The aelpf command is used to
list the files which make up a project.
The file names are printed one per line on the output.
This is very similar to the aegis -l pf listing,
but it only lists file names, it lists no other attributes,
and it is considerably faster.
If a change number is supplied on the command line,
the files within that change will be excluded from the listing.
This allows build tools to distinguish between change files which are changing,
from project files which are not, if they care.
If your filenames have newlines in them, you have a problem.
You can use any of the
posix_filename_charset,
dos_filename_required,
windows_filename_required, or
shell_safe_filenames
fields in your project configuration file to prevent this.
See aenf(1) and aepconf(5) for more information.
OPTIONS
The following options are understood:
-ACtionname
This option may be used to specify which file actions you are interested in.
Valid values are "create", "modify", "remove", etc,
as may be observed in the Action column of the aegis -l pf listing.
The default is to list files with all actions except removed files.
You may use this option more than once.
-Not_ACtionname
This option may be used to exclude an action from the listing.
If no actions are explicitly included or excluded,
the default is to exclude removed files.
You may use this option more than once.
-Changenumber
This option may be used to specify a particular change within a project.
See aegis(1) for a complete description of this option.
-Help
This option may be used to obtain more information about how to use the
aelpf
program.
-Projectname
This option may be used to select the project of interest.
When no
-Project
option is specified,
the
AEGIS_PROJECT
environment variable is consulted.
If that does not exist,
the user's
$HOME/.aegisrc
file is examined for a default project field (see
aeuconf(5)
for more information).
If that does not exist,
when the user is only working on changes within a single project,
the project name defaults to that project.
Otherwise,
it is an error.
-USAgename
This option may be used to specify which file usages you are interested in.
Valid values are "source", "test", etc,
as may be observed in the Usage column of the aegis -l pf listing.
The default is to list files with all usages.
You may use this option more than once.
-Not_USAgename
This option may be used to exclude usages from the listing.
The default is to exclude no usages.
You may use this option more than once.
See also
aelpf(1)
for options common to all aelpf commands.
All options may be abbreviated;
the abbreviation is documented as the upper case letters,
all lower case letters and underscores (_) are optional.
You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters.
All options are case insensitive,
you may type them in upper case or lower case or a combination of both,
case is not important.
For example:
the arguments "-project, "-PROJ" and "-p" are
all interpreted to mean the -Project option.
The argument "-prj" will not be understood,
because consecutive optional characters were not supplied.
Options and other command line arguments may be
mixed arbitrarily on the command line,
after the function selectors.
The GNU long option names are understood.
Since all option names for
aelpf
are long,
this means ignoring the extra leading '-'.
The "--option=value" convention is also understood.
EXIT STATUS
The
aelpf
command will exit with a status of 1 on any error.
The
aelpf
command will only exit with a status of 0 if there are no errors.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
See aegis(1) for a list of environment variables which may affect
this command.
See aepconf(5) for the project configuration file's
project_specific field for how to set environment variables for
all commands executed by Aegis.
