NAME

gensprep - compile StringPrep data from files filtered by filterRFC3454.pl

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

gensprep reads filtered RFC 3454 files and compiles their information into a binary form. The resulting file, <name>.icu , can then be read directly by ICU, or used by pkgdata (8) for incorporation into a larger archive or library.

The files read by gensprep are described in the FILES section.

OPTIONS

-h , -? , --help

Print help about usage and exit.

-v , --verbose

Display extra informative messages during execution.

-c , --copyright

Include a copyright notice into 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 .

ENVIRONMENT

ICU_DATA

Specifies the directory containing ICU data. Defaults to ${prefix}/share/icu/76.1/ . 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.

FILES
