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.

       Full documentation for slice2java is available online at:

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

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