Purpose:
A generic shell script compiler. Shc takes a script, which is
specified on the command line and produces C source code. The
generated source code is then compiled and linked to produce a
stripped binary executable. Use with care.
Building:
Just do a "make"
Testing:
Try: "make test"
or: "shc -v -f match" then "match.x sh"
Caveat emptor: see Copyright
The results look fine to me, but I havn't used this in anger, but
the author has used shc for his work widely over SunOS, Solaris and
Linux, and done some testing on Irix and HPUX.
We tested it on a few SMALL ksh scripts - big tasks should probably
be written in C in the first place (see _SC_ARG_MAX below)!
Bugs:
The one (and I hope the only) limitation using shc is the
_SC_ARG_MAX system configuration parameter.
It limits the maximum length of the arguments to the exec function,
limiting the maximum length of the runnable script of shc.
!! - CHECK YOUR RESULTS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING - !!
