NAME

       iio_genxml - Generate XML representation of a Libiio context

SYNOPSIS

       iio_genxml [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

       iio_genxml is a utility for generating a XML representation of a Libiio context.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Tells iio_genxml to display some help, and then quit.

       -V, --version
              Prints  the  version  information  for  this  particular copy of iio_genxml and the version of the
              libiio library it is using. This is  useful  for  knowing  if  the  version  of  the  library  and
              iio_genxml on your system are up to date. This is also useful when reporting bugs.

       -S, --scan [backends]
              Scan  for  available  IIO  contexts,  optional arg of specific backend(s) 'ip', 'usb' or 'ip:usb'.
              Specific options for USB include Vendor ID, Product ID  to  limit  scanning  to  specific  devices
              'usb=0456,b673'.  vid,pid are hexadecimal numbers (no prefix needed), "*" (match any for pid only)
              If no argument is given, it checks all that are available.

       -u, --uri
              The Uniform Resource Identifier (uri) for connecting to devices, can be one of:

              ip:[address]
                     network address, either numeric (192.168.0.1) or network hostname

              ip:    blank, if compiled with zeroconf support, will find an IIO device on network

              usb:[device:port:instance]
                     normally returned from iio_genxml -S

              serial:[port],[baud],[settings]
                     which  are  controlled,  and  need  to match the iiod (or tinyiiod) on the other end of the
                     serial port.

                     [port] is something like '/dev/ttyUSB0' on Linux, and 'COM4' on Windows.

                     [baud] is is normally one of 110, 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600,  14400,  19200,  38400,
                            57600, 115200 [default], 128000 or 256000, but can vary system to system.

                     [settings]
                            would normally be configured as '8n1' this is controlled by:

                            data_bits:
                                   (5, 6, 7, 8 [default], or 9)

                            parity_bits:
                                   ('n' none [default], 'o' odd, 'e' even, 'm' mark, or 's' space)

                            stop_bits:
                                   (1 [default, or 2)

                            flow_control:
                                   ('0' none [default], 'x' Xon Xoff, 'r' RTSCTS, or 'd' DTRDSR)

              local: with no address part.

RETURN VALUE

       If the specified device is not found, a non-zero exit code is returned.
