directfb-csource - C code generation utility for DirectFB surfaces
SYNOPSIS
directfb-csource [options] <imagefiles>
DESCRIPTION
directfb-csource is a small utility that reads PNG (Portable Network Graphics) image files and generates C code that can be used to compile
an image into a DirectFB application. Below is a simple example to illustrate this.
If multiple PNG image files are passed to directfb-csource, they are combined into a single surface. The different images can then be blit-
ted from this surface using the array of rectangles that is also dumped. This can be useful for example for icons or sprites.
OPTIONS --name=identifier
Specifies the identifier name (prefix) for the generated variables. If this option is not used, the identifier is generated from
the filename. You have to specify an identifer name when processing multiple images.
--format=pixelformat
Specifies the pixel-format of the generated inline surface. Possible values are ARGB, RGB32, RGB24, RGB16, RGB15, RGB332, A8 and
LUT8. By default the format is ARGB if the PNG image has an alpha channel or RGB32 otherwise.
--version
Output version information.
--help Print brief help and exit.
EXAMPLE
Generate a header file from a PNG image file:
directfb-csource --name=foo foo.png > foo.h
Include the generated header in your application and create a surface using the surface description from the header file:
#include <directfb.h>
#include "foo.h"
IDirectFB *dfb;
IDirectFBSurface *surface;
...
dfb->CreateSurface( dfb, &foo_desc, &surface );
OTHER INFO
directfb-csource was inspired by and uses code from gdk-pixbuf-csource, a similar program written by Tim Janik.

SYNOPSIS
exo-csource [options] [file]
exo-csource [options] --build-list [[name] [file]...]
DESCRIPTION
exo-csource is a small utility that generates C code containing arbitrary data, useful for compiling texts or other data directly into
programs.
INVOCATION
exo-csource either takes as input one file name to generate code for, or, using the --build-list option, a list of (name, file) pairs to
generate code for a list of images into named variables.
Options
-h, --help
Print brief help and exit.
-v, --version
Print version information and exit.
--extern
Generate extern symbols.
--static
Generate static symbols (default).
--name=identifier
Specifies the identifier name (prefix) for the generated variables (only used if --build-list was not specified as well).
--build-list
Enables (name, file) pair parsing mode.
