slice2java(1)               General Commands Manual              slice2java(1)



NAME
       slice2java - The Slice to Java compiler.


SYNOPSIS
       slice2java [options] [files]


DESCRIPTION
       slice2java compiles Slice files to Java. The macro __SLICE2JAVA__ is
       defined during this compilation.

       side-slice-to-java-mapping/slice2java-command-line-options


OPTIONS
       -h, --help
              Displays a help message.


       -v, --version
              Displays the compiler version.


       -DNAME
              Defines the preprocessor symbol NAME.


       -DNAME=DEF
              Defines the preprocessor symbol NAME with the value DEF.


       -UNAME
              Undefines the preprocessor symbol NAME.


       -IDIR
              Add the directory DIR to the search path for #include
              directives.


       -E
              Print the preprocessor output on stdout.


       --output-dir DIR
              Place the generated files into directory DIR.


       -d, --debug
              Print debug information showing the operation of the Slice
              parser.


       --depend
              Print dependency information to standard output by default, or
              to the file specified by the --depend-file option. No code is
              generated when this option is specified.


       --depend-xml
              Print dependency information in XML format to standard output by
              default, or to the file specified by the --depend-file option.
              No code is generated when this option is specified.


       --depend-file FILE
              Directs dependency information to the specified file. The output
              format depends on whether --depend or --depend-xml is also
              specified.


       --validate
              Checks the provided command-line options for correctness, and
              does not generate any code.


       --compat
              Generate code for the Java Compat mapping. When this option is
              specified, the macro __SLICE2JAVA_COMPAT__ is defined during the
              compilation. If this option is not specified, the default
              behavior is to generate code for the Java mapping.


       --tie
              Generate tie classes. (Java Compat only)


       --impl
              Generate sample implementation files. This option will not
              overwrite an existing file.


       --impl-tie
              Generate sample implementation files using tie classes. This
              option will not overwrite an existing file. (Java Compat only)


       --checksum CLASS
              Generate checksums for Slice definitions into the class CLASS.
              The given class name may optionally contain a package specifier.
              The generated class contains checksums for all of the Slice
              files being translated by this invocation of the compiler.


       --meta META
              Define the file metadata directive META. Using this option is
              equivalent to defining the file metadata META in each named
              Slice file, as well as in any file included by a named Slice
              file. File metadata specified with --meta overrides any
              corresponding file metadata directive in the files being
              compiled.


       --list-generated
              Emit a list of generated files in XML format.
