Command Summary

diameterc [<options>] <file>

###
Description

The diameterc utility is used to compile a diameter dictionary file into Erlang source. The resulting source implements the interface diameter required to encode and decode the dictionary's messages and AVPs.

The module diameter_make(3) provides an alternate compilation interface.

###
USAGE

diameterc [<options>] <file>

  Compile a single dictionary file to Erlang source. Valid options are as follows.

  -i <dir>

    Prepend the specified directory to the code path. Use to point at beam files compiled from inherited dictionaries, @inherits in a dictionary file creating a beam dependency, not an erl/hrl dependency.

    Multiple -i options can be specified.

  -o <dir>

    Write generated source to the specified directory. Defaults to the current working directory.

  -E
  -H

    Suppress erl and hrl generation, respectively.

  --name <name>
  --prefix <prefix>

    Transform the input dictionary before compilation, setting @name or @prefix to the specified string.

  --inherits <arg>

    Transform the input dictionary before compilation, appending @inherits of the specified string.

    Two forms of --inherits have special meaning:

        --inherits -
        --inherits Prev/Mod

    The first has the effect of clearing any previous inherits, the second of replacing a previous inherits of Prev to one of Mod. This allows the semantics of the input dictionary to be changed without modifying the file itself.

    Multiple --inherits options can be specified.

###
EXIT STATUS

Returns 0 on success, non-zero on failure.
