FIPS tools explained
|
||
|
|
====================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
api_list.pl
|
||
|
|
a script to produce an API description, saying what parameters are
|
||
|
|
for input, output or both.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Most often, the direction of a parameter is determined automatically.
|
||
|
|
However, quite a number of them are educated guesses. Either way,
|
||
|
|
the information is stored in the file declarations.dat in this
|
||
|
|
directory, and can be manually corrected; simply go through
|
||
|
|
declarations.dat, look for any value with the key 'direction'
|
||
|
|
where the value contains a question mark. Those should be changed
|
||
|
|
to whatever is true, and the values should be one of the
|
||
|
|
following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<- output
|
||
|
|
-> input
|
||
|
|
<-> both
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
api_fns.pm
|
||
|
|
a module that helps api_list.pl do its job.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
declarations.dat
|
||
|
|
a file of information about public fips symbols. See api_list.pl
|
||
|
|
above.
