NAME

       lcm-gen - code generation tool.

SYNOPSIS

       lcm-gen [options] FILE...

DESCRIPTION

       lcm-gen  is  the  Lightweight  Communications and Marshalling code generation utility.  It
       takes as input one or more  .lcm  files  containing  LCM  message  type  definitions,  and
       generates  language-specific  bindings  for  marshalling and unmarshalling messages of the
       specified types.

       Currently, lcm-gen is capable of generating language bindings for C,  C++,  Java,  Python,
       Lua, and C#.

GENERAL OPTIONS

       -h     Prints some help text and exits.

       -t, --tokenize
              Show tokenization.

       -d, --debug
              Show parsed files.

       --lazy Generate output file only if .lcm is newer than output file (or if output file does
              not already exist).

       --package-prefix PFX
              Add package name PFX as a prefix to the declared package.

       --version
              Shows version information and exits.

C OPTIONS

       -c, --c
              Emit C code.

       --c-cpath DIR
              Destination directory for generated .c files. (default: current directory)

       --c-hpath DIR
              Destination directory for generated .h files. (default: current directory)

       --cinclude DIR
              Generated #include lines reference this directory

       --c-no-pubsub DIR
              Do not generate _publish and _subscribe functions.  This results in .c and .h files
              that  have no linking dependencies and can be used for just marshalling, separately
              from liblcm.  They still #include <lcm/lcm_coretypes.h>, so you will need  to  copy
              that file to the appropriate include path.

       --c-typeinfo
              Generate typeinfo functions for each type (experimental).

C++ OPTIONS

       -x, --cpp
              Emit C++ code.

       --cpp-hpath DIR
              Destination directory for generated .hpp files. (default: current directory)

       --cpp-include DIR
              Generated C++ #include lines reference this directory

       --cpp-std STD
              Generated  files  comply  with  the  specified  C++ standard. Supported values are:
              c++98, c++11. Default is c++98.

JAVA OPTIONS

       -j, --java
              Emit Java code.

       --jpath DIR
              Destination base directory for generated Java files. (default: current directory)

       --jmkdir <true|false>
              Automatically create Java source directories (default: true)

       --jdecl STR
              String added to class declarations (default: implements lcm.lcm.LCMEncodable)

       --jdefaultpkg PKG
              Default Java package if LCM type has no package (default: lcmtypes)

PYTHON OPTIONS

       -p, --python
              Emit Python code.

       --ppath DIR
              Destination base directory for generated Python files. (default: current directory)

LUA OPTIONS

       -l, --lua
              Emit Lua code.

       --lpath DIR
              Lua destination directory.

C#.NET OPTIONS

       --csharp
              Emit C#.NET code

       --csharp-path DIR
              C#.NET destination directory

       --csharp-mkdir <true|false>
              Make C#.NET source directories automatically (default: true)

       --csharp-strip-dirs <true|false>
              Do not generate folders for default and root namespace (default: false)

       --csharp-decl STR
              String added to class declarations (default: " : LCM.LCM.LCMEncodable")

       --csharp-root-nsp NSP
              Root C#.NET namespace (wrapper) added before LCM package (default: "")

       --csharp-default-nsp NSP
              Default C#.NET namespace if LCM type has no package (default: LCMTypes)
