gtk2hsTypeGen [\|--tag\|.RI\|=tag...] [\|--lib\|.RI\|=lib\|] [\|--prefix\|.RI\|=prefix\|] [\|--modname\|.RI\|=modName\|] [\|--import\|.RI\|=[*]importName...] [\|--forward\|.RI\|=[*]fwdName...] [\|--destructor\|.RI\|=destrName\|] [\|--hierarchy\|.RI\|=hierName\|]

This manual page briefly describes the gtk2hsTypeGen command. It's a helper program necessary to build the Gtk2Hs suite of libraries.

The programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options are included below. For a complete description, see the other documentation.

gtk2hsTypeGen accepts the following options:

--tag=tag

generate entries that have the tag tag. Specify `default' for types without tags

--lib=lib

set the lib to use in the c2hs {#context #} declaration (the default is `gtk')

--prefix=prefix

set the prefix to use in the c2hs {#context #} declaration (the default is `gtk')

--modname=modName

specify module name if it does not match the file name, eg a hierarchical module name

--import="[*]"importName

additionally import this module without re-exporting it. Use an asterix as prefix if the import should be a .chs import statement, as well as exported from the generated module.

--forward="[*]"fwdName

specify a number of modules that are imported. Use an asterix as prefix if the import should be a .chs import statement, as well as exported from the generated module.

--destructor=destrName

specify a non-standard C function pointer that is called to destroy the objects

--hierarchy=hierName

the name of the file containing the hierarchy list, defaults to the built-in list
