<refsect1><title>Description</title>
36
<command>gdk-pixbuf-csource</command> is a small utility that generates
37
C code containing images, useful for compiling images directly into programs.
41
<refsect1><title>Invocation</title>
43
<command>gdk-pixbuf-csource</command> either takes as input one image file
44
name to generate code for, or, using the <option>--build-list</option> option,
45
a list of (<replaceable>name</replaceable>, <replaceable>image</replaceable>)
46
pairs to generate code for a list of images into named variables.
48
<refsect2><title>Options</title>
52
<term><option>--stream</option></term>
54
Generate pixbuf data stream (a single string containing a serialized
55
<structname>GdkPixdata</structname> structure in network byte order).
60
<term><option>--struct</option></term>
62
Generate GdkPixdata structure (needs the <structname>GdkPixdata</structname>
63
structure definition from <filename>gdk-pixdata.h</filename>).
68
<term><option>--macros</option></term>
70
Generate *_ROWSTRIDE, *_WIDTH, *_HEIGHT, *_BYTES_PER_PIXEL and
71
*_RLE_PIXEL_DATA or *_PIXEL_DATA macro definitions for the image.
76
<term><option>--rle</option></term>
78
Enables run-length encoding for the generated pixel data (default).
83
<term><option>--raw</option></term>
85
Disables run-length encoding for the generated pixel data.
90
<term><option>--extern</option></term>
92
Generate extern symbols.
97
<term><option>--static</option></term>
99
Generate static symbols (default).
104
<term><option>--decoder</option></term>
106
Provide a *_RUN_LENGTH_DECODE(image_buf, rle_data, size, bpp) macro definition
107
to decode run-length encoded image data.
112
<term><option>--name=identifier</option></term>
114
Specifies the identifier name (prefix) for the generated variables or
115
macros (useful only if <option>--build-list</option> was not specified).
120
<term><option>--build-list</option></term>
122
Enables (<replaceable>name</replaceable>, <replaceable>image</replaceable>)
128
<term><option>-h</option>, <option>--help</option></term>
130
Print brief help and exit.
135
<term><option>-v</option>, <option>--version</option></term>
137
Print version and exit.
142
<term><option>--g-fatal-warnings</option></term>
144
Make warnings fatal (causes the program to abort).

<refsect1><title>Bugs</title>
161
The runlength encoder gets out of sync with the pixel boundaries, since
162
it includes the rowstride padding in the encoded stream. Furthermore, it
163
generates pixbufs with suboptimal rowstride in some cases.
