NAME
gcjh - generate header files from Java class files SYNOPSIS
gcjh [-stubs] [-jni] [-add text] [-append text] [-friend text] [-preprend text] [--classpath=path] [--CLASSPATH=path] [-Idir...] [-d dir...] [-o file] [-td dir] [-M] [-MM] [-MD] [-MMD] [--version] [--help] [-v] [--verbose] classname... DESCRIPTION
The "gcjh" program is used to generate header files from class files. It can generate both CNI and JNI header files, as well as stub implementation files which can be used as a basis for implementing the required native methods. OPTIONS
-stubs This causes "gcjh" to generate stub files instead of header files. By default the stub file will be named after the class, with a suf- fix of .cc. In JNI mode, the default output file will have the suffix .c. -jni This tells "gcjh" to generate a JNI header or stub. By default, CNI headers are generated. -add text Inserts text into the class body. This is ignored in JNI mode. -append text Inserts text into the header file after the class declaration. This is ignored in JNI mode. -friend text Inserts text into the class as a "friend" declaration. This is ignored in JNI mode. -prepend text Inserts text into the header file before the class declaration. This is ignored in JNI mode. --classpath=path --CLASSPATH=path -Idirectory -d directory -o file These options are all identical to the corresponding gcj options. -o file Sets the output file name. This cannot be used if there is more than one class on the command line. -td directory Sets the name of the directory to use for temporary files. -M Print all dependencies to stdout; suppress ordinary output. -MM Print non-system dependencies to stdout; suppress ordinary output. -MD Print all dependencies to stdout. -MMD Print non-system dependencies to stdout. --help Print help about "gcjh" and exit. No further processing is done. --version Print version information for "gcjh" and exit. No further processing is done. -v, --verbose Print extra information while running. All remaining options are considered to be names of classes. SEE ALSO
