- The Perforce RCS implementation
- -------------------------------
-
- An overview of the implementation is in rcstest.cc.
-
- This README discusses the ifdefs and system dependencies herein.
-
-
- ifdefs
- ------
-
- USE_CRLF - used to control whether LF or CRLF separate lines
- in RCS files. Normally set by Jamrules for NT.
-
- USE_MMAP - if set, uses the mmap() system call for read access
- to RCS files. Otherwise, uses stdio. By an large, you
- want this set if mmap is available. Normally set by
- Jamrules.
-
- HAVE_FSYNC - if set, calls fsync() before closing the RCS file
- (after writing it), so that it is sure to hit the disk.
- Set by stdhdrs.h based on what OS you're on.
-
- OS_NT - used to control some NT specific filesystem operations,
- like the different call to access() and setting O_NOINHERIT
- to keep file handles private across subprocess creation.
- (RCS formerly used an external diff but now does everything
- inprocess, and so O_NOINHERIT is unneeded. )
-
- OS_BEOS - BeOS specific interface changes.
-
- OS_MAC - Macintosh MPW specific interface changes.
-
- External Code Dependencies.
-
- support/error.h - for the Error class, a layered error reporting
- mechanism. It's used throughout, but is the only component
- of 'support' that is needed for RCS.
-
- sys/stdhdrs.h - included standard system headers needed by everything,
- plus special headers as controlled by #define NEED_XXX flags.
- The headers used are:
-
- NEED_ACCESS
- NEED_FCNTL
- NEED_FILE
- NEED_FSYNC
- NEED_MKDIR
- NEED_MMAP
- NEED_OPENDIR
- NEED_TIME
- NEED_TYPES
-
- See stdhdrs.h for what these control.
