XML2AG(1)

NAME
xml2ag - XML to AutoGen Definiton Converter

SYNOPSIS
xml2ag [-flag [value]]... [--opt-name [[=| ]value]]...
[ <def-file> ]

This program will convert any arbitrary XML file into equivalent AutoGen definitions, and invoke AutoGen.

DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents, briefly, the xml2ag command. The template will be derived from either:
* the --override-tpl command line option
* a top level XML attribute named, "template"
One or the other must be provided, or the program will exit with a failure message.

The “base-name” for the output will similarly be either:
* the --base-name command line option
* the base name of the .xml file

OPTIONS

-O file, --output=file

    By default, the output is handed to an AutoGen for processing. However, you may save the definitions to a file instead.

-L dir, --templ-dirs=dir
    Template search directory list. This option may appear an unlimited number of times.

    Pass-through AutoGen argument

-T tpl-file, --override-tpl=tpl-file
    Override template file.

    Pass-through AutoGen argument

-l tpl-file, --lib-template=tpl-file
    Library template file. This option may appear an unlimited number of times.

    Pass-through AutoGen argument

-b name, --base-name=name
    Base name for output file(s).

    Pass-through AutoGen argument

--definitions=file
    Definitions input file.

    Pass-through AutoGen argument

-S file, --load-scheme=file
    Scheme code file to load.

    Pass-through AutoGen argument

-F file, --load-functions=file
    Load scheme function library.

    Pass-through AutoGen argument

-s suffix, --skip-suffix=suffix
    Omit the file with this suffix. This option may appear an unlimited number of times.

    Pass-through AutoGen argument

-o suffix, --select-suffix[=suffix]
    specify this output suffix. This option may appear an unlimited number of times.

    Pass-through AutoGen argument

--loop-limit=lim
    Limit on increment loops. This option takes an integer number as its argument. The value of lim is constrained to being:

    Pass-through AutoGen argument

--trace=level

     nothing

    Pass-through AutoGen argument
