varnishd -C

[Ken Brownfield]

varnishd -f /path/to/your/config.vcl -C

This will compile your VCL into C and emit it to stdout.  It will show prototypes for all of the VRT interface accessible from VCL, the structs representing your backend(s) and director(s), and the config itself.  The wiki is a little misleading (and -C isn't otherwise documented AFAIK): it's not a document per se, but it's extremely useful when writing inline C -- hunting down VRT definitions in the code is no fun.
