The SIP Command Line
|
||
|
|
====================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The syntax of the SIP command line is::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sip [options] [specification]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``specification`` is the name of the specification file for the module. If it
|
||
|
|
is omitted then ``stdin`` is used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The full set of command line options is:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. program:: sip
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -h
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Display a help message.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -V
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Display the SIP version number.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -a <FILE>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The name of the QScintilla API file to generate. This file contains a
|
||
|
|
description of the module API in a form that the QScintilla editor
|
||
|
|
component can use for auto-completion and call tips. (The file may also be
|
||
|
|
used by the SciTE editor but must be sorted first.) By default the file is
|
||
|
|
not generated.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -b <FILE>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The name of the build file to generate. This file contains the information
|
||
|
|
about the module needed by the :ref:`SIP build system <ref-build-system>`
|
||
|
|
to generate a platform and compiler specific Makefile for the module. By
|
||
|
|
default the file is not generated.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -c <DIR>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The name of the directory (which must exist) into which all of the
|
||
|
|
generated C or C++ code is placed. By default no code is generated.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -d <FILE>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The name of the documentation file to generate. Documentation is included
|
||
|
|
in specification files using the :directive:`%Doc` and
|
||
|
|
:directive:`%ExportedDoc` directives. By default the file is not
|
||
|
|
generated.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -e
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Support for C++ exceptions is enabled. This causes all calls to C++ code
|
||
|
|
to be enclosed in ``try``/``catch`` blocks and C++ exceptions to be
|
||
|
|
converted to Python exceptions. By default exception support is disabled.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -g
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Python GIL is released before making any calls to the C/C++ library
|
||
|
|
being wrapped and reacquired afterwards. See :ref:`ref-gil` and the
|
||
|
|
:fanno:`ReleaseGIL` and :fanno:`HoldGIL` annotations.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -I <DIR>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The directory is added to the list of directories searched when looking for
|
||
|
|
a specification file given in an :directive:`%Include` or
|
||
|
|
:directive:`%Import` directive. This option may be given any number of
|
||
|
|
times.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -j <NUMBER>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The generated code is split into the given number of files. This makes it
|
||
|
|
easier to use the parallel build facility of most modern implementations of
|
||
|
|
``make``. By default 1 file is generated for each C structure or C++
|
||
|
|
class.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -k
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. versionadded:: 4.10
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All functions and methods will, by default, support passing parameters
|
||
|
|
using the Python keyword argument syntax.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -o
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. versionadded:: 4.10
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Docstrings will be automatically generated that describe the signature of
|
||
|
|
all functions, methods and constructors.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -p <MODULE>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The name of the :directive:`%ConsolidatedModule` which will contain the
|
||
|
|
wrapper code for this component module.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -P
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. versionadded:: 4.10
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By default SIP generates code to provide access to protected C++ functions
|
||
|
|
from Python. On some platforms (notably Linux, but not Windows) this code
|
||
|
|
can be avoided if the ``protected`` keyword is redefined as ``public``
|
||
|
|
during compilation. This can result in a significant reduction in the size
|
||
|
|
of a generated Python module. This option disables the generation of the
|
||
|
|
extra code.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -r
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Debugging statements that trace the execution of the bindings are
|
||
|
|
automatically generated. By default the statements are not generated.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -s <SUFFIX>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The suffix to use for generated C or C++ source files. By default ``.c``
|
||
|
|
is used for C and ``.cpp`` for C++.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -t <TAG>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The SIP version tag (declared using a :directive:`%Timeline` directive) or
|
||
|
|
the SIP platform tag (declared using the :directive:`%Platforms` directive)
|
||
|
|
to generate code for. This option may be given any number of times so long
|
||
|
|
as the tags do not conflict.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -w
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The display of warning messages is enabled. By default warning messages
|
||
|
|
are disabled.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -x <FEATURE>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The feature (declared using the :directive:`%Feature` directive) is
|
||
|
|
disabled.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. cmdoption:: -z <FILE>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The name of a file containing more command line options.
