GENCCODE(8)			 ICU 76.1 Manual		     GENCCODE(8)

NAME
     genccode  -  generate C or platform specific assembly code from an ICU data
     file.

SYNOPSIS
     genccode [ -h, -?, --help ] [ -a, --assembly name ] [ -d, --destdir  desti-
     nation  ]	[  -n,	--name name ] [ -e, --entrypoint name ] [ -f, --filename
     name ] [ filename ...  ]

DESCRIPTION
     genccode reads each of the supplied filename and writes out a C  file  con-
     taining  a  compilable definition of the data in the data file.  The C file
     name is made by taking the base name of the data filename,  replacing  dots
     by underscores, and adding a .c file extension.

     If  the -a option is used, platform specific assembly code is generated in-
     stead of C code.  Most C compilers will accept both C and	assembly  files.
     Instead  of  writing a filename with a .c file extension, a filename with a
     .s will be written instead.

     If genccode is called with no filename it terminates gracefully.

OPTIONS
     -h, -?, --help
	    Print help about usage and exit.

     -a, --assembly name
	    Output assembly code instead of C code.  Use -h to see the	list  of
	    available  types of assembly to generate and to specify for this op-
	    tion.

     -d, --destdir destination
	    Set the destination directory to destination.  The default	destina-
	    tion directory is the current directory.

     -n, --name name
	    Set  the data name to name instead of the default. This name is also
	    used as the base name of the output. The default name is made of the
	    icudt prefix, followed by a two-digit version  number  corresponding
	    to the current version of the ICU release, and a single letter indi-
	    cating the endianness of the data (the letter b indicated big endian
	    data, and the letter l indicates little endian ones).

     -f, --filename name
	    Normally,  an  ICU	data file such as mydata.icu will be turned into
	    mydata_icu.c and mydata_icu.o.  However, if this parameter	was  set
	    to	"somedata",  the output files will be somedata.o and somedata.c,
	    respectively.

     -e, --entrypoint name
	    Set the data entry point (used for linking against	the  data  in  a
	    shared  library form) to name.  The default entry point name is made
	    of the data (set by the -n, --name option) followed by an underscore
	    and the type of the data (set by the -t, --type option).
