NAME

       extractattr - extract element attributes from UI and XML GUI files

SYNOPSIS

       extractattr --attr=name [ --attr=name ... ] [ --context=name ] file ...

       extractattr --help

DESCRIPTION

       extractattr finds all of the given element attributes within the  given
       files.   It  then  writes  the  corresponding  i18n() calls to standard
       output (usually redirected to rc.cpp) so that xgettext can parse  them.
       Only the attributes specified by --attr will be extracted.

       Both Qt designer (.ui) files and XML GUI (.rc) files are understood.

       This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.

OPTIONS

       --attr=name
              Specifies an attribute to be extracted.  This option may be used
              multiple times.
              The name argument must  be  of  the  form  Element,attribute  or
              Element,attribute,context.
              The  context is optional, and is used in constructing the i18n()
              calls.  If specified it will override the default context set by
              --context.

       --context=name
              Give all i18n() calls the given context: i18n("name", ...).

       --help Display a summary of options.

EXAMPLE

       extractattr --attr=Title,data --attr=Description,data,Stencils file.ui
