compile_model

Purpose
Compile a Mosel source file to a binary model (BIM) file.
Synopsis
procedure compile_model(src_file, dst_file=None, options=None, user_comment=None, password_file=None, private_key=None, public_keys_file=None)
Arguments
src_file 
Path to the Mosel source file ( .mos). May contain environment variable references using ${varname} notation.
dst_file 
Path for the output BIM file. If None, uses the source file path with .bim extension.
options 
Compiler options string (options separated by spaces or - symbols):
g 
Include debugging information (error locations, all symbols visible to Model.find_identifier)
G 
Include tracing information (step-by-step debugging, all symbols visible to Model.find_identifier)
p 
Parse only (syntax analysis, no output file)
ni 
Disable implicit declarations
na 
Disable assertions in debug mode
wi 
Warn on implicit declarations
wu 
Report unused public symbols
we 
Treat warnings as errors
D 
Generate and record documentation annotations
S 
Sign the BIM file
E 
Encrypt the BIM file
F 
Interpret password_file as file name (not password itself)
V 
Only load signed packages with verified signatures
T 
Only load signed packages with valid signatures
user_comment 
Commentary text saved at the beginning of the BIM file
password_file 
Password or password file for encryption
private_key 
Private key file for BIM file signing
public_keys_file 
File of public keys (each line is a key file name) for encryption with multiple recipients
Example
Compile with documentation annotations: 
mp.compile_model("model.mos", "model.bim", "D")
Further information
1. Raises an exception if compilation fails with one of the following causes: syntax error or file access error, semantic error, error writing output file, or license error.
2. When using public_keys_file for encryption, the BIM file is encrypted for each listed public key, allowing decryption by any corresponding private key.
