NAME¶

diameterc - Compile a diameter dictionary to Erlang source.

Synopsis¶

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 m:diameter_make provides an alternate compilation interface.Compile a single dictionary file to Erlang source. Valid options are as follows.

•

**-i

Multiple -i options can be specified.

• **-o
• -E - Suppress .erl file generation.
• -H - Suppress .hrl file generation.
• --name name - Name the output module.
• --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.

Returns 0 on success, non-zero on failure.m:diameter_make, diameter_dict(4)
