make' style
project.  An `Automake' project has similar options (but a direct
Automake project does not).

   To modify any of the specific features mentioned here, you need to
customize the project or target with `customize-project' or
`customize-target'.

   When you are customizing, you are directly manipulating slot values
in EIEIO objects.  *Note Extending EDE::, if you are interested in
additional details.

* Menu:

* Changing Compilers and Flags::
* Configurations::


File: ede,  Node: Changing Compilers and Flags,  Next: Configurations,  Prev: EDE Project Features,  Up: EDE Project Features

4.4.1 Changing Compilers and Flags
----------------------------------

Targets that build stuff need compilers.  To change compilers, you need
to customize the desired target.

   In the `[Make]' section, you can choose a new compiler or linker
from the list.  If a linker you need is not available, you will need to
create a new one.  *Note Compiler and Linker objects::.

   If an existing compiler or linker is close, but you need to modify
some flag set such as adding an include path you will need to add a
configuration variable.

   To start, you should create the basic setup, and construct a makefile
with `ede-proj-regenerate'.  Look in the `Makefile' to see what
commands are inserted.  Once you have determined the variable you need
to modify, you can add a configuration for it.  *Note Configurations::.


File: ede,  Node: Configurations,  Prev: Changing Compilers and Flags,  Up: EDE Project Features

4.4.2 Configurations
--------------------

Configurations specify different ways to build a project.  For example,
you may configure a project to be in "debug" mode, or perhaps in
"release" mode.

   The project, and each target type all have a slot named
`configuration-variables'.  To add new variables to a configuration
find this slot in the custom buffer, and insert a new configuration.
Name it either "debug" or "release", then insert some number of
name/value pairs to it.

   You can have any number of valid configurations too.  To add a new
configuration, customize your project.  Work in the `[Settings]' block
for "configurations".  Add a new named configuration here.

   To switch between different active configurations, modify the
"configuration default" slot.


File: ede,  Node: Building and Debugging,  Next: Miscellaneous commands,  Prev: Modifying your project,  Up: Top

5 Building and Debugging
************************

EDE provides the following "project-aware" compilation and debugging
commands:

`C-c . c'
     Compile the current target (`ede-compile-target').

`C-c . C'
     Compile the entire project (`ede-compile-project').

`c-c . D'
     Debug the current target (`ede-debug-target').

`M-x ede-make-dist'
     Build a distribution file for your project.

   These commands are also available from the `Development' menu.


File: ede,  Node: Miscellaneous commands,  Next: Simple projects,  Prev: Building and Debugging,  Up: Top

6 Miscellaneous commands
************************

If you opt to go in and edit EDE project files directly--for instance,
by using `C-c . e' (*note Customize Features::)--you must then "rescan"
the project files to update the internal data structures.  To rescan
the current project, type `C-c . g' (`ede-rescan-toplevel').

   EDE can help you find files in your project, via the command `C-c .
f' (`ede-find-file').  This prompts for a file name; you need not
specify the directory.  EDE then tries to visit a file with that name
somewhere in your project.

   EDE can use external tools to help with file finding.  To do this,
customize `ede-locate-setup-options'.

 -- Variable: ede-locate-setup-options
     List of locate objects to try out by default.  Listed in order of
     preference.  If the first item cannot be used in a particular
     project, then the next one is tried.  It is always assumed that
     "ede-locate-base" is at end of the list.

   EDE also provides a project display mode for the speedbar (*note
Speedbar: (emacs)Speedbar.).  This allows you to view your source files
as they are structured in your project: as a hierarchical tree, grouped
according to target.

   To activate the speedbar in this mode, type `C-c . s'
(`ede-speedbar').


File: ede,  Node: Simple projects,  Next: Extending EDE,  Prev: Miscellaneous commands,  Up: Top

6.1 Simple Projects
===================

There is a wide array of Simple projects.  The root for simple projects
is the class `ede-simple-project'.  This handles the infrastructure of
storing a .ede file if needed.

   The class `ede-simple-project' is designed to be subclassed.  Then
key EDE methods can be overridden to provide a quick wrapper over any
project.

   A second project type is `ede-cpp-root'.  This project type is
designed to be created for a directory hierarchy full of C/C++ code.
It can be configured with minimal lisp knowledge to do header file
lookup for Semantic, improving code completion performance.

