Top Forums Programming update executable file Post 8964 by anent on Friday 19th of October 2001 03:40:52 PM

Thanks rwb & MacMonster,
I want to clear out a little bit.
I have my executable file ready. and if i make changes in the source code and again if i compile the code. it takes the same time for compiling.

what i need is : the already available executable should be updated without overwriting with the executable created with the same name.

ie.,
gcc test.c -o myprog
o/p : myprog - executable file
if i run it again, - after small modification
gcc test.c -o myprog
o/p : myprog - exe file - but same compiling time.
but the modification made to the source is a little bit.

Idea:
Case 1; If i create some modules of C source codes.and if i modify the code to any one of the module.
How can i reduce my runtime of the exe file creation.
Case 2; If it is a single module.. then.

any inputs are appreciated.

sc-config

SC-CONFIG(1)						      General Commands Manual						      SC-CONFIG(1)

NAME

       sc-config - script to get information about the installed version of SC

SYNOPSIS

       sc-config  [--prefix[=DIR]  ]  [--exec-prefix[=DIR]  ]  [--version]  [--libs]  [--cppflags]  [--cc] [--cflags] [--cxx] [--cxxflags] [--f77]
       [--f77flags]

DESCRIPTION

       The sc-config program can be used to obtain the compilers, compiler options and libraries needed to use the SC (Scientific Computing) tool-
       kit from your program.

OPTIONS

       The sc-config program returns information about how SC was compiled and installed. The following information is available:

       --prefix
	       The directory where SC is installed.

       --version
	       The version of SC.

       --libdir
	       The directory were the libraries are found.

       --libs  The libraries and library paths needed to link.

       --cppflags
	       The include directories needed to build.

       --cc    The C compiler.

       --cflags
	       The C compiler flags.

       --cxx   The C++ compiler.

       --cxxflags
	       The C++ compiler flags.

       --f77   The FORTRAN 77 compiler.

       --f77flags
	       The FORTRAN 77 compiler flags.

EXAMPLES

       To use the sc-config program to link your executable to SC, use a Makefile for GNU make similar to the following:

	      SCCONFIG = /usr/bin/sc-config
	      CXX := $(shell $(SCCONFIG) --cxx)
	      CXXFLAGS := $(shell $(SCCONFIG) --cxxflags)
	      CPPFLAGS := $(shell $(SCCONFIG) --cppflags)
	      LIBS := $(shell $(SCCONFIG) --libs)

	      myprog: myprog.o
		      $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) -o $@ $^ $(LIBS)
