NAME

Clownfish::File - Structured representation of the contents of a Clownfish source file.

DESCRIPTION

An abstraction representing a file which contains Clownfish code.

METHODS

new

my $file_obj = Clownfish::File->new(
    blocks       => \@blocks,                 # required
    source_class => 'Crustacean::Lobster',    # required
    parcel       => 'Crustacean',             # default: special
);
  • blocks - An arrayref. Each element must be either a Clownfish::Class, a Clownfish::Parcel, or a Clownfish::CBlock.

  • source_class - The class name associated with the source file, regardless of how what classes are defined in the source file. Example: If source_class is "Foo::Bar", that implies that the source file could be found at 'Foo/Bar.cfh' within the source directory and that the output C header file should be 'Foo/Bar.h' within the target include directory.

  • parcel - A Clownfish::Parcel or parcel name.

blocks

my @blocks = $file->blocks;

Return all blocks as a list.

classes

my @classes = $file->classes;

Return all Clownfish::Class blocks from the file as a list.

get_modified set_modified

Accessors for the file's "modified" property, which is initially false.

get_source_class

Accessor.

c_path h_path cfh_path

# '/path/to/Source/Class.c', etc.
my $c_path   = $file->c_path('/path/to');
my $h_path   = $file->h_path('/path/to');
my $cfh_path = $file->cfh_path('/path/to');

Given a base directory, return a path name derived from the File's source_class with the specified extension.

guard_name

# e.g. "H_CRUSTACEAN_LOBSTER"
my $guard_name = $file->guard_name

Return a string used for an include guard in a C header, unique per file.

guard_start

Return a string opening the include guard.

guard_close

Return a string closing the include guard. Other classes count on being able to match this string.
