NAME
uil — The user interface language compiler "user interface language" "user interface language" "compiler"
"uil" "uil" "compiler"
SYNOPSIS
uil [options ] [file]
DESCRIPTION
The uil command invokes the UIL compiler. The User Interface Language (UIL) is a specification language
for describing the initial state of a user interface for a Motif application. The specification describes
the objects (menus, dialog boxes, labels, push buttons, and so on) used in the interface and specifies
the routines to be called when the interface changes state as a result of user interaction.
file Specifies the file to be compiled through the UIL compiler.
options Specifies one or more of the following options:
-Ipathname
This option causes the compiler to look for include files in the directory specified
if the include files have not been found in the paths that already were searched.
Specify this option followed by a pathname, with no intervening spaces.
-m Machine code is listed. This directs the compiler to place in the listing file a
description of the records that it added to the User Interface Database (UID). This
helps you isolate errors. The default is no machine code.
-o file "user interface database" "uid file"
Directs the compiler to produce a UID. By default, UIL creates a UID with the name
a.uid. The file specifies the filename for the UID. No UID is produced if the
compiler issues any diagnostics categorized as error or severe. UIDs are portable
only across same-size machine architectures.
-s Directs the compiler to set the locale before compiling any files. The locale is set
in an implementation-dependent manner. On ANSI C-based systems, the locale is
usually set by calling setlocale(LC_ALL, ""). If this option is not specified, the
compiler does not set the locale.
-v file Directs the compiler to generate a listing. The file specifies the filename for the
listing. If the -v option is not present, no listing is generated by the compiler.
The default is no listing.
-w Specifies that the compiler suppress all warning and informational messages. If this
option is not present, all messages are generated, regardless of the severity.
-wmd file Specifies a binary widget meta-language description file to be used in place of the
default WML description.