* Menu:

* ede-cpp-root::        This project marks the root of a C/C++ code project.
* ede-simple subclassing:: Create your own simple project.
* ede-emacs::           A project for working with Emacs.
* ede-linux::           A project for working with Linux kernels.
* Custom Locate::       Customizing how to locate files in a simple project


File: ede,  Node: ede-cpp-root,  Next: ede-simple subclassing,  Up: Simple projects

6.1.1 ede-cpp-root
------------------

The `ede-cpp-root' project type allows you to create a single object
with no save-file in your `.emacs' file.  It allows EDE to provide the
Semantic package with the ability to find header files quickly.

   The `ede-cpp-root' class knows a few things about C++ projects, such
as the prevalence of "include" directories, and typical file-layout
stuff.  If this isn't sufficient, you can subclass
`ede-cpp-root-project' and add your own tweaks in just a few lines.
See the end of this file for an example.

   In the most basic case, add this to your `.emacs' file, modifying
appropriate bits as needed.

     (ede-cpp-root-project "SOMENAME" :file "/dir/to/some/file")

   Replace SOMENAME with whatever name you want, and the filename to an
actual file at the root of your project.  It might be a Makefile, a
README file.  Whatever.  It doesn't matter.  It's just a key to hang
the rest of EDE off of.

   The most likely reason to create this project, is to speed up
searching for includes files, or to simplify bootstrapping Semantic's
ability to find files without much user interaction.  In conjunction
with Semantic completion, having a short include path is key.  You can
override the default include path and system include path like this:

     (ede-cpp-root-project "NAME" :file "FILENAME"
         :include-path '( "/include" "../include" "/c/include" )
         :system-include-path '( "/usr/include/c++/3.2.2/" )
         :spp-table '( ("MOOSE" . "")
                       ("CONST" . "const") ) )

   In this case each item in the include path list is searched.  If the
directory starts with "/", then that expands to the project root
directory.  If a directory does not start with "/", then it is relative
to the default-directory of the current buffer when the file name is
expanded.

   The include path only affects C/C++ header files.  Use the slot
`:header-match-regexp' to change it.

   The `:system-include-path' allows you to specify full directory
names to include directories where system header files can be found.
These will be applied to files in this project only.

   The `:spp-table' provides a list of project specific #define style
macros that are unique to this project, passed in to the compiler on
the command line, or are in special headers.  See the
`semantic-lex-c-preprocessor-symbol-map' for more on how to format this
entry.

   If there is a single file in your project, you can instead set the
`:spp-files' to a list of file names relative to the root of your
project.  Specifying this is like setting the variable
`semantic-lex-c-preprocessor-symbol-file' in semantic.

   If you want to override the file-finding tool with your own function
you can do this:

     (ede-cpp-root-project "NAME" :file "FILENAME" :locate-fcn 'MYFCN)

   Where MYFCN is a symbol for a function.  The locate function can be
used in place of `ede-expand-filename' so you can quickly customize
your custom target to use specialized local routines instead of the
default EDE routines.  The function symbol must take two arguments:

NAME
     The name of the file to find.

DIR
     The directory root for this cpp-root project.

   If the cpp-root project style is right for you, but you want a
dynamic loader, instead of hard-coding path name values in your
`.emacs', you can do that too, but you will need to write some lisp
code.

   To do that, you need to add an entry to the
`ede-project-class-files' list, and also provide two functions to teach
EDE how to load your project pattern

   It would look like this:

     (defun MY-FILE-FOR-DIR (&optional dir)
       "Return a full file name to the project file stored in DIR."
       <write your code here, or return nil>
       )

     (defun MY-ROOT-FCN ()
       "Return the root fcn for `default-directory'"
       ;; You might be able to use `ede-cpp-root-project-root'
       ;; and not write this at all.
       )

     (defun MY-LOAD (dir)
       "Load a project of type `cpp-root' for the directory DIR.
     Return nil if there isn't one."
       ;; Use your preferred constructin method here.
       (ede-cpp-root-project "NAME" :file (expand-file-name "FILE" dir)
                                    :locate-fcn 'MYFCN)
       )

     (add-to-list 'ede-project-class-files
                  (ede-project-autoload "cpp-root"
                   :name "CPP ROOT"
                   :file 'ede-cpp-root
                   :proj-file 'MY-FILE-FOR-DIR
                   :proj-root 'MY-ROOT-FCN
                   :load-type 'MY-LOAD
                   :class-sym 'ede-cpp-root)
                  t)

   This example only creates an auto-loader, and does not create a new
kind of project.

