The hpp
Executable
hpp
is a Haskell pre-processor that is also a C90-compatible
pre-processor (with the addition of a --cpp
flag). It is
packaged as both a library and an executable.
To use as a Haskell preprocessor for resolving #ifdef
conditionals
and macro expansion, an invocation might look like,
hpp -DDEBUG Foo.hs
To use as a C preprocessor, an invocation might look like,
hpp -DDEBUG --cpp foo.c
To have GHC use hpp
as the C pre-processor, add this line to the top
of a Haskell source file that makes use of the CPP
LANGUAGE
pragma,
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -cpp -pgmPhpp #-}
Or add this line to your .cabal
file:
ghc-options: -pgmPhpp
Note that you will need to ensure that the hpp
executable is available in your build environment (e.g. you can add hpp
as a build-depends
in your .cabal
file).
The hpp
Library
The hpp
executable is a command-line interface to the hpp
library. While the hpp
package has been designed to have minimal dependencies beyond what the GHC
compiler itself uses, it does include a few small, framework-free unit tests that demonstrate basic usage as a library. In the testIf
example, we preprocess the sourceIfdef
input with a starting definition equivalent to #define FOO 1
. In testArith1
, we exercise basic integer arithmetic and comparison. The hppHelper
function shows how to run your source input through the preprocessor: expand initialState (preproces mySource)
. If you want to support #include
ing other files, you will use runHpp
or streamHpp
that operate in IO
and support searching among a list of include paths.
