gencnval - Man Page

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

gencnval converts the ICU aliases file converterfile into the binary file cnvalias.icu. This binary file can then be read directly by ICU, or used by pkgdata(1) for incorporation into a larger archive or library.

If converterfile is not provided, the default ICU convrtrs.txt file is used.

-h,  -?,  --help

Print help about usage and exit.

-v,  --verbose

Display verbose output. This information can include information about conflicting aliases and the converters the aliases resolve to.

-c,  --copyright

Include a copyright notice in the binary data.

-s,  --sourcedir source

Set the source directory to source. The default source directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA.

-d,  --destdir destination

Set the destination directory to destination. The default destination directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA.

ICU_DATA

Specifies the directory containing ICU data. Defaults to /usr/share/icu/74.2/. Some tools in ICU depend on the presence of the trailing slash. It is thus important to make sure that it is present if ICU_DATA is set.

icu/source/data/mappings/convrtrs.txt

Description of ICU's converters and their aliases. This data file is not normally installed, and it is available as a part of ICU source code.
