<p><span class="command">windmc</span> may be used to generator Windows message resources.

<!-- man begin DESCRIPTION windmc -->
|
|
<p><span class="command">windmc</span> reads message definitions from an input file (.mc) and
|
|
translate them into a set of output files. The output files may be of
|
|
four kinds:
|
|
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt><code>h</code><dd>A C header file containing the message definitions.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>rc</code><dd>A resource file compilable by the <span class="command">windres</span> tool.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>bin</code><dd>One or more binary files containing the resource data for a specific
|
|
message language.
|
|
|
|
<br><dt><code>dbg</code><dd>A C include file that maps message id's to their symbolic name.
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
<p>The exact description of these different formats is available in
|
|
documentation from Microsoft.
|
|
|
|
<p>When <span class="command">windmc</span> converts from the <code>mc</code> format to the <code>bin</code>
|
|
format, <code>rc</code>, <code>h</code>, and optional <code>dbg</code> it is acting like the
|
|
Windows Message Compiler.