   *Note ede-cpp-root-project::, for details about the class that
defines the `ede-cpp-root' project type.

6.1.2 ede-simple Subclassing
----------------------------

todo - Write some doc.

   In the meantime look in the commentary of ede-simple.el


File: ede,  Node: ede-emacs,  Next: ede-linux,  Prev: ede-simple subclassing,  Up: Simple projects

6.1.3 ede-emacs
---------------

The `ede-emacs' project automatically identifies an Emacs source tree,
and enables EDE project mode for it.

   It pre-populates the C Preprocessor symbol map for correct parsing,
and has an optimized include file identification function.


File: ede,  Node: ede-linux,  Next: Custom Locate,  Prev: ede-emacs,  Up: Simple projects

6.1.4 ede-linux
---------------

The `ede-linux' project will automatically identify a Linux Kernel
source tree, and enable EDE project mode for it.

   It pre-populates the C Preprocessor symbol map for reasonable
parsing, and has an optimized include file identification function.


File: ede,  Node: Custom Locate,  Prev: ede-linux,  Up: Simple projects

6.1.5 Custom Locate
-------------------

The various simple project styles all have one major drawback, which is
that the files in the project are not completely known to EDE.  When
the EDE API is used to try and file files by some reference name in the
project, then that could fail.

   @TODO - Add ID Utils and CScope examples

   EDE can therefore use some external locate commands, such as the unix
"locate" command, or "GNU Global".

   Configuration of the tool you want to use such as `locate', or
`global' will need to be done without the aid of EDE.  Once configured,
however, EDE can use it.

   To enable one of these tools, set the variable
`ede-locate-setup-options' with the names of different locate objects.
*Note Miscellaneous commands::.

   Configure this in your `.emacs' before loading in CEDET or EDE.  If
you want to add support for GNU Global, your configuration would look
like this:

     (setq ede-locate-setup-options '(ede-locate-global ede-locate-base))

   That way, when a search needs to be done, it will first try using
GLOBAL.  If global is not available for that directory, then it will
revert to the base locate object.  The base object always fails to find
a file.

   You can add your own locate tool but subclassing from
`ede-locate-base'.  The subclass should also implement two methods.
See the code in `ede-locate.el' for GNU Global as a simple example.

7 Extending EDE
***************

This chapter is intended for users who want to write new parts or fix
bugs in EDE.  A knowledge of Emacs Lisp, and some EIEIO(CLOS) is
required.

   EDE uses EIEIO, the CLOS package for Emacs, to define two object
superclasses, specifically the PROJECT and TARGET.  All commands in EDE
are usually meant to address the current project, or current target.

   All specific projects in EDE derive subclasses of the EDE
superclasses.  In this way, specific behaviors such as how a project is
saved, or how a target is compiled can be customized by a project
author in detail.  EDE communicates to these project objects via an API
using methods.  The commands you use in EDE mode are high-level
functional wrappers over these methods.  *Note (eieio)Top::. For
details on using EIEIO to extending classes, and writing methods.

   If you intend to extend EDE, it is most likely that a new target
type is needed in one of the existing project types.  The rest of this
chapter will discuss extending the `ede-project' class, and it's
targets.  See `project-am.el' for basic details on adding targets to it.

   For the `ede-project' type, the core target class is called
`ede-proj-target'.  Inheriting from this will give you everything you
need to start, including adding your sources into the makefile.  If you
also need additional rules in the makefile, you will want to inherit
from `ede-proj-target-makefile' instead.  You may want to also add new
fields to track important information.

   If you are building currently unsupported code into a program or
shared library, it is unlikely you need a new target at all.  Instead
you would need to create a new compiler or linker object that compiles
source code of the desired type. *Note Compiler and Linker objects::.

   Once your new class exists, you will want to fill in some basic
methods.  See the `ede-skel.el' file for examples of these.  The files
`ede-proj-info.el' and `ede-proj-elisp.el' are two interesting examples.

File: ede,  Node: User interface methods,  Next: Base project methods,  Up: Extending EDE

7.1 User interface methods
==========================

These methods are core behaviors associated with user commands.  If you
do not implement a method, there is a reasonable default that may do
what you need.

`project-add-file'
     Add a file to your project.  Override this if you want to put new
     sources into different fields depending on extension, or other
     details.

`project-remove-file'
     Reverse of project-add-file.

`project-compile-target'
     Override this if you want to do something special when the user
     "compiles" this target.

