.PD 0
\f(CB--help\fP
Print general usage information.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--help <binding>\fP

Print include path.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--nostdinc\fP
Prevents standard include path from being used.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--client-c\fP
Generate C client language binding.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--client-c\fP
Generate C core language binding.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--host-c\fP
Generate C host language binding.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--client-cxx\fP
Generate C++ client language binding.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--core-cxx\fP
Generate C++ core language binding.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--plugin\fP
Generate C++ plugin language binding.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--list-types\fP
Print all types defined in the idlfile. This option is used only for BSE internally to ease transition from C to C++ types.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--header (default)\fP
Generate header file.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--source\fP
Generate source file.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--prefix <\fIprefix\fP>\fP
C host/client language binding option, sets the prefix for C functions. The prefix ensures that no symbol clashes will occur between different programs/libraries which are using a binding, so it is important to set it to something unique to your application/library.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--init <\fIname\fP>\fP
Set the name of the init function for C host/core bindings.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--namespace <\fInamespace\fP>\fP
C++ client language binding, sets the namespace to use for the code. The namespace ensures that no symbol clashes will occur between different programs/libraries which are using a binding, so it is important to set it to something unique to your application/library.

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--lower (default)\fP
Select lower case identifiers in the C++ client language binding (create_midi_synth).

.TP
.PD 0
\f(CB--mixed\fP
Select mixed case identifiers in the C++ client language binding (createMidiSynth).
