vdlc	[-quiet] [-version] [-copyright] [-engine filename] [-noload vdlname] [-size mbytes] ... [vdl-data-file]

Vdlc is used internally by VFind to compile CVDL pattern definition files into internal memory data structures for fast pattern matching.

The -quiet flag makes vdlc produce less information about its processing. It can be given once, or twice for complete quiet (except in the case of errors).

The -version and -copyright flags make vdlc print version information and a copyright notice, respectively.

The -engine flag, where engine is the name of a VFind processing engine (see vdl.list(5) for a list of available engines), introduces the name of a file containing CVDL source code to be compile.

The -noload flags tell vdlc to not load a particular VDL.

The -size flags tells vdlc to not allocate more than this many MBytes for the data file.

The last argument is the target file for vdlc to write its output data to.

Vdlc uses only the files specified on the command line.

vfind(1), vdl.list(5), CVDL(5)
