2libpkgconf `fragment` module
3============================
4
5The `fragment` module provides low-level management and rendering of fragment lists.  A
6`fragment list` contains various `fragments` of text (such as ``-I /usr/include``) in a matter
7which is composable, mergeable and reorderable.
8
9.. c:function:: void pkgconf_fragment_add(const pkgconf_client_t *client, pkgconf_list_t *list, const char *string, unsigned int flags)
10
11   Adds a `fragment` of text to a `fragment list`, possibly modifying the fragment if a sysroot is set.
12
13   :param pkgconf_client_t* client: The pkgconf client being accessed.
14   :param pkgconf_list_t* list: The fragment list.
15   :param char* string: The string of text to add as a fragment to the fragment list.
16   :param uint flags: Parsing-related flags for the package.
17   :return: nothing
18
19.. c:function:: bool pkgconf_fragment_has_system_dir(const pkgconf_client_t *client, const pkgconf_fragment_t *frag)
20
21   Checks if a `fragment` contains a `system path`.  System paths are detected at compile time and optionally overridden by
22   the ``PKG_CONFIG_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH`` and ``PKG_CONFIG_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_PATH`` environment variables.
23
24   :param pkgconf_client_t* client: The pkgconf client object the fragment belongs to.
25   :param pkgconf_fragment_t* frag: The fragment being checked.
26   :return: true if the fragment contains a system path, else false
27   :rtype: bool
28
29.. c:function:: void pkgconf_fragment_copy(const pkgconf_client_t *client, pkgconf_list_t *list, const pkgconf_fragment_t *base, bool is_private)
30
31   Copies a `fragment` to another `fragment list`, possibly removing a previous copy of the `fragment`
32   in a process known as `mergeback`.
33
34   :param pkgconf_client_t* client: The pkgconf client being accessed.
35   :param pkgconf_list_t* list: The list the fragment is being added to.
36   :param pkgconf_fragment_t* base: The fragment being copied.
37   :param bool is_private: Whether the fragment list is a `private` fragment list (static linking).
38   :return: nothing
39
40.. c:function:: void pkgconf_fragment_copy_list(const pkgconf_client_t *client, pkgconf_list_t *list, const pkgconf_list_t *base)
41
42   Copies a `fragment list` to another `fragment list`, possibly removing a previous copy of the fragments
43   in a process known as `mergeback`.
44
45   :param pkgconf_client_t* client: The pkgconf client being accessed.
46   :param pkgconf_list_t* list: The list the fragments are being added to.
47   :param pkgconf_list_t* base: The list the fragments are being copied from.
48   :return: nothing
49
50.. c:function:: void pkgconf_fragment_filter(const pkgconf_client_t *client, pkgconf_list_t *dest, pkgconf_list_t *src, pkgconf_fragment_filter_func_t filter_func)
51
52   Copies a `fragment list` to another `fragment list` which match a user-specified filtering function.
53
54   :param pkgconf_client_t* client: The pkgconf client being accessed.
55   :param pkgconf_list_t* dest: The destination list.
56   :param pkgconf_list_t* src: The source list.

58   :param void* data: Optional data to pass to the filter function.
59   :return: nothing
60
61.. c:function:: size_t pkgconf_fragment_render_len(const pkgconf_list_t *list, bool escape, const pkgconf_fragment_render_ops_t *ops)
62
63   Calculates the required memory to store a `fragment list` when rendered as a string.
64
65   :param pkgconf_list_t* list: The `fragment list` being rendered.
66   :param bool escape: Whether or not to escape special shell characters (deprecated).

68   :return: the amount of bytes required to represent the `fragment list` when rendered
69   :rtype: size_t
70
71.. c:function:: void pkgconf_fragment_render_buf(const pkgconf_list_t *list, char *buf, size_t buflen, bool escape, const pkgconf_fragment_render_ops_t *ops)

80   :return: nothing
81
82.. c:function:: char *pkgconf_fragment_render(const pkgconf_list_t *list)
83
84   Allocate memory and render a `fragment list` into it.
85
86   :param pkgconf_list_t* list: The `fragment list` being rendered.
87   :param bool escape: Whether or not to escape special shell characters (deprecated).
88   :param pkgconf_fragment_render_ops_t* ops: An optional ops structure to use for custom renderers, else ``NULL``.
89   :return: An allocated string containing the rendered `fragment list`.
90   :rtype: char *
91
