COMP-PP(7)              Demeter Software               COMP-PP(7)



NAME
     comp-pp - preprocessor in Demeter syntax  for  Demeter  type
     notations


SYNOPSIS
     _c_o_m_p-_p_p [ nosuffix ] cd current-component-name [file]
     _c_o_m_p-_p_p [ nosuffix ] cd current-component-name -p path  file
     ...
     _c_o_m_p-_p_p -help


DESCRIPTION
     There are four kinds of Demeter type notations: .I  T@@<cl>,
     T@<cl>, $T and _T.

     _c_o_m_p-_p_p transforms .I T@@<cl> to _T, _T@<_c_l> to _T_<_c_l> or _T  (
     see OPTIONS), $_T to _T.
     _c_o_m_p-_p_p transforms _T to _T_<_c_l> or _T (see OPTIONS)  if  T  is
     defined  in  _c_d and the name of the current class library is
     <_c_l>.



OPTIONS
     cd   should be notmod/cds/cd-param-exp

     nosuffix
          If _n_o_s_u_f_f_i_x is absent, _c_o_m_p-_p_p transforms _T@_E  to  _T__E,
          and  transforms  _T  to _T_<_c_l> if T is defined in _c_d and
          the name of the current class library is <_c_l>.

          If _n_o_s_u_f_f_i_x is present, _c_o_m_p-_p_p transforms  _T@_E  to  _T,
          and transforms _T to _T even _T is defined in _c_d.


     current-component-name
          name of the current environment

     -p
          path where the processed file goes to.

     file Source file to be processed.

          If option -p is not  provided,  _c_o_m_p-_p_p  can  take  one
          source  file  or the standard input. The result is pro-
          duced to the standard output.
