NAME
aelpf - list project files
SYNOPSIS
aelpf [ option... ]
aelpf -Help
aelpf -VERSion
DESCRIPTION
The aelpf command is used to list the files which make up a project. The file names are printed one per
line on the output.
This is very similar to the aegis -l pf listing, but it only lists file names, it lists no other
attributes, and it is considerably faster.
If a change number is supplied on the command line, the files within that change will be excluded from
the listing. This allows build tools to distinguish between change files which are changing, from
project files which are not, if they care.
If your filenames have newlines in them, you have a problem. You can use any of the posix_filename_‐
charset, dos_filename_required, windows_filename_required, or shell_safe_filenames fields in your
project configuration file to prevent this. See aenf(1) and aepconf(5) for more information.
OPTIONS
The following options are understood:
-ACtion name
This option may be used to specify which file actions you are interested in. Valid values are
"create", "modify", "remove", etc, as may be observed in the Action column of the aegis -l pf
listing. The default is to list files with all actions except removed files. You may use this
option more than once.
-Not_ACtion name
This option may be used to exclude an action from the listing. If no actions are explicitly
included or excluded, the default is to exclude removed files. You may use this option more
than once.
-Change number
This option may be used to specify a particular change within a project. See aegis(1) for a
complete description of this option.
-Help
This option may be used to obtain more information about how to use the aelpf program.
-Project name
This option may be used to select the project of interest. When no -Project option is
specified, the AEGIS_PROJECT environment variable is consulted. If that does not exist, the
user's $HOME/.aegisrc file is examined for a default project field (see aeuconf(5) for more
information). If that does not exist, when the user is only working on changes within a single
project, the project name defaults to that project. Otherwise, it is an error.
-USAge name
This option may be used to specify which file usages you are interested in. Valid values are
"source", "test", etc, as may be observed in the Usage column of the aegis -l pf listing. The
default is to list files with all usages. You may use this option more than once.
-Not_USAge name
This option may be used to exclude usages from the listing. The default is to exclude no
usages. You may use this option more than once.
See also aegis(1) for options common to all aegis commands.
All options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented as the upper case letters, all lower case
letters and underscores (_) are optional. You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters.
All options are case insensitive, you may type them in upper case or lower case or a combination of
both, case is not important.
For example: the arguments "-project, "-PROJ" and "-p" are all interpreted to mean the -Project option.
The argument "-prj" will not be understood, because consecutive optional characters were not supplied.
Options and other command line arguments may be mixed arbitrarily on the command line, after the
function selectors.
The GNU long option names are understood. Since all option names for aelpf are long, this means
ignoring the extra leading '-'. The "--option=value" convention is also understood.
EXIT STATUS
The aelpf command will exit with a status of 1 on any error. The aelpf command will only exit with a
status of 0 if there are no errors.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
See aegis(1) for a list of environment variables which may affect this command. See aepconf(5) for the project configuration file's project_specific field for how to set environment variables for all commands executed by Aegis.
