NAME

       cc, pcc - C compiler

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ option ] ... file ...

       pcc [ option ] ... file ...

DESCRIPTION

       Cc is the UNIX C compiler.  It accepts several types of arguments:

       Arguments whose names end with `.c' are taken to be C source programs; they are compiled, and each object program is left on the file whose
       name is that of the source with `.o' substituted for `.c'.  The `.o' file is normally deleted, however, if a single C program  is  compiled
       and loaded all at one go.

       In the same way, arguments whose names end with `.s' are taken to be assembly source programs and are assembled, producing a `.o' file.

       The following options are interpreted by cc.  See ld(1) for load-time options.

       -c      Suppress the loading phase of the compilation, and force an object file to be produced even if only one program is compiled.

       -p      Arrange	for  the  compiler  to produce code which counts the number of times each routine is called; also, if loading takes place,
	       replace the standard startup routine by one which automatically calls monitor(3) at the start and arranges to write out	a  mon.out
	       file at normal termination of execution of the object program.  An execution profile can then be generated by use of prof(1).

       -f      In  systems  without  hardware floating-point, use a version of the C compiler which handles floating-point constants and loads the
	       object program with the floating-point interpreter.  Do not use if the hardware is present.

       -O      Invoke an object-code optimizer.

       -S      Compile the named C programs, and leave the assembler-language output on corresponding files suffixed `.s'.

       -P      Run only the macro preprocessor and place the result for each `.c' file in a corresponding `.i' file and has no `#' lines in it.

       -E      Run only the macro preprocessor and send the result to the standard output.  The output is intended for compiler debugging;  it	is
	       unacceptable as input to cc.

       -o output
	       Name the final output file output.  If this option is used the file `a.out' will be left undisturbed.

       -Dname=def
       -Dname  Define the name to the preprocessor, as if by `#define'.  If no definition is given, the name is defined as 1.

       -Uname  Remove any initial definition of name.

       -Idir   `#include'  files whose names do not begin with `/' are always sought first in the directory of the file argument, then in directo-
	       ries named in -I options, then in directories on a standard list.

       -Bstring
	       Find substitute compiler passes in the files named string with the suffixes cpp, c0, c1 and c2.	If string is empty, use a standard
	       backup version.

       -t[p012]
	       Find  only  the designated compiler passes in the files whose names are constructed by a -B option.  In the absence of a -B option,
	       the string is taken to be `/usr/c/'.

       Other arguments are taken to be either loader option arguments, or C-compatible object programs, typically produced by an earlier  cc  run,
       or perhaps libraries of C-compatible routines.  These programs, together with the results of any compilations specified, are loaded (in the
       order given) to produce an executable program with name a.out.

       The major purpose of the `portable C compiler', pcc, is to serve as a model on which to base other compilers.  Pcc does not support options
       -f, -E, -B, and -t.  It provides, in addition to the language of cc, unsigned char type data and initialized bit fields.

DIAGNOSTICS

       The  diagnostics produced by C itself are intended to be self-explanatory.  Occasional messages may be produced by the assembler or loader.
       Of these, the most mystifying are from the assembler, as(1), in particular `m', which means a multiply-defined external symbol (function or
       data).

BUGS

       Pcc is little tried on the PDP11; specialized code generated for that machine has not been well shaken down.  The -O optimizer was designed
       to work with cc; its use with pcc is suspect.
