ecppc [OPTION]

ecppc is the compiler for the ecpp-language. ecpp is a template language, which lets the user embed C++-code  into HTML  for  use  in  tntnet(8). ecppc generates a C++-class from a ecpp template. It can also compile binary data into a C++-class, which makes it possible to integrate them in a tntnet application.

-b

This enables binary-mode. Ecppc does not look for ecpp-tags, but creates a
 class, which just copies the data

-bb

This enables multi-binary-mode. Every binary-file has some overhead, when
 packed into a tntnet-application. This overhead can be quite significant, when
 binary-files are small, like small icons in a web application. To reduce this
 overhead, multiple binaries can be packed into a single class, which removes
 the per-binary overhead completely.

When the component is called, it uses the path-info-parameter
 (request.getPathInfo()) from the request, to decide, which binary to send. If
 no filename matches the path-info, processing is declined. The binaries need
 not be of same mime-type, since the mime-type is looked automatically from the
 mime-database by file- extension of the source-file.

-i filename

In multi binary mode (option -bb) filenames can be read from the file
 specified with this option. This can be useful when the command line gets too
 long or just for convenience.

-I dir

Search include-files in directory. This option can be passed multiple times.
 All specified directories are searched in turn for include-files.

-l log-category

Set log category. Default is component.componentname.

-L

Disable generation of #line-directives

-m mimetype

Set mimetype of output. This is the mimetype, sent by the component to the
 browser in the Content-Type- header. Without this parameter the mimetype is
 looked up from the mime-database of your system using the file-extension of
 the source-file.

--mimetypes file

Read mimetypes from file (default: /etc/mime.types).

-M

This disables normal processing and prints just the ecpp-dependencies from
 this component. The output can be included into a Makefile. Ecpp-dependencies
 are introduces by the <%include>-tag.

-C,  --cmake

Prints ecpp dependencies in a syntax, which cmake understands.

-n name

Set the name of the component. Normally this is derived from the
 source-file-name by removing the path and .ecpp-extension.

-o filename

Write the generated file to the specified file instead of deriving the
 filename from the source-file-name.  The outputfilename is normally the
 source-file where the extension is replaced by .cpp.

-p

Keep path name when deriving name of component from input file name.

-s

Generate singleton. Normally ecppc decides automatically, if the template is
 suitable for a singleton.  This option force ecppc to generate a singleton.

-s-

Do not generate a singleton.

-v

Enable verbose mode. This prints additional information about the processing
 on the standard-output.

-z

Compress the data in the component. Compressed data is automatically
 decopressed on first use. This reduces the code-size, but slightly slows down
 the first call of the component.

-h,  --help

-V,  --version
