NAME

       awsres - build resource files for Ada Web Server applications

SYNOPSIS

       awsres [-h] [-r unit] [-q] file...

DESCRIPTION

       The  Ada  Web  Server  is  a library that allows you to embed a web server into your Ada application.  It
       provides not only HTTP but also SOAP, WSDL and several other facilities.  Thus you can write full-fledged
       web applications.  awsres allows you to embed resources, such as pictures, into your final executable, so
       that your executable is completely self-contained and does not need to read other files at run time.

       awsres works by creating Ada source files that contain the data for your resources as  arrays  of  bytes.
       You then compile these Ada source files into your executable.  At run time, the AWS library automatically
       loads the resources from the executable whenever available.

       awsres creates one parent Ada package named, by default, `res', and one child package  for  each  of  the
       files given on the command line.  The package `res' registers each resource when your application starts.
       To link `res' into your executable you simply add a `with res;' statement in one of your source files.

EXAMPLE

       $ ls
       image.png
       $ awsres image.png
