For a given list of +strings, it produces a hash function and hash table in the form of +C or C++ code, for looking up a value depending on the input string. +The hash function is perfect,' which means that the hash table has +no collisions, and the hash table lookup needs a single string +comparison only. GNU gperf is highly customizable. There are options +for generating C and C++ code, for emitting 'switch' statements or +nested 'ifs' instead of a hash table, and for tuning the algorithm +that gperf uses. + +Homepage +-------- +http://www.gnu.org/software/gperf/gperf.html + +System +------ +- MS-Windows 95 / 98 / ME / NT / 2000 / XP with msvcrt.dll +- if msvcrt.dll is not in your Windows/System folder, get it from + Microsoft <http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;259403"> + or by installing Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher + <http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie> + +Notes +----- +- Bugs and questions on this MS-Windows port: gnuwin32@users.sourceforge.net + +Package Availability +-------------------- +- in: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net + +Sources +------- +- gperf-3.0.1-src.zip + +Compilation +----------- +The package has been compiled with GNU auto-tools, GNU make, and Mingw +(GCC for MS-Windows). Any differences from the original sources are given +in gperf-3.0.1-GnuWin32.diffs in gperf-3.0.1-src.zip. Libraries needed +for compilation can be found at the lines starting with 'LIBS = ' in the +Makefiles. Usually, these are standard libraries provided with Mingw, or +libraries from the package itself; 'gw32c' refers to the libgw32c package, +which provides MS-Windows substitutes or stubs for functions normally found in +Unix. For more information, see: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/compile.html +and http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/libgw32c.htm. |
