qdbusxml2cpp-fix(1)

💖 qdbusxml2cpp-fix — the manual page, but make it make sense 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to qdbusxml2cpp-fix(1), the user command that literally turns your interface definitions into C++ code. yes, actually. it's giving codegen main character energy and we're obsessed. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

qdbusxml2cpp-fix — produces the C++ code to implement the interfaces defined in the input file 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

qdbusxml2cpp-fix [options...] [xml-or-xml-file] [interfaces...]

that's it, that's the whole vibe. options first, then your xml or xml file, then whichever interfaces you want. slay.

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so literally what it does: it produces the C++ code to implement the interfaces that are defined in the input file. that's the whole thing. no cap. it reads your definitions, it hands you back C++, and you go live your life. ✨

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• -a <filename> — write the adaptor code to <filename>. yes queen, that's where the adaptor lives now.
• -c <classname> — use <classname> as the class name for the generated classes. name your baby, bestie.
• -h — show this information. hi hello here's the help 🫶
• -i <filename> — add #include to the output. slipping an include in there, sneaky but iconic.
• -l <classname> — when generating an adaptor, use <classname> as the parent class. it's giving family tree 🌈
• -m — generate #include "filename.moc" statements in the .cpp files. moc girlies rise 👑
• -N — don't use namespaces. we're going namespace-less today, periodt.
• -p <filename> — write the proxy code to <filename>. proxy rights 💖
• -v — be verbose. tell me everything, i wanna know 😭
• -V — show the program version and quit. short and sweet, in and out.

lowkey important detail alert 🚨 — if the file name you hand to -a and -p does not end in .cpp or .h, the program will automatically append the suffixes and produce both files. so you get a little bonus, bestie. and you can also use a colon (:) to separate the header name from the source file name, like this:

-a filename_p.h:filename.cpp

and if you pass a dash (-) as the argument to either -p or -a, the output is written to the standard output. stdout girlies, this one's for you 💜
