NAME

gencnval – compile the converters aliases file

SYNOPSIS

gencnval [ -h, -?, –help ] [ -v, –verbose ] [ -c, –copyright ] [ -s, –sourcedir source ] [ -d, –destdir destination ] [ converterfile ]

DESCRIPTION

gencnval converts the ICU aliases file converterfile into the binary file cnvalias.icu. This binary file can then be read directly by ICU, or used by pkgdata(1) for incorporation into a larger archive or library.

If converterfile is not provided, the default ICU convrtrs.txt file is used.

OPTIONS

-h, -?, –help

Print help about usage and exit.

-v, –verbose

Display verbose output. This information can include information about conflicting aliases and the converters the aliases resolve to.

-c, –copyright

Include a copyright notice in the binary data.

-s, –sourcedir source

Set the source directory to source. The default source directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA.

-d, –destdir destination

Set the destination directory to destination. The default destination directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA.

ENVIRONMENT

ICU_DATA

Specifies the directory containing ICU data. Defaults to ${prefix}/share/icu/70.1/. Some tools in ICU depend on the presence of the trailing slash. It is thus important to make sure that it is present if ICU_DATA is set.

FILES

icu/source/data/mappings/convrtrs.txt

Description of ICU’s converters and their aliases. This data file is not normally installed, and it is available as a part of ICU source code.
