NAME glib-compile-resources - GLib resource compiler
SYNOPSIS glib-compile-resources [OPTION<?>] FILE

DESCRIPTION glib-compile-resources reads the resource description from FILE and the files that it references and creates a binary resource bundle that is suitable for use with the GResource API. The resulting bundle is then written out as-is, or as C source for linking into an application.
The XML resource files normally have the filename extension .gresource.xml. For a detailed description of the XML file format, see the GResource documentation.
OPTIONS -h, --help Print help and exit.
--version Print program version and exit.
--target <TARGET> Store the compiled resources in the file TARGET. If not specified a filename based on the FILE basename is used.
--sourcedir <DIRECTORY> The files referenced in FILE are loaded from this directory. If not specified, the current directory is used.
--generate Write the output file in the format selected for by its filename extension:
.c C source
.h C header
.gresource resource bundle
--generate-source Instead of a writing the resource bundle in binary form, create a C source file that contains the resource bundle. This can then be compiled into an application for easy access.
--generate-header Generate a header file for use with C code generated by --generate-source.
--generate-dependencies Prints the list of files that the resource bundle references to standard output. This can be used to track dependencies in the build
Also see --dependency-file.
--c-name Specify the prefix used for the C identifiers in the code generated by --generate-source and --generate-header.
--manual-register By default, code generated by --generate-source uses automatic initialization of the resource. This works on most systems by using the compiler support for constructors. However, some (uncommon) compilers may not support this, you can then specify --manual-register, which will generate custom register and unregister functions that your code can manually call at initialization and uninitialization time.
--internal By default, code generated by --generate-source declares all initialization functions as extern. So they are exported unless this is prevented by a link script or other means. Since libraries usually want to use the functions only internally it can be more useful to declare them as G_GNUC_INTERNAL which is what --internal does.
--external-data By default, code generated by --generate-source embeds the resource data as a string literal. When --external-data is given, the data is only declared in the generated C file, and the data has to be linked externally.
--dependency-file <FILE> Write dependencies in the same style as gcc -M -MF to the given file. If FILE is -, the dependencies are written to the standard output. Unlike --generate-dependencies, this option can be combined with other --generate options to generate dependencies as a side-effect of generating sources.
--generate-phony-targets When creating a dependency file with --dependency-file include phony targets in the same style as gcc -MP. This would typically be used with make.
--compiler <NAME> Generate code that is going to target the given compiler NAME. The current two compiler modes are gcc, for all GCC-compatible toolchains; and msvc, for the Microsoft Visual C Compiler. If this option isn't set, then the default will be taken from the CC environment variable.
ENVIRONMENT XMLLINT The full path to the xmllint executable. This is used to preprocess resources with the xml-stripblanks preprocessing option. If this environment variable is not set, xmllint is searched for in the PATH.
GDK_PIXBUF_PIXDATA Deprecated since gdk-pixbuf 2.32, as GResource supports embedding modern image formats without conversion. The full path to the json-glib-format executable. This is used to preprocess resources with the json-stripblanks preprocessing option. If this environment variable is not set, json-glib-format is searched for in the PATH.
