"""Abstract base class to define the interface that must be implemented
by real compiler abstraction classes. Might have some use as a
place for shared code, but it's not yet clear what code can be
shared between compiler abstraction models for different platforms.
The basic idea behind a compiler abstraction class is that each
instance can be used for all the compile/link steps in building
a single project. Thus, attributes common to all of those compile
and link steps -- include directories, macros to define, libraries
to link against, etc. -- are attributes of the compiler instance.
To allow for variability in how individual files are treated,
most (all?) of those attributes may be varied on a per-compilation
or per-link basis."""
# 'compiler_type' is a class attribute that identifies this class. It
# keeps code that wants to know what kind of compiler it's dealing with
# from having to import all possible compiler classes just to do an
# 'isinstance'. In concrete CCompiler subclasses, 'compiler_type'
# should really, really be one of the keys of the 'compiler_class'
# dictionary (see below -- used by the 'new_compiler()' factory
# function) -- authors of new compiler interface classes are
# responsible for updating 'compiler_class'!

# XXX things not handled by this compiler abstraction model:
# * client can't provide additional options for a compiler,
# e.g. warning, optimization, debugging flags. Perhaps this
# should be the domain of concrete compiler abstraction classes
# (UnixCCompiler, MSVCCompiler, etc.) -- or perhaps the base
# class should have methods for the common ones.
# * can't put output files (object files, libraries, whatever)
# into a separate directory from their inputs. Should this be
# handled by an 'output_dir' attribute of the whole object, or a
# parameter to the compile/link_* methods, or both?
# * can't completely override the include or library searchg
# path, ie. no "cc -I -Idir1 -Idir2" or "cc -L -Ldir1 -Ldir2".
# I'm not sure how widely supported this is even by Unix
# compilers, much less on other platforms. And I'm even less
# sure how useful it is; maybe for cross-compiling, but
# support for that is a ways off. (And anyways, cross
# compilers probably have a dedicated binary with the
# right paths compiled in. I hope.)
# * can't do really freaky things with the library list/library
# dirs, e.g. "-Ldir1 -lfoo -Ldir2 -lfoo" to link against
# different versions of libfoo.a in different locations. I
# think this is useless without the ability to null out the
