If it +is omitted then ``stdin`` is used. + +The full set of command line options is: + +.. program:: sip + +.. cmdoption:: -h + + Display a help message. + +.. cmdoption:: -V + + Display the SIP version number. + +.. cmdoption:: -a <FILE> + + The name of the QScintilla API file to generate. This file contains a + description of the module API in a form that the QScintilla editor + component can use for auto-completion and call tips. (The file may also be + used by the SciTE editor but must be sorted first.) By default the file is + not generated. + +.. cmdoption:: -b <FILE> + + The name of the build file to generate. This file contains the information + about the module needed by the :ref:`SIP build system <ref-build-system>` + to generate a platform and compiler specific Makefile for the module. By + default the file is not generated. + +.. cmdoption:: -c <DIR> + + The name of the directory (which must exist) into which all of the + generated C or C++ code is placed. By default no code is generated. + +.. cmdoption:: -d <FILE> + + The name of the documentation file to generate. Documentation is included + in specification files using the :directive:`%Doc` and + :directive:`%ExportedDoc` directives. By default the file is not + generated. + +.. cmdoption:: -e + + Support for C++ exceptions is enabled. This causes all calls to C++ code + to be enclosed in ``try``/``catch`` blocks and C++ exceptions to be + converted to Python exceptions. By default exception support is disabled. + +.. cmdoption:: -g + + The Python GIL is released before making any calls to the C/C++ library + being wrapped and reacquired afterwards. See :ref:`ref-gil` and the + :fanno:`ReleaseGIL` and :fanno:`HoldGIL` annotations. + +.. cmdoption:: -I <DIR> + + The directory is added to the list of directories searched when looking for + a specification file given in an :directive:`%Include` or + :directive:`%Import` directive. This option may be given any number of + times. + +.. cmdoption:: -j <NUMBER> + + The generated code is split into the given number of files. This makes it + easier to use the parallel build facility of most modern implementations of + ``make``. By default 1 file is generated for each C structure or C++ + class. + +.. cmdoption:: -k + + .. versionadded:: 4.10 + + All functions and methods will, by default, support passing parameters + using the Python keyword argument syntax. + +.. cmdoption:: -o + + .. versionadded:: 4.10 + + Docstrings will be automatically generated that describe the signature of + all functions, methods and constructors. + +.. cmdoption:: -p <MODULE> + + The name of the :directive:`%ConsolidatedModule` which will contain the + wrapper code for this component module. + +.. cmdoption:: -P + + .. versionadded:: 4.10 + + By default SIP generates code to provide access to protected C++ functions + from Python. On some platforms (notably Linux, but not Windows) this code + can be avoided if the ``protected`` keyword is redefined as ``public`` + during compilation. This can result in a significant reduction in the size + of a generated Python module. This option disables the generation of the + extra code. + +.. cmdoption:: -r + + Debugging statements that trace the execution of the bindings are + automatically generated. By default the statements are not generated. + +.. cmdoption:: -s <SUFFIX> + + The suffix to use for generated C or C++ source files. By default ``.c`` + is used for C and ``.cpp`` for C++. + +.. cmdoption:: -t <TAG> + + The SIP version tag (declared using a :directive:`%Timeline` directive) or + the SIP platform tag (declared using the :directive:`%Platforms` directive) + to generate code for. This option may be given any number of times so long + as the tags do not conflict. + +.. cmdoption:: -w + + The display of warning messages is enabled. By default warning messages + are disabled. + +.. cmdoption:: -x <FEATURE> + + The feature (declared using the :directive:`%Feature` directive) is + disabled. + +.. cmdoption:: -z <FILE> + + The name of a file containing more command line options. |
