 xref 1 "10 Feb 2006"
 NAME
 xref - build and maintain source cross-references

 SYNOPSIS
xref [-cfp] [-m <makefile>] [-x cscope|ctags|etags[,...]] [<subtree> ...]



 DESCRIPTION
 "OS-Net build tools" "xref" "" "xref" 

 xref is a simple tool for building and maintaining source cross-references for
subtrees of a workspace. By default, xref builds cscope-fast, ctags, and
etags (if available; see NOTES) source cross-references for all of the
eligible files underneath each named subtree, plus any additional eligible
files reported by flg.flp(1). File eligibility is determined by pattern
matching -- by default, files matching the following patterns are
eligible:

 *.[Ccshlxy] Makefile* *.il* *.cc *.adb llib-*

However, this default behavior can be changed, either through command-line
options or by setting the cross-reference customization macros (see
CUSTOMIZATION MACROS) in the Makefile rooted at each specified
subtree.


Any number of subtrees can be specified; if no subtrees are specified,
then the current working directory is assumed. Relative subtrees are
assumed to be relative to the current working directory.

 OPTIONS
 10
 -c Clobber (rather than build) cross-references.

 10
 -f Do not use flg.flp(1) to locate additional related files. This option is
ignored if -c is specified.


 -m makefile Use the customization macros specified in makefile when building the
cross-reference, rather than those in Makefile. If no Makefile exists
or no customizations are desired, then /dev/null may be used.

 10
 -p Remove any proto-area include directories from the include path list when
building the cross-reference. This is chiefly useful when the built
cross-reference will be shared with others that either cannot or should
not access the proto areas associated with the workspace used to construct
the cross-reference. This option is ignored if -c is specified.

 10
 -x cscope|tags|etags Operate on only the specified cross-references. More than one
cross-reference can be operated on by specifying a comma-separated list
(see EXAMPLES). By default, all supported cross-references are
operated on.

 CUSTOMIZATION MACROS
The xref tool uses a private Makefile, xref.mk, to perform the actual
construction and maintenance of each cross-reference. While the logic in
xref.mk is sufficient for most situations, some subtrees of a workspace
may require additional fine-tuning (e.g., to exclude machine-generated
source files, or to include source files with unusual filenames). To
accomodate this, xref.mk itself includes the the file named
Makefile (or the filename specified via -m) at the root of each
specified subtree. This Makefile in turn may customize the
cross-reference by setting any of the following macros:


 XRDIRS 

The list of directories to build the cross-reference over; defaults to
`.'. Directories containing source files most likely to be of interest to
those using the cross-reference should be listed earlier.




 XRPRUNE 

The list of directories to prune out.




 XRADD 

The list of additional filename patterns to include.




 XRDEL 

The list of additional filename patterns to exclude.




XRINCDIRS


The list of additional include paths, in "foo bar" format.




 XRINCS 

The list of additional include paths, in "-Ifoo -Ibar" format.



 EXAMPLES
Build cscope-fast, ctags, and etags cross-references for the subtree
rooted at the current working directory:


$ xref


Build cscope-fast, ctags, and etags cross-references for $SRC/cmd/agents:


$ xref $SRC/cmd/agents


Build just the cscope-fast cross-reference for $SRC, and do not use
flg.flp(1) (since there are no additional source files to find):


$ xref -f -x cscope $SRC


Build just the standard cscope cross-reference for $SRC/uts:


$ CSCOPE=cscope CSFLAGS=-b xref -x cscope $SRC/uts


Build a cscope database containing just the ZFS source:



$ cd $SRC
$ cat > /tmp/zfs.mk
XRDIRS=uts/common/fs/zfs common/zfs lib/libzfs cmd/zfs cmd/zpool


$ xref -f -x cscope -m /tmp/zfs.mk



 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
Because xref uses xref.mk to carry out the requested operations and
invokes make(1) with the -e option, the value of any macros used by
xref.mk can be overridden through environment variables. This is 
chiefly useful for customizing the programs used to build the cross
references; see EXAMPLES.



 SEE ALSO

 make(1),  bringover(1),  flg.flp(1) 
 NOTES
The etags utility is no longer bundled with the Sun Studio, which
means it may not be available on all developer systems. If xref cannot
locate the etags utility and the -x option has not been specified, then
xref will silently not build etags.


The ETAGS environment variable can be used to specify an alternate
path to the etags utility. For instance, to use the one packaged with
Sun Freeware, set ETAGS to /opt/sfw/bin/etags prior to invoking xref.