`project-debug-target'
     What to do when a user wants to debug your target.

`project-update-version'
     Easily update the version number of your project.

`project-edit-file-target'
     Edit the file the project's information is stored in.

`project-new-target'
     Create a new target in a project.

`project-delete-target'

7.2 Base project methods
========================

These methods are important for querying base information from project
and target types:

`ede-name'
     Return a string that is the name of this target.

`ede-target-name'
     Return a string that is the name of the target used by a Make
     system.

`ede-description'
     A brief description of the project or target.  This is currently
     used by the `ede-speedbar' interface.

`ede-want-file-p'
     Return non-nil if a target will accept a given file.  It is
     generally unecessary to override this.  See the section on source
     code.

`ede-buffer-mine'
     Return non-nil if a buffer belongs to this target.  Used during
     association when a file is loaded.  It is generally unecessary to
     override this unless you keep auxiliary files.

   These methods are used by the semantic package extensions *Note
(semantic)Top::.

`ede-buffer-header-file'
     Return a header file belonging to a given buffer.  Prototypes are
     place there when appropriate

`ede-buffer-documentation-files'
     Return the documentation file information about this file would be
     stored in.

`ede-documentation'
     List all documentation a project or target is responsible for.

7.3 Sourcecode objects
======================

EDE projects track source file / target associates via source code
objects.  The definitions for this is in `ede-source.el'.  A source
code object contains methods that know how to identify a file as being
of that class, (ie, a C file ends with `.c').  Some targets can handle
many different types of sources which must all be compiled together.
For example, a mixed C and C++ program would have instantiations of
both sourcecode types.

   When a target needs to know if it will accept a source file, it
references its list of source code objects.  These objects then make
that decision.

   Source code objects are stored in the target objects as a list of
symbols, where the symbol's value is the object.  This enables the
project save file mechanism to work.

   Here is an example for an instantiation of an Emacs Lisp source code
object:

     (defvar ede-source-emacs
       (ede-sourcecode "ede-emacs-source"
                       :name "Emacs Lisp"
                       :sourcepattern "\\.el$"
                       :garbagepattern '("*.elc"))
       "Emacs Lisp source code definition.")

   If you want to recycle parts of an existing sourcecode object, you
can clone the original, and then just tweak the parts that are
different.  For example:

     (defvar ede-source-emacs-autoload
       (clone ede-source-emacs "ede-source-emacs-autoload"
              :name "Emacs Lisp Autoload"
              :sourcepattern "-loaddefs\\.el")
       "Emacs Lisp autoload source code.")

   In this case, the garbage pattern is the same.

   *Note Sourcecode::.


File: ede,  Node: Compiler and Linker objects,  Next: Project,  Prev: Sourcecode objects,  Up: Extending EDE

7.4 Compiler and Linker objects
===============================

In order for a target to create a `Makefile', it must know how to
compile the sources into the program or desired data file, and possibly
link them together.

   A compiler object instantiation is used to associate a given target
with a given source code type.  Some targets can handle many types of
sources, and thus has many compilers available to it.  Some targets may
have multiple compilers for a given type of source code.

   EDE will examine the actual source files in a target, cross reference
that against the compiler list to come up with the final set of
compilers that will be inserted into the Makefile.

   Compiler instantiations must also insert variables specifying the
compiler it plans to use, in addition to creating Automake settings for
`configure.in' when appropriate.

   Compiler objects are stored in the target objects as a list of
symbols, where the symbols value is the object.  This enables the
project output mechanism to work more efficiently.

   Targets will also have a special "compiler" slot which lets a user
explicitly choose the compiler they want to use.

   Here is an example for texinfo:

     (defvar ede-makeinfo-compiler
       (ede-compiler
        "ede-makeinfo-compiler"
        :name "makeinfo"
        :variables '(("MAKEINFO" . "makeinfo"))
        :commands '("makeinfo -o $ $<")
        :autoconf '(("AC_CHECK_PROG" . "MAKEINFO, makeinfo"))
        :sourcetype '(ede-makeinfo-source)
        )
       "Compile texinfo files into info files.")

   *Note Compilers::.

   When creating compiler instantiations, it may be useful to `clone'
an existing compiler variable.  Cloning allows you to only modify parts
of the original, while keeping the rest of the same.  Modification of
the original will result in the clone also being changed for shared
value slots.

   The second important object is the linker class.  The linker is
similar to the compiler, except several compilers might be used to
create some object files, and only one linker is used to link those
objects together.

