Name

dxuil − user interface language compiler for X window system

Syntax

dxuil [ options ] file

Arguments

fileSpecifies the file to be compiled through the UIL compiler. 

Description

The dxuil command invokes the UIL compiler.  The XUI User Interface Language (UIL) is a specification language for describing the initial state of a user interface for an XUI application.  The specification describes the objects (menus, dialog boxes, labels, push buttons, and so on) used in the interface and specifies the routines to be called when the interface changes state as a result of user interaction. 

For more information about the UIL compiler, see the Guide to the XUI User Interface Language Compiler. 

Options

−IpathnameSpecify this option followed by a pathname, with no intervening spaces, to locate include files when the include directive is used.  This option causes the compiler to look for include files in the directory specified if the include files have not been found in the paths that have already been searched. 

−mMachine code is listed.  This directs the compiler to place in the listing file a description of the records that it added to the UID database.  This helps you isolate errors.  The default is no machine code. 

−o fileDirects the compiler to produce a user interface database (UID).  By default, UIL creates a UID with the name a.uid.  The file specifies the filename for the UID.  No UID will be produced if the compiler issues any diagnostics categorized as error or severe. 

−v fileDirects the compiler to generate a listing.  The file specifies the filename for the listing.  If the −v option is not present, no listing is generated by the compiler.  The default is no listing. 

−wSpecifies that the compiler suppress all warning and informational messages.  If this option is not present, all messages will be generated, regardless of the severity.
