Bug ID: 3097
Summary: an "unifdef" facility
Product: Exim
Version: 4.98
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: wishlist
Priority: medium
Component: Unfiled
Assignee: unallocated@???
Reporter: jgh146exb@???
CC: exim-dev@???
The process of tidying up outdated .ifdeffery in a large config is tedious and
error-prone. An automated way of generating a modified config file from an
existing
one, applying one specified define (or not-define) would be a useful tool.
Retaining comments and whitespace would be needed.
Retaining separation of .included files would be useful, though perhaps
not needed in an initial implementation.
Handling a set of (un)defines in one go might be a useful extension.
The affected code is probably all in readconf.c (apart from the option-handling
in
exim.c if this is not a standalone tool. But it probably should be a
standalone
binary, sharing radconf.c).