   See `ede-proj-obj.el' for examples of the combination.

This class implements the `ede-cpp-root' project type.  *Note
ede-cpp-root::, for information about using this project type.

Slots:

    `:include-path'
          Type: `list'
          Default Value: `(quote ("/include" "../include/"))'

          The default locate function expands filenames within a
          project.  If a header file (.h, .hh, etc) name is expanded,
          and the `:locate-fcn' slot is `nil', then the include path is
          checked first, and other directories are ignored.  For very
          large projects, this optimization can save a lot of time.

          Directory names in the path can be relative to the current
          buffer's `default-directory' (not starting with a /).
          Directories that are relative to the project's root should
          start with a /, such as  "/include", meaning the directory
          `include' off the project root directory.

    `:system-include-path'
          Type: `list'
          Default Value: `nil'

          The system include path for files in this project.  C files
          initialized in an ede-cpp-root-project have their semantic
          system include path set to this value.  If this is `nil',
          then the semantic path is not modified.

    `:spp-table'
          Type: `list'
          Default Value: `nil'

          C Preprocessor macros for your files.  Preprocessor symbols
          will be used while parsing your files.  These macros might be
          passed in through the command line compiler, or are critical
          symbols derived from header files.  Providing header files
          macro values through this slot improves accuracy and
          performance.  Use `:spp-files' to use these files directly.

    `:spp-files'
          Type: `list'
          Default Value: `nil'

          C header file with Preprocessor macros for your files.  The
          PreProcessor symbols appearing in these files will be used
          while parsing files in this project.  See
          `semantic-lex-c-preprocessor-symbol-map' for more on how this
          works.

    `:header-match-regexp'
          Type: `string'
          Default Value:
          `"\\.\\(h\\(h\\|xx\\|pp\\|\\+\\+\\)?\\|H\\)$\\|\\<\\w+$"'

          Regexp used to identify C/C++ header files.

    `:locate-fcn'
          Type: `(or null function)'
          Default Value: `nil'

          The locate function can be used in place of
          "ede-expand-filename" so you can quickly customize your
          custom target to use specialized local routines instead of
          the EDE routines.  The function symbol must take two
          arguments:   NAME - The name of the file to find.    DIR -
          The directory root for this cpp-root project.

          It should return the fully qualified file name passed in from
          NAME.  If that file does not exist, it should return nil.

          'Makefile.in, or 'Makefile.am.  If this value is NOT
          `'Makefile', then that overrides the `:makefile' slot in
          targets.

    `:variables'
          Type: `list'
          Default Value: `nil'

          Variables to set in this Makefile.

    `:configuration-variables'
          Type: `list'
          Default Value: `("debug" (("DEBUG" . "1")))'

          Makefile variables to use in different configurations.  These
          variables are used in the makefile when a configuration
          becomes active.

    `:inference-rules
          '
          Default Value: `nil'

          Inference rules to add to the makefile.

          is determined by a parent project.  If multiple top level
          projects are grouped into a large project not maintained by
          EDE, then you need to set this to non-nil.  The only effect
          is that the `dist' rule will then avoid making a tar file.

          The parent of this instance.  If a slot of this class is
          reference, and is unbound, then  the parent is checked for a
          value.

    `:name'
          Type: `string'

          Name of this type of compiler.

    `:variables'
          Type: `list'

          Variables needed in the Makefile for this compiler.  An assoc
          list where each element is (VARNAME . VALUE) where VARNAME is
          a string, and VALUE is either a string, or a list of strings.
          For example, GCC would define CC=gcc, and emacs would define
          EMACS=emacs.

          with the compilers and linkers they can use, and which files
          this object is interested in.

    `:rules'
          Type: `list'
          Default Value: `nil'

          Auxiliary rules needed for this compiler to run.  For
          example, yacc/lex files need additional chain rules, or
          inferences.

    `:commands'
          Type: `list'

          The commands used to execute this compiler.  The object which

          definition.

    `:autoconf'
          Type: `list'
          Default Value: `nil'

          Autoconf function to call if this type of compiler is used.
          When a project is in Automake mode, this defines the autoconf
          function to call to initialize automake to use this compiler.
          For example, there may be multiple C compilers, but they all
          probably use the same autoconf form.

    `:objectextention'
          Type: `string'

          A string which is the extention used for object files.  For
          example, C code uses .o on unix, and Emacs Lisp uses .elc.
