  • `Multi_Unit_Object_Separator': single, indexed, case-insensitive index

    Index is a language name. Value is the string to be used in the object file name before the index of the unit, when compiling a unit in a multi unit source of the language.

• `Configuration - Mapping Files'
  • `Mapping_File_Switches': list, indexed, case-insensitive index

  • `Mapping_Body_Suffix': single, indexed, case-insensitive index

    Index is a language name. Value is the suffix to be used in a mapping file to indicate that the source is a body.

• `Configuration - Config Files'
  • `Config_File_Switches': list: single, indexed, case-insensitive index

    Index is a language name. Value is the list of switches to specify to the compiler of the language a configuration file.

  • `Config_Body_File_Name': single, indexed, case-insensitive index

    Index is a language name. Value is the template to be used to indicate a configuration specific to a body of the language in a configuration file.

  • `Config_Body_File_Name_Index': single, indexed, case-insensitive index

    Index is a language name. Value is the template to be used to indicate a configuration specific to the body a unit in a multi unit source of the language in a configuration file.

  • `Config_Body_File_Name_Pattern': single, indexed, case-insensitive index

    Index is a language name. Value is the template to be used to indicate a configuration for all bodies of the languages in a configuration file.

  • `Config_Spec_File_Name': single, indexed, case-insensitive index

    Index is a language name. Value is the template to be used to indicate a configuration specific to a spec of the language in a configuration file.

  • `Config_Spec_File_Name_Index': single, indexed, case-insensitive index

    Index is a language name. Value is the template to be used to indicate a configuration specific to the spec a unit in a multi unit source of the language in a configuration file.
