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(3erl) provides an alternate compilation interface.
USAGE
-
- diameterc [<options>] <file>:
-
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:
-
- -H:
- Suppress erl and hrl generation, respectively.
- --name <name>:
-
- --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.
