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
       destination  ]  [  -n,  --name  name  ] [ -e, --entrypoint name ] [ -f,
       --filename name ] [ filename ...	 ]

DESCRIPTION
       genccode	reads each of the supplied filename and	writes out  a  C  file
       containing 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, replac-
       ing dots	by underscores,	and adding a .c	file extension.

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

       -d, --destdir destination
	      Set  the destination directory to	destination.  The default des-
	      tination 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 indicating	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  op-
	      tion).
