<p>The Guile interpreter is available as an object library, to be linked
into applications using Scheme as a configuration or extension
language.
</p>
<p>Here is <samp class="file">simple-guile.c</samp>, source code for a program that will
produce a complete Guile interpreter. In addition to all usual
functions provided by Guile, it will also offer the function
<code class="code">my-hostname</code>.
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">#include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
#include &lt;libguile.h&gt;
static SCM
my_hostname (void)
{
char *s = getenv (&quot;HOSTNAME&quot;);
if (s == NULL)
return SCM_BOOL_F;
else
return scm_from_locale_string (s);
}
static void
inner_main (void *data, int argc, char **argv)
{
scm_c_define_gsubr (&quot;my-hostname&quot;, 0, 0, 0, my_hostname);
scm_shell (argc, argv);
}
int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
scm_boot_guile (argc, argv, inner_main, 0);
return 0; /* never reached */
}
</pre></div>
<p>When Guile is correctly installed on your system, the above program
can be compiled and linked like this:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">$ gcc -o simple-guile simple-guile.c \
`pkg-config --cflags --libs guile-3.0`
</pre></div>
<p>When it is run, it behaves just like the <code class="code">guile</code> program except
that you can also call the new <code class="code">my-hostname</code> function.
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example-preformatted">$ ./simple-guile
scheme@(guile-user)&gt; (+ 1 2 3)
$1 = 6
scheme@(guile-user)&gt; (my-hostname)
&quot;burns&quot;
</pre></div>
</div>
</body>
