Plunge

An exploratory tool for the C Language.

Usage

Build

You'll need the Haskell Platform or other equivalent Haskell configuration.

git clone https://github.com/sw17ch/plunge.git
cd plunge
cabal install --only-dependencies
cabal configure
cabal build

Execute

After running the above command, the binary will be located at: ./dist/build/plunge/plunge. You can run the program like this:

./dist/build/plunge/plunge [your_file.c]

The full list of options can be found by passing --help or -? to plunge.

$ ./dist/build/plunge/plunge --help
Plunge 0.0.0.0, (C) John Van Enk 2012

Usage: plunge (-i|--input-file FILE) [-g|--gcc-option OPTION] [-p|--line-pad STRING] [-e|--empty-line STRING] [-m|--max-width NUMBER] [-v|--vert-sep STRING] [-h|--horiz-sep STRING]

Available options:
  -h,--help                Show this help text
  -i,--input-file FILE     The C file to analyze.
  -g,--gcc-option OPTION   An option to pass to GCC. Can be specified multiple times.
  -p,--line-pad STRING     String to use to pad lines. (default: " ")
  -e,--empty-line STRING   String to use to represent empty lines (default: "-")
  -m,--max-width NUMBER    How wide each column of output is allowed to be (default: 80)
  -v,--vert-sep STRING     What string to use to separate the two columns (default: " | ")
  -h,--horiz-sep STRING    What string to use to separate horizontal segments (default: "-")

Explanation

Right now, it's pretty simple. Feed it a C file, and it will use a gcc from your path and output a table representing what parts of your C file become equivalent parts of the preprocessed file.

Example

Here's a sample session using example_files/sample.c from this project.

$ plunge -i example_files/sample.c -m 40 -g -DCAT

This example shows how to specify the file to preprocess, the maximum column width and a preprocessor option (-DCAT). The output shows the original C file on the left and the preprocessed file on the right. The lines are aligned such that it is easy to tell which preprocessed code resulted from which C code.

Lines filled with dots are lines that did no have any corresponding data from the other side.

For completness, here's another run of the same file that uses different options.
