Section 1 - Commands

Option	Description
-j javaDirectory	Specifies that generated Java files should be written to the given javaDirectory. This directory is independent of the -p option, if any.
-J filesFile	Specifies that a list of the files generated by idltojava should be written to filesFile
-p package-name	Specifies the name of an outer package to enclose all the generated Java. It has the same function as #pragma javaPackage. You must include an outer package. The compiler does not do this for you. If you do not have an outer package, the idltojava compiler will still generate Java files for you but you will get a Java compiler error when you try to compile the *.java files.
The following options are identical to the equivalent C/C++ compiler options (cpp):
-I directory	Specifies a directory or path to be searched for files that are #included in IDL files. This option is passed to the preprocessor.
-D symbol	Specifies a symbol to be defined during preprocessing of the IDL files. This option is passed to the preprocessor.
-U symbol	Specifies a symbol to be undefined during preprocessing of the IDL files. This option is passed to the preprocessor.

Description

-j javaDirectory

Specifies that generated Java files should be written to the given javaDirectory. This directory is independent of the -p option, if any.

-J filesFile

Specifies that a list of the files generated by idltojava should be written to filesFile

-p package-name

Specifies the name of an outer package to enclose all the generated Java. It has the same function as #pragma javaPackage.

You must include an outer package. The compiler does not do this for you. If you do not have an outer package, the idltojava compiler will still generate Java files for you but you will get a Java compiler error when you try to compile the *.java files.

The following options are identical to the equivalent C/C++ compiler options (cpp):

-I directory

Specifies a directory or path to be searched for files that are #included in IDL files. This option is passed to the preprocessor.

-D symbol

Specifies a symbol to be defined during preprocessing of the IDL files. This option is passed to the preprocessor.

-U symbol

Specifies a symbol to be undefined during preprocessing of the IDL files. This option is passed to the preprocessor.

Flag	Description
-flist-flags	Requests that the state of all the -f flags be printed. The default value of this flag is off.
-flist -debug-flags	Provides a list of debugger flags
-fcaseless	Request that case not be significant in keywords and identifiers. The default value of this flag is on.
-fclient	Requests the generation of the client side of the IDL files supplied. The default value of this flag is off.
-fcpp	Requests that the idl source be run through the C/C++ preprocessor before being compiled by the idltojava compiler. The default value of this flag is on.
-fignore-duplicates	Specifies that duplicate definitions be ignored. This may be useful if compiling multiple idl files at one time. The default value of this flag is off.
-flist-options	Lists the options specified on the command line. The default value of this flag is off.
-fmap-included-files	Specifies that java files be generated for definitions included by #include preprocessor directives. The default value for this flag is off which specifies that the java files for included definitions not be generated.
-fserver	Requests the generation of the server side of the IDL files supplied. The default value of this flag is off.
-fverbose	Requests that the compiler comment on the progress of the compilation. The default value of this flag is off.
-fversion	Requests that the compiler print its version and timestamp. The default value of this flag is off.
-fwarn-pragma	Requests that warning messages be issued for unknown or improperly specified #pragma's. The default value of this flag is on.
-fwrite-files	Requests that the derived java files be written. The default value of this flag is on. You might specify -fno-write-files if you wished to check for errors without actually writing the files.
