NAME

iac - PolyORB's IDL-to-Ada compiler

iac opts file [-cppargs args]

iac is an IDL-to-Ada compiler, compliant with version 1.2 of the "Ada Language Mapping Specification" produced by the OMG.

iac accepts the following options:

-E Preprocess only. -k Keep temporary files.

-p Produce source on standard output.

-o DIR Specify output directory.

-dm Generate debug messages when analyzing scopes

-df Dump the frontend tree (the IDL tree)

-cppargs ARGS: Pass ARGS to the C++ preprocessor.
-I dir Shortcut for -cppargs -I dir.
-nocpp Do not preprocess input
-<lang> Generate code for a supported language
types Generate a list of all types present in the IDL file: -p Print the list generate
ada Generate Ada source code: -i Generate implementation template.; -c Generate client side code.; -s Generate server side code.; -d Generate delegation package. (defunct); -ir Generate code for interface repository.(defunct); -noir Don't generate code for interface repository (default).; -hc Using perfect minimal hash tables in skeletons and minimize CPU
time; -hm Using perfect minimal hash tables in skeletons and minimize
memory space; -rs Use the SII/SSI to handle requests; -rd Use the DII/DSI to handle requests (default); -da Dump the Ada tree; -db Generate only the package bodies; -ds Generate only the package specs; -dw Output the withed entities; -dt Output tree warnings; -di Generate code for imported entities
idl Dump parsed IDL file: -b n Base to output integer literal As a default (zero) use base
from input; -e Expand IDL Tree; -df Dump IDL Tree (may be used in conjunction with -e to dump the
expanded IDL tree); -di Output IDL code of imported entities (may be used in conjunc
tion with -e to output the expanded IDL code)

iac returns one of the following values upon exit:

0 Successful completion

1 Usage error
