Compiler Options

Options are specified in the object passed to the jscc function when using JS/CC as a module. When using JS/CC from the command line, options are specified as command-line arguments prefixed with two hyphens.

out_file	string	Empty string, meaning to print to standard output or the engine's equivalent	The path of the output file.
src_file	string	Empty string, meaning to read from standard input or the engine's equivalent	The path of the input grammar file.
tpl_file	string	A default template file for generic compilation tasks.	The path of the input template file.
input	string or function	None	If a string, the contents of the input grammar. If a function, a function that returns the contents of the grammar. When input is specified, src_file is ignored.
template	string or function	None	If a string, the contents of the template. If a function with no arguments, a function that returns the contents of the template. When template is specified, tpl_file is ignored.
outputCallback	function(string)	None	A function with a parameter that will be called with the output. When outputCallback is specified, out_file is ignored.
dump_nfa	boolean	false	Whether to output the nondeterministic finite automata for debugging purposes.
dump_dfa	boolean	false	Whether to output the deterministic finite automata for debugging purposes.

logLevel	string or member of the jscc.enums.LOG_LEVEL enumeration (FATAL, ERROR, WARN, INFO, DEBUG , TRACE)	WARN	The logging level.
throwIfErrors	boolean	false	Whether to throw an exception before completion of the main method if there are any compilation errors. Not available from the command line.
