# rmic-3.4(1)

Generate stubs for Remote Method Invocation

## NAME

rmic - Generate stubs for Remote Method Invocation

## SYNOPSIS

**rmic** \[**OPTION**\] ... *class* ...

## DESCRIPTION

**rmic** is a utility included with `"libgcj"` which generates stubs for remote objects.

Note that this program isn't yet fully compatible with the JDK **rmic**.  Some options, such as **-classpath**, are recognized but currently ignored.  We have left these options undocumented for now.

Long options can also be given with a GNU-style leading **--**.  For instance, **--help** is accepted.

## OPTIONS

- **-keep**

  - **-keepgenerated**

  By default, **rmic** deletes intermediate files.  Either of these options causes it not to delete such files.

- **-v1.1**

  Cause **rmic** to create stubs and skeletons for the 1.1 protocol version.

- **-vcompat**

  Cause **rmic** to create stubs and skeletons compatible with both the 1.1 and 1.2 protocol versions.  This is the default.

- **-v1.2**

  Cause **rmic** to create stubs and skeletons for the 1.2 protocol version.

- **-nocompile**

  Don't compile the generated files.

- **-verbose**

  Print information about what **rmic** is doing.

- **-d** *directory*

  Put output files in *directory*.  By default the files are put in the current working directory.

- **-help**

  Print a help message, then exit.

- **-version**

  Print version information, then exit.
