48
49 The \c rcc tool is used to embed resources into a Qt application during
50 the build process. It works by generating a C++ source file containing
51 data specified in a Qt resource (.qrc) file.
52
53 Usage:
54 \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_rcc.qdoc 0
55
56 RCC accepts the following command line options:
57
58 \table
59 \header \o Option \o Argument \o Description
60
61 \row \o \c{-o} \o \o Writes output to file rather than
62 stdout.
63
64 \row \o \c{-name} \o \c name \o Creates an external initialization
65 function with name.
66
67 \row \o \c{-threshold} \o \c level \o Specifies a threshold (in bytes)
68 to use when compressing files. If
69 the file is smaller than the
70 threshold, it will not be
71 compressed, independent of what
72 the compression level is.
73
74 \row \o \c{-compress} \o \c level \o Compresses input files with the
75 given level. Level is an integer
76 from 1 to 9 - 1 being the fastest,
77 producing the least compression;
78 9 being the slowest, producing
79 the most compression.
80
81 \row \o \c{-root} \o \c path \o Prefixes the resource access path
82 with root path.
83
84 \row \o \c{-no-compress} \o \o Disables all compression.
85
86 \row \o \c{-binary} \o \o Outputs a binary file for use as
87 a dynamic resource.
88
89 \row \o \c{-version} \o \o Displays version information.
90
91 \row \o \c{-help} \o \o Displays usage information.
92 \endtable
