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/66.1/.  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.
