| The "c" directory contains the C host language implementation of Apache Lucy. |
| See the DevGuide for an overview of Lucy's layers: |
| |
| http://lucy.apache.org/docs/perl/Lucy/Docs/DevGuide.html |
| |
| Most of the C files within the "c/src" directory contain stubs for |
| routines whose interfaces are defined within "trunk/core". |
| |
| core/src/Lucy/Index/Inverter.cfh # Declares interface. |
| core/src/Lucy/Index/Inverter.c # all except Invert_Doc() |
| example-lang/src/Lucy/Index/Inverter.c # only Invert_Doc() |
| |
| Once all the stubs have been implemented correctly, Lucy will theoretically |
| build and pass its tests. |
| |
| There is one pair of files with an interface *not* defined in core. |
| |
| c/src/CFBind.h |
| c/src/CFBind.c |
| |
| The CFBind files are there to hold conversion routines which are specific to C. |
| Since it is impractical to impose a generic interface, they |
| are not defined in core. |

| HACKING |
| ================================================================================ |
| |
| The C host language uses the autotools toolchain. Get started with: |
| |
| % ./bootstrap.sh |
| % ./configure && make test |
| |
