NAMEbuildflags.conf —
set build options for
ports(7),
world and everything
DESCRIPTIONThebuildflags.conf file is used by
buildflags.mk(1)
to configure
make(1)
jobs.
The intended way to use it is to add the following lines to make.conf(5). .sinclude "/usr/local/share/bsdadminscripts2/buildflags.mk" SYNTAXAbuildflags.conf file gets parsed into a make file. If
you want to make sure that your syntax is right you can do so by running:
/usr/local/share/bsdadminscripts2/buildflags.awk buildflags.conf | less The comments, locations, knobs and variables COMMENTSComments are everything behind a '#'. The only exception is a '#' within a '"' block.# This is a comment. LOCATIONSA location is a folder in which a make job runs. Locations make it possible to limit assignments only to certain ports or other build systems.A location consists of a path and/or a pattern. The difference between a path and a pattern is that the pattern will remain untouched and a path will be resolved as far as possible. Resolving a path means that a path will be substituted with its physical path. Several locations can be connected with '&' (logical and) and '|' (logical or). If e.g. '/usr/ports' is a link to '/mnt/vault/ports' a location like '/usr/ports/x11*' will be resolved into '/mnt/vault/ports/x11*'. In this case '/usr/ports' is the path and '/x11*' the pattern. Every location is followed by a block that can contain comments, knobs, variables and other locations. A block is opened with the character '{' and closed with '}'. Here is an example: /usr/ports/* & !*/work/*{ WITH_IPV6 */x11/toolkits-gtk20 {WITHOUT_DEBUG} } KNOBSA knob really is a variable with a default assignment:WITH_DEBUG !CPUTYPE This example would set 'WITH_DEBUG=yes' and undefine 'CPUTYPE'. You can have several knobs in a single line: WITH_DEBUG !CPUTYPE VARIABLESAssigning variables is simply done with an '=' other ways of assignment known from make(1) like '?=', ':=' or '!=' can also be used. There may not be spaces in front of a '='.If the '=' is followed by spaces. The whole trailing line will be assigned as the value, unless the first character is a '"'. Values may not contain a '"'. If the value is right behind the '=' only one word will be assigned, the next word will be treated as a knob or variable. Here are some examples of valid assignments: CPUTYPE?="pentium-m" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" THREADS=5 SUPFLAGS= -E -g -L 2 -z DIRECTIVESNative make(1) directives can be included. Apart from putting trailing comments in front of them and removing preceding spaces they are not changed. Make directives begin with a '.', among them are '.if', '.include' and '.for'.The following is a valid example: /usr/ports/* { .if defined(WANT_I386) CFLAGS+= -m32 LDCONFIG+= -32 .endif } WARNINGSThere are things that should not be done.WRKDIRPREFIXDo not set the WRKDIRPREFIX directive inbuildflags.conf . Doing so would break updating of
bsdadminscripts(1)
in the FreeBSD
ports(7)
collection.
