I'm trying to parse a Makefile, (FreeBSD Ports)
I plan on dumping the Makefile vars to a MySQL Database.
Would I parse the make file like a ini file?
Or would I have to use something different?
Maybe someone knows a tool that can do this for me?
Thanks
Ben
Try file() and ereg() or preg_match. If the Makefile
has standard format you're looking for
FOOBAR= some string here
so reading the file into an array (the file() call) and
using a regular expression conditional (to determine
if you're looking at a variable or something else)
might be quite enough to do the trick.
