.TH tdfc2 1

.SH NAME

tdfc2 \- C to TDF/ANDF producer

.SH SYNOPSIS

\fBtdfc2\fR [ \fIoptions\fR ] [ \fIinput-file\fR ] [ \fIoutput-file\fR ]

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.SH DESCRIPTION

In its default action, \fBtdfc2\fR translates the input C source

file, \fIinput-file\fR, into a TDF/ANDF capsule, \fIoutput-file\fR.  If

the output file name is omitted or is \fB-\fR, the standard output is used.

If the input file name is omitted or is \fB-\fR, the standard input is

used.

.PP

By use of the \fB-s\fIspec-file\fR option, \fBtdfc2\fR can additionally

be made to output a C spec file which contains information enabling

intermodule analysis to be performed.  Alternatively usage and error

information suitable for processing by other tools can be output using

the \fB-d\fIopt\fB=\fIdump-file\fR option.

.PP

\fBtdfc2\fR also has a preprocessing action, when invoked with the

\fB-E\fR option, in which the input C source file, \fIinput-file\fR,

is preprocessed to an output file, \fIouput-file\fR.

.PP

Finally \fBtdfc2\fR has a spec linker action, when invoked with the

\fB-S\fR option, in which any number of spec input files, \fIinput-file\fR,

are combined into a spec output file, which may be specified using the

\fB-s\fR option.  Any extra code generation resulting from this linking

phase is written to the TDF capsule, \fIoutput-file\fR.

.PP

It is recommended that \fBtdfc2\fR is invoked via \fItcc\fR(1).

The \fB-Yc++\fR option is required to enable the C++ capabilities.

Files with a \fB.c\fR suffix are recognised as C source files.

Options can be passed directly to \fBtdfc2\fR using the

\fB-Wc,\fIopt\fR option to \fItcc\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.SH OPTIONS

.PP

The command-line options can appear in any order and can be interspersed

with the input and output files.  All the multi-part options can be

given either as one or two command-line arguments, so that \fB-I\fIdir\fR

and \fB-I\fR \fIdir\fR are equivalent.  Most of the option handling

required is handled by \fItcc\fR(1) when this is being used, but

options may be passed directly to \fBtdfc2\fR using the \fB-Wc,\fIopt\fR

option.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-A\fIpredicate\fB(\fItokens\fB)\fR

Asserts that the given predicate is true.  The special case \fB-A-\fR

undefines all the built-in predicates (of which there are none).

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-D\fImacro\fR

Defines the given macro to be 1.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-D\fImacro\fB=\fItokens\fR

Defines the given macro to be the given sequence of preprocessing tokens.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-E\fR

Enables preprocessing mode in which the input C source file is

preprocessed into the output file.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-F\fIfile\fR

Causes a list of options to be read from \fIfile\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-H\fR

Enables verbose inclusion mode in which warnings are printed at the

start and the end of each included source file.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-I\fIdirectory\fR

Adds the given directory to the list searched by \fBtdfc2\fR for

included source files.  No such directories are built into \fBtdfc2\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-N\fIname\fB:\fIdirectory\fR

Is identical to \fB-I\fIdirectory\fR except that it also associates the

given identifier with the directory.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-S\fR

Enables spec linker mode in which any number of C spec input files are

linked into a single C spec output file.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-U\fImacro\fR

Undefines the given macro.  The special case \fB-U-\fR undefines all the

built-in macros.  These are \fB__FILE__\fR, \fB__LINE__\fR,

\fB__TIME__\fR, \fB__DATE__\fR, \fB__STDC__\fR and \fB__STDC_VERSION__\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-V\fR

Causes \fBtdfc2\fR to print the name of each function to the standard

output as it is compiled.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-W\fIoption\fR

Causes \fBtdfc2\fR to print a warning in the circumstances described

by \fIoption\fR.  The special case \fB-Wall\fR enables a wide range of

warnings.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-X\fR

Disables exception handling.  The current implementation can be a large

run-time overhead if not required.  The effect of linking any module

compiled with this option with a module which throws an exception is

undefined.  This is equivalent to \fB-j-e\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-Z\fInumber\fR

Sets the maximum number of errors printed by \fBtdfc2\fR before

bailing out to be \fInumber\fR.  The default is 32.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-a\fR

Causes \fBtdfc2\fR to apply complete program analysis to its input

files.  That is it assumes that no other translation units need to be

linked in order for the program to execute.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-c\fR

Disables TDF output.  The output file will still be a valid TDF capsule,

only it will contain no information.  This is equivalent to \fB-j-c\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-d\fIopt\fB=\fIdump-file\fR

Causes \fBtdfc2\fR to dump information about its input file into

\fIdump-file\fR.  \fIopt\fR is a series of characters describing the

information to be dumped; \fBc\fR for string literals, \fBe\fR for errors,

\fBh\fR for header files, \fBk\fR for keywords, \fBl\fR for local variables,

\fBm\fR for macros, \fBs\fR for scopes, and \fBu\fR for usage.  \fBa\fR is

equivalent to \fBehlmu\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-e\fIfile\fR

Specifies the given file as an end-up file.  This is equivalent to

adding a \fB#include\fR directive for this file at the end of the input

source file.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-f\fIfile\fR

Specifies the given file as a start-up file.  This is equivalent to

adding a \fB#include\fR directive for this file at the start of the input

source file.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-g\fR

Specifies that the output TDF capsule should also contain information

to allow for the generation of run-time debugging directives.  This

is equivalent to \fB-jg\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-h\fR

Causes \fBtdfc2\fR to print a full list of its available command-line

options.  This includes a number not documented here which are unlikely

to prove useful to the normal user.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-j\fIopt\fR

Sets the TDF output options given by \fIopt\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-m\fIopt\fR

Sets the error formatting options given by \fIopt\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-n\fIport-table\fR

Specifies that the given portability table should be used to specify

the basic configuration parameters.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-o\fIoutput-file\fR

Gives an alternative method of specifying the output file.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-q\fR

Causes \fBtdfc2\fR to quit immediately without processing its input

file.  This is useful primarily in version and option queries.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-s\fIspec-file\fR

Causes \fBtdfc2\fR to write a C spec file describing the input source

file to \fIspec-file\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-t\fR

Specifies that \fBtdfc2\fR should include token declarations in its

output TDF capsule.  While these are strictly unnecessary, they help when

pretty-printing the output.  This is equivalent to \fB-jt\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-u\fI\ name\ ...\ name\fR

Causes \fBtdfc2\fR to print the unmangle forms of the given mangled

identifier names.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-v\fR

Causes \fBtdfc2\fR to print its version number.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-w\fR

Disables all warning messages.  This is equivalent to \fB-mw\fR.

.\" ----------------------------------------------------------------------

.IP \fB-z\fR

Forces \fBtdfc2\fR to produce an output file even if compilation errors

occur.  The effect of installing a TDF capsule produced using this option

is undefined.  This is equivalent to \fB-mz\fR.
