You may need to set certain environment variables before using the command line. For more information, see Specifying the Location of Compiler Components.
Use the compiler with the OS/language specific invocations below.
Linux:
Invoke the compiler using icx or icpx (for C++) or dpcpp (for DPC++) to compile LLVM C/C++DPC++ source files.
The icx or icpx (for C/C++) or dpcpp (for DPC++) command does the following:
Windows:
You can invoke the compiler on the command line using the icx (for C/C++) or dpcpp (for DPC++) command. This command:
When compilation occurs with the compiler, many tools may be called to complete the task which may reproduce diagnostics unique to the given tool. For instance, the linker may return a message if it cannot resolve a global reference. The watch option can help clarify which component is generating the error.
When you invoke the compiler, the syntax is: This content is specific to DPC++.
// (Linux) dpcpp [options] file1 [file2...]
// (Windows) dpcpp [options] file1 [file2...] [/link link_options]This content is specific to C++; it does not apply to DPC++.
// (Linux) {icx|icpx} [options] file1 [file2...]
// (Windows) icx [options] file1 [file2...] [/link link_options]
Argument |
Description |
---|---|
options |
Indicates one or more command line options. On Linux systems, the compiler recognizes one or more letters preceded by a hyphen (-). On Windows, options are preceded by a slash (/). This includes linker options. Options are not required when invoking the compiler. The default behavior of the compiler implies that some options are ON by default when invoking compiler. |
file1, file2... |
Indicates one or more files to be processed by the compiler. You can specify more than one file, using space as a delimiter for multiple files. |
/link (Windows) |
All options following /link are passed to the linker. Compiler options must precede link if they are not to be passed to the linker. |
