NAME
glib-compile-schemas - GSettings schema compiler
SYNOPSIS
glib-compile-schemas [option...] {directory}
DESCRIPTION
glib-compile-schemas compiles all the GSettings XML schema files in
directory into a binary file with the name gschemas.compiled that can
be used by GSettings. The XML schema files must have the filename
extension .gschema.xml. For a detailed description of the XML file
format, see the GSettings documentation.
At runtime, GSettings looks for schemas in the glib-2.0/schemas
subdirectories of all directories specified in the XDG_DATA_DIRS
environment variable. The usual location to install schema files is
/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas.
In addition to schema files, glib-compile-schemas reads 'vendor
override' files, which are key files that can override default values
for keys in the schemas. The group names in the key files are the
schema id, and the values are written in serialized GVariant form.
Options
-h, --help
Print help and exit
--targetdir=TARGETDIR
Store gschemas.compiled in TARGETDIR instead of directory.
--dry-run
Don't write gschemas.compiled. This option can be used to check
.gschema.xml sources for errors.
--allow-any-name
Do not enforce restrictions on key names. Note that this option is
purely to facility the transition from GConf, and will be removed
at some time in the future.
