beware - windows programmer
env SunOS 5.6
shell ksh
I have just run cc on a very small program and it has produced an a.out file
The man pages say "The link editor will make an a.out executable if there were no errors in linking"
but they do not say how I turn it into an executable with the same name !
Is there anywhere else I can read up on the cc compiler ?
tia,
not sure if this answers you question or not but with my compiler I use
gcc prog.c -o outfile.exe
outfile.exe being the name of the file the compiler will create.
thank you both very much,
I think I prefer using -o rather than renamimg every file I create
when I typed man cc it produced two pages of text, but details about -o were not among them, that's why I asked for a link
excellent
ty
