Purpose
|
|
|
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This project contains a single executable, leaptable-compiler, which is
|
|
|
|
|
used to compile, dump or verify the contents of a table of leap seconds
|
|
|
|
|
in a format suitable for loading with libiso8601.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See http://www.lwithers.me.uk/usr/src/libiso8601/ for details.

In compile mode, it takes a text file (or stdin) with an ISO8601-format
|
|
|
|
|
date on each line. Each date corresponds to a day with a positive leap
|
|
|
|
|
second, e.g.:

This file is compiled into the binary format expected by libiso8601's
|
|
|
|
|
iso8601_leap_table_load() function.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In dump mode, the binary file is dumped into a text file. In verify
|
|
|
|
|
mode, the library is used to load a compiled file, and some basic tests
|
|
|
|
|
are performed to check the library behaviour matches what is expected.
