NAME

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

If the input filename is "new" then an empty package is created. If the output filename is missing, then it is automatically generated from the input filename. If the input filename ends with an l, b, or e matching its platform properties, then the output filename will contain the letter from the -t, --type option.

This tool can also be used to just swap a single ICU data file, replacing the former icuswap tool. For this mode, provide the infilename (and optional outfilename) for a non-package ICU data file. Allowed options include -t, -w, -s and -d The filenames can be absolute, or relative to the source/dest dir paths. Other options are not allowed in this mode.

OPTIONS

-h, -?, --help

Print help about usage and exit.

-tl, --type l

Output for little-endian/ASCII charset family. The output type defaults to the input type.

-tb, --type b

Output for big-endian/ASCII charset family. The output type defaults to the input type.

-te, --type e

Output for big-endian/EBCDIC charset family. The output type defaults to the input type.

-c,--copyright

Include the ICU copyright notice in the resulting data.

-C, --comment comment

Include the specified comment in the resulting data instead of the ICU copyright notice.

-a, --add list

Add items from the list to the package. The list can be a single filename with a .txt file extension containing a list of item filenames, or an ICU .dat package filename.

-r, --remove list

Remove items from the list from the package. The list can be a single filename with a .txt file extension containing a list of item filenames, or an ICU .dat package filename.

-x, --extract list

Extract items from the list from the package. The list can be a single filename with a .txt file extension containing a list of item filenames, or an ICU .dat package filename.

-m, --matchmode mode

Set the matching mode for item names with wildcards.

-s, --sourcedir source

Set the source directory to source. The default source directory is the current directory.

-d, --destdir destination

Set the destination directory to destination. The default destination directory is the current directory.

-l, --list

List the package items to stdout (after modifying the package).

LIST FILE SYNTAX

Items for removal or extraction may contain a single * wildcard character. The * matches zero or more characters. If -m, --matchmode noslash is set, then the * character does not match the / character.

Items must be listed relative to the package, and the --sourcedir or the --destdir path will be prepended. The paths are only prepended to item filenames while adding or extracting items, not to ICU .dat package or list filenames.

Paths may contain / instead of the platform's file separator character and are converted as appropriate.
