To use zsh headers in some module at least `config.h` file is needed in
addition to those already present in the package. `config.h` files contains
defines guessed by ./configure script and including it prior to `zsh.h` is the
only sane variant to include `zsh.h` (insane variant is using module’s own
configure script which will create those defines). Without `config.h` including
`zsh.h` will fail due to missing defines, and even if it was not failing it
would make #include <zsh.h> do the wrong thing because of the bits like
#ifdef ZSH_64_BIT_TYPE
typedef ZSH_64_BIT_TYPE zlong;
#ifdef ZSH_64_BIT_UTYPE
typedef ZSH_64_BIT_UTYPE zulong;
#else
typedef unsigned zlong zulong;
#endif
#else
typedef long zlong;
typedef unsigned long zulong;
#endif
(configure.h-driven definition of zlong and zulong which has the potential of
breaking ABI compatibility in some cases).
In addition to this file it is good to have a patched `zsh.mdh` file which
glues together all zsh includes and is a single entry point. Patch needed to
include this file in the distribution may be performed with the following
script:
for file in Src/{zsh.mdh,*.h} ; do
sed -i 's@\.\./config\.h@config.h@' "$file"
sed -i 's@#\(\s*\)include "\([^"]\+\)"@#\1include <zsh/\2>@'
"$file"
done
. I am doing this in a Gentoo ebuild and the result works just fine.
