XML2AG(1) Programmer's Manual XML2AG(1)NAMExml2ag - XML to AutoGen Definiton Converter
SYNOPSISxml2ag [-flag [value]]... [--opt-name [[=| ]value]]...
[ <def-file> ]
This program will convert any arbitrary XML file into equivalent Auto‐
Gen definitions, and invoke AutoGen.
DESCRIPTION
This manual page briefly documents the xml2ag command. The template
will be derived from either:
* the --override-tpl command line option
* a top level XML attribute named, "template"
One or the other must be provided, or the program will exit with a
failure message.
The “base-name” for the output will similarly be either:
* the --base-name command line option
* the base name of the .xml file
OPTIONS-O file, --output=file
Output file in lieu of AutoGen processing.
By default, the output is handed to an AutoGen for processing.
However, you may save the definitions to a file instead.
-L dir, --templ-dirs=dir
Template search directory list. This option may appear an
unlimited number of times.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-T tpl-file, --override-tpl=tpl-file
Override template file.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-l tpl-file, --lib-template=tpl-file
Library template file. This option may appear an unlimited num‐
ber of times.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-b name, --base-name=name
Base name for output file(s).
Pass-through AutoGen argument
--definitions=file
Definitions input file.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-S file, --load-scheme=file
Scheme code file to load.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-F file, --load-functions=file
Load scheme function library.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-s suffix, --skip-suffix=suffix
Omit the file with this suffix. This option may appear an
unlimited number of times.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-o suffix, --select-suffix[=suffix]
specify this output suffix. This option may appear an unlimited
number of times.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
--source-time
set mod times to latest source.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-m, --no-fmemopen
Do not use in-mem streams.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
--equate=char-list
characters considered equivalent.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
--writable, --not-writable
Allow output files to be writable. The not-writable form will
disable the option.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
--loop-limit=lim
Limit on increment loops. This option takes an integer number
as its argument. The value of lim is constrained to being:
exactly -1, or
in the range 1 through 0x1000000
The default lim for this option is:
256
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-t time-lim, --timeout=time-lim
Time limit for server shell. This option takes an integer num‐
ber as its argument. The value of time-lim is constrained to
being:
in the range 0 through 3600
Pass-through AutoGen argument
--trace=level
tracing level of detail. This option takes a keyword as its
argument. The argument sets an enumeration value that can be
tested by comparing them against the option value macro. The
available keywords are:
nothing debug-message server-shell
templates block-macros expressions
everything
or their numeric equivalent.
The default level for this option is:
nothing
Pass-through AutoGen argument
--trace-out=file
tracing output file or filter.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
--show-defs
Show the definition tree.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
--used-defines
Show the definitions used.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-D value, --define=value
name to add to definition list. This option may appear an
unlimited number of times.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-U name-pat, --undefine=name-pat
definition list removal pattern. This option may appear an
unlimited number of times.
Pass-through AutoGen argument
-?, --help

-!, --more-help
Extended usage information passed thru pager.
