eyedbodl 		-help

one must specify one and only oneof the following major options:

-gencode C++ 		: generates C++ code

-gencode Java 		: generates Java code

-gencode CORBA 		: generates CORBA code (IDL and C++ stubs)

-gencode IDL 		: generates IDL

-gencode ODL 		: generates ODL

-update 		: updates schema in database dbname

-diff 		: displays the differences between


a database schema and an odl file

-checkfile 		: check input ODL file

-help 		: displays the current information




the following options must be added to the -gencode C++ or Java option:

-package-name package 		: package name

odlfile|-|-db dbname 		: input ODL file (- is the standard input) or


the database which contains the schema




the following options can be added to the -gencode C++ or Java option:

-output-dir dirname 		: output directory for generated files

-output-file-prefix prefix 		: ouput file prefix (default is the package name)

-class-prefix prefix 		: prefix to be put at the begining of each runtime class

-db-class-prefix prefix 		: prefix to be put at the begining of each database class

-attr-style implicit 		: attribute methods have the attribute name

-attr-style explicit 		: attribute methods have the attribute name


prefixed by get/set (default)

-schema-name schname 		: schema name (default is package)

-down-casting yes 		: generates the down casting methods (the default)

-down-casting no 		: does not generate the down casting methods

-attr-cache yes 		: generates attribute cache instance variable

-attr-cache no 		: does not generate attribute cache instance variable

(the default)




for the -gencode C++ option only:

-c-suffix suffix 		: use suffix as the C file suffix

-h-suffix suffix 		: use suffix as the H file suffix

-gen-class-stubs 		: generates a file class_stubs.h for each class

-class-enums yes 		: generates enums within a class

-class-enums no 		: do not generate enums within a class (default)

-error-policy status 		: status oriented error policy (the default)

-error-policy exception 		: exception oriented error policy

-rootclass rootclass 		: use rootclass name for the root class instead


of the package name.

-no-rootclass 		: does not use any root class




the following options must be added to the -gencode CORBA or IDL option:

-package-name package 		: package name

-idl-module module 		: the IDL module name




one of the following options must be added to the -gencode CORBA option:

odlfile|-|-db dbname 		: input ODL file (- is the standard input) or


the database which contains the schema




the following options can be added to the -gencode CORBA or IDL option:

-output-dir dirname 		: output directory for generated files

-imdl imdlfile|- 		: IMDL file (- is the standard input)

-no-generic-idl 		: the EyeDB generic IDL file eyedb.idl will not


be automatically included in the IDML file

-generic-idl idlfile 		: give the location of the EyeDB generic IDL file eyedb.idl

-no-factory 		: the factory interface will not be generated

-sync yes|no 		: the backend runtime objects will be synchronized

(yes: the default), or not synchronized (no)


with the database.

-comments yes|no 		: does (yes) or does not (no) generate mapping


comments in the IDL




the following option must be added to the -update option:

-db dbname 		: the database for which operation is performed

odlfile|- 		: input ODL file (- is the standard input)




the following options can be added to the -update option:

-schema-name schname 		: schema name (default is package)

-db-class-prefix prefix 		: prefix to be put at the begining of each database class

-admin 		: opens the database in admin mode.




the following options must be added to the -diff option:

-db dbname 		: the database for which the schema


difference is performed

odlfile 		: the input ODL file for which the schema


difference is performed




the following option must be added to the -checkfile option:

odlfile|- 		: input ODL file (- is the standard input)




the following options can be added when an odlfile is set:

-cpp cpp 		: uses cpp preprocessor instead of


the default one

-cpp-flags cpp-flags 		: adds cpp-flags to the preprocessing command

-no-cpp 		: does not use any preprocessor.
