A configuration file is used to determine the needed modules for a conversion. Loading and parsing such a configuration file would slow down programs that use <b>iconv<\/b>(3), so a caching mechanism is employed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em\">The <b>iconvconfig<\/b> program reads iconv module configuration files and writes a fast-loading gconv module configuration cache file.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em\">In addition to the system provided gconv modules, the user can specify custom gconv module directories with the environment variable <b>GCONV_PATH<\/b>. However, iconv module configuration caching is used only when the environment variable <b>GCONV_PATH<\/b> is not set.<\/p>\n<h2>OPTIONS <a name=\"OPTIONS\"><\/a> <\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em\"><b>\u2212\u2212nostdlib<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:22%;\">Do not search the system default gconv directory, only the directories provided on the command line.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:11%;\"><b>\u2212o<\/b> <i>outputfile<\/i><b>, \u2212\u2212output=<\/b><i>outputfile<\/i><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:22%;\">Use <i>outputfile<\/i> for output instead of the system default cache location.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:11%;\"><b>\u2212\u2212prefix=<\/b><i>pathname<\/i><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left:22%;\">Set the prefix to be prepended to the system pathnames.
