NAME
       diameterc - Compile a diameter dictionary to Erlang source

SYNOPSIS
       diameterc [<options>] <file>


DESCRIPTION
       The diameterc utility is used to compile a diameter dictionary file
       into Erlang source. The resulting source implements the interface
       diameter required to encode and decode the dictionary's messages and
       AVPs.


       The module diameter_make provides an alternate compilation interface.


USAGE
       Compile a single dictionary file to Erlang source. Valid options are as
       follows.

       -i <dir>
         Prepend the specified directory to the code path. Use to point at
         beam files compiled from inherited dictionaries, @inherits in a
         dictionary file creating a beam dependency, not an erl/hrl
         dependency.

         Multiple -i options can be specified.



       -o <dir>
         Write generated source to the specified directory. Defaults to the
         current working directory.



       -E
         Suppress .erl file generation.


       -H
         Suppress .hrl file generation.


       --name <name>
         Name the output module.



       --prefix <prefix>
         Transform the input dictionary before compilation, setting @name or
         @prefix to the specified string.


       --inherits <arg>
         Transform the input dictionary before compilation, appending
         @inherits of the specified string.

         Two forms of --inherits have special meaning:


                --inherits -
                --inherits Prev/Mod



         The first has the effect of clearing any previous inherits, the
         second of replacing a previous inherits of Prev to one of Mod. This
         allows the semantics of the input dictionary to be changed without
         modifying the file itself.


         Multiple --inherits options can be specified.




EXIT STATUS
       Returns 0 on success, non-zero on failure.
