libpsyc implements various functions required to use PSYC.
See http://about.psyc.eu/libpsyc for more information on the library.
See http://about.psyc.eu/Specification for more information
on the new PSYC specification.
See http://about.psyc.eu for information on PSYC in general.
The plain C API located in the include/psyc directory along with the file psyc.h
is primarily intended to be used for binding with other languages and frameworks.
Available bindings are located in include/<name> where name is the language or
framework.
== C API ==
The "plain C API" is a very low-level API intended to be used for bindings.
To access a certain module of the library, just include the according header
file from the psyc directory:
parser.h -- parse psyc packets
render.h -- render psyc packets
text.h -- text template functions
packet.h -- structures for render.h and functions to initialize them
syntax.h -- definitions and constants related to parsing and rendering
== Directory Overview ==
doc -- where the documentation will be put after generation
include -- contains all bindings and the core C API for the library
lib -- where the compiled library will be put
src -- contains the sourcecode of the library
test -- contains test sourcecodes and test input files
== Compiling libpsyc ==
Type
make
and you are done.
Other possible targets include:
make diet -- compile with diet libc
make test -- compile and run the test
make doc -- generate the API documentation (will be put in the doc folder)
make help -- display the possible targets
== Requirements ==
libpsyc is currently known to compile under Linux and SunOS.
