# ► Module Ft.Lib.DistExt.Structures

Data structures that are to be used in a pkg file.

Classes: Document, Executable, ExtensionsDocument, File, FileList, Localization, ModulesDocument, Script

## Classes

class Document
  An XSLT rendered document. It creates both a XML, HTML and Text version of the document (if desired)

  ### Methods

  __init__(self, source, stylesheet, params=None, title=None, category=None, flags=None, mtime=None, outfile=None)
  __repr__(self)
class Executable
  Just a collection of attributes that describes an executable and everything needed to build it (hopefully in a portable way, but there are hooks that let you be as unportable as you need).

      Instance attributes:
        name : string
          the full name of the extension, including any packages -- ie.
          *not* a filename or pathname, but Python dotted name
        sources : [string]
          list of source filenames, relative to the distribution root
          (where the setup script lives), in Unix form (slash-separated)
          for portability.  Source files may be C, C++, SWIG (.i),
          platform-specific resource files, or whatever else is recognized
          by the "build_ext" command as source for a Python extension.
        include_dirs : [string]
          list of directories to search for C/C++ header files (in Unix
          form for portability)
        define_macros : [(name : string, value : string|None)]
          list of macros to define; each macro is defined using a 2-tuple,
          where 'value' is either the string to define it to or None to
          define it without a particular value (equivalent of "#define
          FOO" in source or -DFOO on Unix C compiler command line)
        undef_macros : [string]
          list of macros to undefine explicitly
        library_dirs : [string]
          list of directories to search for C/C++ libraries at link time
        libraries : [string]
          list of library names (not filenames or paths) to link against
        runtime_library_dirs : [string]
          list of directories to search for C/C++ libraries at run time
          (for shared extensions, this is when the extension is loaded)
        extra_objects : [string]
          list of extra files to link with (eg. object files not implied
          by 'sources', static library that must be explicitly specified,
          binary resource files, etc.)
        extra_compile_args : [string]
          any extra platform- and compiler-specific information to use
          when compiling the source files in 'sources'.  For platforms and
          compilers where "command line" makes sense, this is typically a
          list of command-line arguments, but for other platforms it could
          be anything.
        extra_link_args : [string]
          any extra platform- and compiler-specific information to use
          when linking object files together to create the extension (or
          to create a new static Python interpreter).  Similar
          interpretation as for 'extra_compile_args'.

  ### Methods

  __init__(self, name, sources, include_dirs=None, define_macros=None, undef_macros=None, library_dirs=None, libraries=None, runtime_library_dirs=None, extra_objects=None, extra_compile_args=None, extra_link_args=None)
  __repr__(self)
class ExtensionsDocument(Ft.Lib.DistExt.Structures.GeneratedDocument)
  A collection of attributes that describes a set of Python modules that implement 4Suite's XPath/XSLT extension API. Instances of File are used as members of the doc_files argument to setup().

class FileList(distutils.filelist.FileList)
  Defines a collection of files.

  ### Methods
