okay so welcome to the General Commands Manual entry for migcom, bestie! this is the Mach Interface Generator COMpiler, and it's here to serve compiler realness ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

migcom - Mach Interface Generator COMpiler

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

migcom is literally the actual compiler used by the mig command to generate Remote Procedure Call (RPC) source code for client-server style Mach IPC from specification files. no cap 🫶

🫶 heads up: it is not normally used independently. rather, it's invoked by the mig command after pre-processing the provided specifications file with the C preprocessor. it's only documented here for the sake of completeness, bestie — that's the whole reason this page exists 💅
