Top Forums Programming How Can a Machine Reads a Compiler Since A Compiler is Written in Text! Not Binaries? Post 302257628 by f.ben.isaac on Wednesday 12th of November 2008 05:24:58 PM

I still don't get it.....A compiler is binary, so its been executed, so what compiled the compiler! And the compiler compiler's in what language was written?

It is not a big deal, but i just find it hard to take it. Maybe its my problem :-/

C compiler to build Sparc/Solaris binaries on Linux

Just that the Subject says. I am looking for a C compiler for Linux x86 that will allow me to compile a C source code file and the resulting binary will be able to run on a Sparc running Solaris. Thanks. (2 Replies)

NAME
qd-config - determine flags for compilation and linking SYNOPSIS
qd-config [options] DESCRIPTION
To link a Fortran-90 program with the C++ qd library, it is recommended to link with the C++ compiler used to generate the library. The Fortran 90 interface (along with a C-style main function calling f_main) is found in the qdmod library. The qd-config script can be used to determine which flags to pass to compile and link your programs. OPTIONS
--src Switch between source and system location. --prefix Output configured prefix value. --exec-prefix Output configured exec_prefix value. --build-flags Compiler options used during build. --build-libs Linker options used during build. --configure-args Configure arguments used for build. --cxx C++ compiler. --cflags C++ preprocessor and compiler options. --cxxflags C++ compiler options. --libs-la C++ linker options and libtool archive location. --libs C++ linker options. --fc Fortran compiler. --fcflags Fortran compiler options. --fclibs Fortran linker options. --fmainlib C++ linker options for main program written in Fortran. --version Output version.
