PROCEDURE Run(
    c: M3Context.T;

    ): INTEGER
    RAISES {};
Compile world using c, prev, cur. prev and cur are handles on the state of the units in the external world; the former at some earlier time than that represented by cur (which typically denotes the current state). Any Errors result in result < 0. Typical usage is to begin with prev=NIL, cur=val and then prev=cur; cur=prev.rescan().

PROCEDURE CompileUnits(c: M3Context.T; ut: M3CUnit.Type;
    units: REF ARRAY OF TEXT;): INTEGER RAISES {};
Manually compile 'ut, units' using 'c', errors result in result < 0. A subsequent call of 'Run' will not recompile the given units unless they are changed after this call.

PROCEDURE CompileAll(c: M3Context.T; p: M3DepFindFile.T;
                     compile_dirs: M3PathElemList.T): INTEGER RAISES {};
Compile all units associated with 'p', that are not already compiled in 'c' without error.

END M3DepCompile.
