NAME

6       gencnval - compile the converters aliases file
7

SYNOPSIS

9       gencnval [ -h, -?, --help ] [ -v, --verbose ] [ -c, --copyright ] [ -s,
10       --sourcedir source ] [ -d, --destdir destination ] [ converterfile ]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       gencnval converts the ICU aliases file converterfile  into  the  binary
14       file  cnvalias.icu.  This binary file can then be read directly by ICU,
15       or used by pkgdata(1)  for  incorporation  into  a  larger  archive  or
16       library.
17
18       If  converterfile is not provided, the default ICU convrtrs.txt file is
19       used.

OPTIONS

22       -h, -?, --help
23              Print help about usage and exit.
24
25       -v, --verbose
26              Display verbose output. This information can include information
27              about conflicting aliases and the converters the aliases resolve
28              to.
29
30       -c, --copyright
31              Include a copyright notice in the binary data.
32
33       -s, --sourcedir source
34              Set the source directory to source.  The default  source  direc‐
35              tory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA.
36
37       -d, --destdir destination
38              Set  the destination directory to destination.  The default des‐
39              tination directory is  specified  by  the  environment  variable
40              ICU_DATA.
41

ENVIRONMENT

43       ICU_DATA  Specifies  the  directory  containing  ICU  data. Defaults to
44                 /usr/share/icu/4.2.1/.  Some tools in ICU depend on the pres‐
45                 ence of the trailing slash. It is thus important to make sure
46                 that it is present if ICU_DATA is set.
