xpybuild.utils¶

Contains utility functions and classes for use in build files and custom target classes, such as xpybuild.utils.fileutils and xpybuild.utils.outputhandler.ProcessOutputHandler.

`xpybuild.utils.antglob`	Ant-style `*/` globbing functionality, as used by `xpybuild.pathsets.FindPaths`.
`xpybuild.utils.buildexceptions`	The `xpybuild.utils.buildexceptions.BuildException` class used for (non-internal) problems encountered while building.
`xpybuild.utils.buildfilelocation`	Support for identifying the location of the `XXX.xpybuild.py` file currently being parsed.
`xpybuild.utils.compilers`	Support classes for the C/C++ native compiler chain, used by the `xpybuild.targets.native` module.
`xpybuild.utils.consoleformatter`	Pluggable classes for customizing the format that xpybuild uses when writing log messages to stdout (for example, for Teamcity, make, Visual Studio, etc).
`xpybuild.utils.fileutils`	Functions for manipulating files and paths including `xpybuild.utils.fileutils.openForWrite`, `xpybuild.utils.fileutils.mkdir`, `xpybuild.utils.fileutils.toLongPathSafe` and `xpybuild.utils.fileutils.parsePropertiesFile`.
`xpybuild.utils.flatten`	Utility functions for normalizing and flattening deeply nested lists.
`xpybuild.utils.functors`	Contains `xpybuild.utils.functors.Composable` and associated classes for creating late-binding functions/functors.
`xpybuild.utils.java`	Support classes for the Java targets in `xpybuild.targets.java`.
`xpybuild.utils.outputhandler`	Contains `xpybuild.utils.outputhandler.ProcessOutputHandler` which targets use to parse the output from subprocesses and decide whether warnings, errors or fatal build failures should be raised as a result.
`xpybuild.utils.process`	Support functions for invoking processes from targets.
`xpybuild.utils.progress`	Console formatter classes that write a progress bar to stdout as xpybuild runs.
`xpybuild.utils.stringutils`	Utility functions for manipulating strings, such as `xpybuild.utils.stringutils.compareVersions`.
`xpybuild.utils.terminal`	Utility functions for getting information about the stdout terminal, which may be useful when implementing console formatters.
