Function Documentation

void rpmFreeRpmrc

(

void

)

Destroy rpmrc arch/os compatibility tables.

Todo:

Eliminate from API.

Referenced by build(), and main().

void rpmGetArchInfo	(	const char **	name,
		int *	num
	)

Return current arch name and/or number.

Todo:

Generalize to extract arch component from target_platform macro.

Return values:

	name	address of arch name (or NULL)
	num	address of arch number (or NULL)

void rpmGetOsInfo	(	const char **	name,
		int *	num
	)

Return current os name and/or number.

Todo:

Generalize to extract os component from target_platform macro.

Return values:

	name	address of os name (or NULL)
	num	address of os number (or NULL)

int rpmMachineScore	(	int	type,
		const char *	name
	)

Return arch/os score of a name.

An arch/os score measures the "nearness" of a name to the currently running (or defined) platform arch/os. For example, the score of arch "i586" on an i686 platform is (usually) 2. The arch/os score is used to select one of several otherwise identical packages using the arch/os tags from the header as hints of the intended platform for the package.

Todo:

Rewrite to use RE's against config.guess target platform output.

Parameters:

	type	any of the RPM_MACHTABLE_* constants
	name	name

Returns:

arch score (0 is no match, lower is preferred)

int rpmReadConfigFiles	(	const char *	file,
		const char *	target
	)

Read macro configuration file(s) for a target.

Parameters:

	file	colon separated files to read (NULL uses default)
	target	target platform (NULL uses default)

Returns:

0 on success, -1 on error

Referenced by build(), and main().

void rpmSetTables	(	int	archTable,
		int	osTable
	)

Deprecated:

Use addMacro to set _target_* macros.

Todo:

Eliminate from API. #

Note:

Only used by build code.

Parameters:

	archTable
	osTable

Referenced by buildForTarget().

int rpmShowRC

(

FILE *

fp

)

Display current rpmrc (and macro) configuration.

Parameters:

fp

output file handle

Returns:

0 always

Variable Documentation

const char* macrofiles

List of macro files to read when configuring rpm.

This is a colon separated list of files. URI's are permitted as well, identified by the token '://', so file paths must not begin with '//'.
