h2xs - convert .h C header files to Perl extensions
h2xs [-ACOPXcdf] [-v version] [-n module_name] [-p prefix] [-s sub] [headerfile ... [extra_libraries]]
h2xs -h
h2xs builds a Perl extension from C header files. The extension will include functions which can be used to retrieve the value of any #define statement which was in the C header files.
The module_name will be used for the name of the extension. If module_name is not supplied then the name of the first header file will be used, with the first character capitalized.
If the extension might need extra libraries, they should be included here. The extension Makefile.PL will take care of checking whether the libraries actually exist and how they should be loaded. The extra libraries should be specified in the form -lm -lposix, etc, just as on the cc command line. By default, the Makefile.PL will search through the library path determined by Configure. That path can be augmented by including arguments of the form -L/another/library/path in the extra-libraries argument.
Omit all autoload facilities. This is the same as -c but also removes the use AutoLoader statement from the .pm file.
Omits creation of the Changes file, and adds a HISTORY section to the POD template.
Additional flags to specify to C preprocessor when scanning header for function declarations. Should not be used without -x.
selects functions/macros to process.
Allows a pre-existing extension directory to be overwritten.
Omit the autogenerated stub POD section.
Omit the XS portion. Used to generate templates for a module which is not XS-based. -c and -f are implicitly enabled.
Generate an accessor method for each element of structs and unions. The generated methods are named after the element name; will return the current value of the element if called without additional arguments; and will set the element to the supplied value (and return the new value) if called with an additional argument. Embedded structures and unions are returned as a pointer rather than the complete structure, to facilitate chained calls.
These methods all apply to the Ptr type for the structure; additionally two methods are constructed for the structure type itself, _to_ptr which returns a Ptr type pointing to the same structure, and a new method to construct and return a new structure, initialised to zeroes.
Omit constant() from the .xs file and corresponding specialised AUTOLOAD from the .pm file.
Turn on debugging messages.
Allows an extension to be created for a header even if that header is not found in standard include directories.
Print the usage, help and version for this h2xs and exit.
For function arguments declared as const, omit the const attribute in the generated XS code.
Experimental: for each variable declared in the header file(s), declare a perl variable of the same name magically tied to the C variable.
Specifies a name to be used for the extension, e.g., -n RPC::DCE
Use "opaque" data type for the C types matched by the regular expression, even if these types are typedef-equivalent to types from typemaps. Should not be used without -x.
This may be useful since, say, types which are typedef-equivalent to integers may represent OS-related handles, and one may want to work with these handles in OO-way, as in $handle->do_something(). Use -o . if you want to handle all the typedefed types as opaque types.
The type-to-match is whitewashed (except for commas, which have no whitespace before them, and multiple * which have no whitespace between them).
Specify a prefix which should be removed from the Perl function names, e.g., -p sec_rgy_ This sets up the XS PREFIX keyword and removes the prefix from functions that are autoloaded via the constant() mechanism.
Create a perl subroutine for the specified macros rather than autoload with the constant() subroutine. These macros are assumed to have a return type of char *, e.g., -s sec_rgy_wildcard_name,sec_rgy_wildcard_sid.
Specify a version number for this extension. This version number is added to the templates. The default is 0.01.
Automatically generate XSUBs basing on function declarations in the header file. The package C::Scan should be installed. If this option is specified, the name of the header file may look like NAME1,NAME2. In this case NAME1 is used instead of the specified string, but XSUBs are emitted only for the declarations included from file NAME2.
Note that some types of arguments/return-values for functions may result in XSUB-declarations/typemap-entries which need hand-editing. Such may be objects which cannot be converted from/to a pointer (like long long), pointers to functions, or arrays. See also the section on "LIMITATIONS of -x".

The usual warnings if it cannot read or write the files involved.
h2xs would not distinguish whether an argument to a C function which is of the form, say, int *, is an input, output, or input/output parameter. In particular, argument declarations of the form
int
foo(n)
int *nshould be better rewritten as
int
foo(n)
int &nif n is an input parameter.
Additionally, h2xs has no facilities to intuit that a function
int
foo(addr,l)
char *addr
int ltakes a pair of address and length of data at this address, so it is better to rewrite this function as
int
foo(sv)
SV *addr
PREINIT:
STRLEN len;
char *s;
CODE:
s = SvPV(sv,len);
RETVAL = foo(s, len);
OUTPUT:
RETVALor alternately
static int
my_foo(SV *sv)
{
STRLEN len;
char *s = SvPV(sv,len);
return foo(s, len);
}
MODULE = foo PACKAGE = foo PREFIX = my_
int
foo(sv)
SV *svSee perlxs and perlxstut for additional details.
