Otherwise, the shortName is used. - - The base name (let's call it 'base') will then be used to - create the C macros SN_base, LN_base, NID_base and OBJ_base. - - Note that if the base name contains spaces, dashes or periods, - those will be converte to underscore. - -Then there are some extra commands: - - !Alias foo 1 2 3 4 - - This just makes a name foo for an OID. The C macro - OBJ_foo will be created as a result. - - !Cname foo - - This makes sure that the name foo will be used as base name - in C. - - !module foo - 1 2 3 4 : shortName : Long Name - !global - - The !module command was meant to define a kind of modularity. - What it does is to make sure the module name is prepended - to the base name. !global turns this off. This construction - is not recursive. - -Lines starting with # are treated as comments, as well as any line starting -with ! and not matching the commands above. - |
