>Description</H2
><P
>A component is a configuration option that can contain additional
options and sub-components. The body of a <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>cdl_component</TT
> can contain
the same properties as that of a <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>cdl_option</TT
>. There is an additional
property, <SPAN
CLASS="PROPERTY"
>script</SPAN
> which allows configuration data to be split into
multiple files. It is also possible for a component body to include
<TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>cdl_component</TT
>, <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>cdl_option</TT
> and <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>cdl_interface</TT
> entities that should
go below this component in the configuration hierarchy.</P
><P
><TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>cdl_component</TT
> is implemented as a Tcl command that takes two
arguments, a name and a body. The name must be a valid C preprocessor
identifier: a sequence of upper or lower case letters, digits or
underscores, starting with a non-digit character; identifiers
beginning with an underscore should normally be avoided because they
may clash with system packages or with identifiers reserved for use by
the compiler. Within a single configuration, names must be unique. If
a configuration contained two packages which defined the same entity
<TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>CYGIMP_SOME_OPTION</TT
>, any references to that entity
in a <SPAN
CLASS="PROPERTY"
>requires</SPAN
> property or any other expression would be ambiguous.
It is possible for a given name to be used by two different packages
if those packages should never be loaded into a single configuration.
For example, architectural HAL packages are allowed to re-use certain
names because a single configuration cannot target two different
architectures. For a recommended naming convention see <A
HREF="package.contents.html"
>the Section called <I
>Package Contents and Layout</I
> in Chapter 2</A
>.</P
><P
>The second argument to <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>cdl_component</TT
> is a body of properties and
other commands, typically surrounded by braces so that the Tcl
interpreter treats it as a single argument. This body will be
processed by a recursive invocation of the Tcl interpreter, extended
with additional commands for the various properties that are allowed
inside a <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>cdl_component</TT
>. The valid commands are:</P
