Compiler Command Syntax

The aCC command (the driver) invokes the HP aC++ compiling system.

aCC [options] [files]

You must use the aCC command to link your HP aC++ programs and libraries. This ensures that all libraries and other files needed by the linker are available.

Example:

aCC prog.C

This program compiles the source file prog.C and puts the executable code in the file a.out.

For a complete list of command line options, see Chapter 2 “Command-Line Options”.

Examples of the aCC Command

Following are some examples of the aCC command:

Compiling and Renaming an Output File

aCC -o prog prog.C

This command compiles prog.C and puts the executable code in the file prog, rather than in the default file a.out.

Compiling and Debugging

aCC -g prog.C

This command compiles prog.C and includes information that allows you to debug the program with the HP WDB Debugger, wdb.

Compiling Without Linking

aCC -c prog.C

This command compiles prog.C and puts the object code in the file prog.o. It neither links the object file nor creates an executable file.

Linking Object Files

aCC file1.o file2.o file3.o

This command links the listed object files (file1.o, file2.o, and file3.o) and puts the executable code in the file a.out.




	NOTE: You must use the `aCC` command to link your HP aC++ programs and libraries. This ensures that all libraries and other files needed by the linker are available.

Compiling, Optimizing, and Getting Verbose Information

aCC -O -v prog.C

This command compiles and optimizes prog.C, gives verbose progress reports, and creates an executable file a.out.

Compiling and Creating a Shared Library

aCC +z -c prog.C

aCC -b -o mylib.sl prog.o

The first line compiles prog.C, creates the object file prog.o, and puts the position-independent code (PIC) into the object file.

The second line creates the shared library mylib.sl, and puts the executable code into the shared library.
