<description>

<p>
The diameterc utility is used to compile diameter
<seealso marker="diameter_dict">dictionary files</seealso>
into Erlang source.
The resulting source implements the interface diameter requires
to encode and decode the dictionary's messages and AVP's.</p>

</description>

<section>
<title>USAGE</title>

<taglist>

<tag><![CDATA[diameterc [<options>] <file>]]></tag>
<item>
<p>
Compiles a single dictionary file. Valid options are as follows.</p>

<!-- Leave -h/d/v undocumented, except for the usage message from the
     utility itself. -->

<taglist>
<tag><![CDATA[-o <dir>]]></tag>
<item>
<p>
Specifies the directory into which the generated source should be written.
Defaults to the current working directory.</p>
</item>

<tag><![CDATA[-i <dir>]]></tag>
<item>
<p>
Specifies a directory to add to the code path.
Use to point at beam files compiled from inherited dictionaries,
<c>@inherits</c> in a dictionary file creating a beam dependency, not
an erl/hrl dependency.</p>

<p>
Multiple <c>-i</c> options can be specified.</p>
</item>

<tag><![CDATA[-E]]></tag>
<tag><![CDATA[-H]]></tag>
<item>
<p>
Supresses erl and hrl generation, respectively.</p>
</item>

<tag><![CDATA[--name <name>]]></tag>
<tag><![CDATA[--prefix <prefix>]]></tag>
<item>
<p>
Set <c>@name</c> and <c>@prefix</c> in the dictionary,
respectively.
Overrides any setting in the file itself.</p>
</item>

<tag><![CDATA[--inherits <dict>]]></tag>
<item>
<p>
Append an <c>@inherits</c> to the dictionary before compiling.
Specifying <c>'-'</c> as the dictionary has the effect of clearing any
previous inherits, causing them to be ignored.</p>

<p>
Multiple <c>--inherits</c> options can be specified.</p>
