h2ph - convert .h C header files to .ph Perl header files

As shipped in IRIX 6.5.5. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.

NAME
     h2ph - convert .h C header files to .ph Perl header files

SYNOPSIS
     h2ph [headerfiles]

DESCRIPTION
     h2ph converts any C header files specified to the corresponding Perl
     header file format.  It is most easily run while in /usr/include:

             cd /usr/include; h2ph * sys/*

     The output files are placed in the hierarchy rooted at Perl's
     architecture dependent library directory.  You can specify a different
     hierarchy with a -d switch.

     If run with no arguments, filters standard input to standard output.

ENVIRONMENT
     No environment variables are used.

FILES
      /usr/include/*.h
      /usr/include/sys/*.h

     etc.

DIAGNOSTICS
     The usual warnings if it can't read or write the files involved.

BUGS
     Doesn't construct the %sizeof array for you.

     It doesn't handle all C constructs, but it does attempt to isolate
     definitions inside evals so that you can get at the definitions that it
     can translate.

     It's only intended as a rough tool.  You may need to dicker with the
     files produced.
