|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B derb
|
|
reads the compiled resource
|
|
.I bundle
|
|
files passed on the command line and write them back in text form.
|
|
The resulting text files have a
|
|
.B .txt
|
|
extension while compiled resource bundle source files typically have a
|
|
.B .res
|
|
extension.
|
|
.PP
|
|
It is customary to name the resource bundles by their locale name,
|
|
i.e. to use a local identifier for the
|
|
.I bundle
|
|
filename, e.g.
|
|
.B ja_JP.res
|
|
for Japanese (Japan) data, or
|
|
.B root.res
|
|
for the root bundle.
|
|
This is especially important for
|
|
.B derb
|
|
since the locale name is not accessible directly from the compiled
|
|
resource bundle, and to know which locale to ask for when opening
|
|
the bundle.
|
|
.B derb
|
|
will produce a file whose base name is the base name of the compiled resource file itself.
|
|
If the
|
|
.BI "\-\-to\-stdout\fP, \fB\-c\fP"
|
|
option is used, however, the text will be written on the standard output.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR "\-h\fP, \fB\-?\fP, \fB\-\-help"
|
|
Print help about usage and exit.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR "\-V\fP, \fB\-\-version"
|
|
Print the version of
|
|
.B derb
|
|
and exit.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR "\-v\fP, \fB\-\-verbose"
|
|
Display extra informative messages during execution.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR "\-A\fP, \fB\-\-suppressAliases"
|
|
Don't follow aliases when producing output.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-e\fP, \fB\-\-encoding" " encoding"
|
|
Set the encoding used to write output files to
|
|
.IR encoding .
|
|
The default encoding is the invariant (subset of ASCII or EBCDIC)
|
|
codepage for the system (see section
|
|
.BR "INVARIANT CHARACTERS" ).
|
|
The choice of the encoding does not affect the data, just their
|
|
representation. Characters that cannot be represented in the
|
|
.I encoding
|
|
will be represented using
|
|
.BI \eu "hhhh"
|
|
escape sequences.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-\-bom"
|
|
Write a byte order mark (BOM) at the beginning of the file.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-l\fP, \fB\-\-locale" " locale"
|
|
Set the
|
|
.I locale
|
|
for the resource bundle, which is used both in the generated text and
|
|
as the base name of the output file.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-t\fP, \fB\-\-truncate" " \fR[ \fPsize\fR ]\fP"
|
|
Truncate individual resources (strings or binary data) to
|
|
.I size
|
|
bytes. The default if
|
|
.I size
|
|
is not specified is
|
|
.B 80
|
|
bytes.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-s\fP, \fB\-\-sourcedir" " source"
|
|
Set the source directory to
|
|
.IR source .
|
|
The default source directory is the current directory.
|
|
If
|
|
.B -
|
|
is passed for
|
|
.IR source ,
|
|
then the
|
|
.I bundle
|
|
will be looked for in its default location, specified by
|
|
the
|
|
.B ICU_DATA
|
|
environment variable (or defaulting to
|
|
the location set when ICU was built if
|
|
.B ICU_DATA
|
|
is not set).
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-d\fP, \fB\-\-destdir" " destination"
|
|
Set the destination directory to
|
|
.IR destination .
|
|
The default destination directory is specified by the environment variable
|
|
.BR ICU_DATA
|
|
or is the location set when ICU was built if
|
|
.B ICU_DATA
|
|
is not set.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-i\fP, \fB\-\-icudatadir" " directory"
|
|
Look for any necessary ICU data files in
|
|
.IR directory .
|
|
For example, when processing collation overrides, the file
|
|
.B ucadata.dat
|
|
must be located.
|
|
The default ICU data directory is specified by the environment variable
|
|
.BR ICU_DATA .
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI "\-c\fP, \fB\-\-to\-stdout"
|
|
Write the disassembled
|
|
.I bundle
|
|
on standard output instead of into a file.
|
|
.SH CAVEATS
|
|
When the option
|
|
.BI \-\-bom
|
|
is used, the character
|
|
.B U+FEFF
|
|
is written in the destination
|
|
.I encoding
|
|
regardless of whether it is a Unicode transformation format (UTF) or not.
|
|
This option should only be used with an UTF encoding, as byte order marks
|
|
are not meaningful for other encodings.
|
|
.SH INVARIANT CHARACTERS
|
|
The
|
|
.B invariant character set
|
|
consists of the following set of characters, expressed as a standard POSIX
|
|
regular expression:
|
|
.BR "[a-z]|[A-Z]|[0-9]|_| |+|-|*|/" .
|
|
This is the set which is guaranteed to be available regardless of code page.
|
|
.SH ENVIRONMENT
|
|
.TP 10
|
|
.B ICU_DATA
|
|
Specifies the directory containing ICU data. Defaults to
|
|
.BR @thepkgicudatadir@/@PACKAGE@/@VERSION@/ .
|
|
Some tools in ICU depend on the presence of the trailing slash. It is thus
|
|
important to make sure that it is present if
|
|
.B ICU_DATA
|
|
is set.
