|
|
|
|
|
The C preprocessor, often known as \fIcpp\fR, is a \fImacro processor\fR
|
|
|
|
|
that is used automatically by the C compiler to transform your program
|
|
|
|
|
before compilation. It is called a macro processor because it allows
|
|
|
|
|
you to define \fImacros\fR, which are brief abbreviations for longer
|
|
|
|
|
constructs.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The C preprocessor is intended to be used only with C and \*(C+ source
|
|
|
|
|
code. In the past, it has been abused as a general text processor. It
|
|
|
|
|
will choke on input which does not obey C's lexical rules. For
|
|
|
|
|
example, apostrophes will be interpreted as the beginning of character
|
|
|
|
|
constants, and cause errors. Also, you cannot rely on it preserving
|
|
|
|
|
characteristics of the input which are not significant to C\-family
|
|
|
|
|
languages. If a Makefile is preprocessed, all the hard tabs will be
|
|
|
|
|
removed, and the Makefile will not work.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
Having said that, you can often get away with using cpp on things which
|
|
|
|
|
are not C. Other Algol-ish programming languages are often safe
|
|
|
|
|
(Pascal, Ada, etc.) So is assembly, with caution. \fB\-traditional\-cpp\fR
|
|
|
|
|
mode preserves more white space, and is otherwise more permissive. Many
|
|
|
|
|
of the problems can be avoided by writing C or \*(C+ style comments
|
|
|
|
|
instead of native language comments, and keeping macros simple.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
Wherever possible, you should use a preprocessor geared to the language
|
|
|
|
|
you are writing in. Modern versions of the \s-1GNU\s0 assembler have macro
|
|
|
|
|
facilities. Most high level programming languages have their own
|
|
|
|
|
conditional compilation and inclusion mechanism. If all else fails,
|
|
|
|
|
try a true general text processor, such as \s-1GNU\s0 M4.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
C preprocessors vary in some details. This manual discusses the \s-1GNU\s0 C
|
|
|
|
|
preprocessor, which provides a small superset of the features of \s-1ISO\s0
|
|
|
|
|
Standard C. In its default mode, the \s-1GNU\s0 C preprocessor does not do a
|
|
|
|
|
few things required by the standard. These are features which are
|
|
|
|
|
rarely, if ever, used, and may cause surprising changes to the meaning
|
|
|
|
|
of a program which does not expect them. To get strict \s-1ISO\s0 Standard C,
|
|
|
|
|
you should use the \fB\-std=c89\fR or \fB\-std=c99\fR options, depending
|
|
|
|
|
on which version of the standard you want. To get all the mandatory
|
|
|
|
|
diagnostics, you must also use \fB\-pedantic\fR.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
This manual describes the behavior of the \s-1ISO\s0 preprocessor. To
|
|
|
|
|
minimize gratuitous differences, where the \s-1ISO\s0 preprocessor's
|
|
|
|
|
behavior does not conflict with traditional semantics, the
|
|
|
|
|
traditional preprocessor should behave the same way. The various
|
|
|
|
|
differences that do exist are detailed in the section \fBTraditional
|
|
|
|
|
Mode\fR.

|

.PP
|

For clarity, unless noted otherwise, references to \fB\s-1CPP\s0\fR in this

.SH "OPTIONS"

.IX Header "OPTIONS"
|
|
|
|
|
The C preprocessor expects two file names as arguments, \fIinfile\fR and
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fIoutfile\fR. The preprocessor reads \fIinfile\fR together with any
|
|
|
|
|
other files it specifies with \fB#include\fR. All the output generated
|
|
|
|
|
by the combined input files is written in \fIoutfile\fR.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
Either \fIinfile\fR or \fIoutfile\fR may be \fB\-\fR, which as
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fIinfile\fR means to read from standard input and as \fIoutfile\fR
|
|
|
|
|
means to write to standard output. Also, if either file is omitted, it
|
|
|
|
|
means the same as if \fB\-\fR had been specified for that file.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
Unless otherwise noted, or the option ends in \fB=\fR, all options
|
|
|
|
|
which take an argument may have that argument appear either immediately
|
|
|
|
|
after the option, or with a space between option and argument:
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-Ifoo\fR and \fB\-I foo\fR have the same effect.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
Many options have multi-letter names; therefore multiple single-letter
|
|
|
|
|
options may \fInot\fR be grouped: \fB\-dM\fR is very different from
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-d\ \-M\fR.
|
|
|
|
|
.IP "\fB\-D\fR \fIname\fR" 4

|
|
|
|
|
.IX Item "-D name=definition"
|
|
|
|
|
The contents of \fIdefinition\fR are tokenized and processed as if
|
|
|
|
|
they appeared during translation phase three in a \fB#define\fR
|
|
|
|
|
directive. In particular, the definition will be truncated by
|
|
|
|
|
embedded newline characters.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
If you are invoking the preprocessor from a shell or shell-like
|
|
|
|
|
program you may need to use the shell's quoting syntax to protect
|
|
|
|
|
characters such as spaces that have a meaning in the shell syntax.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
If you wish to define a function-like macro on the command line, write
|
|
|
|
|
its argument list with surrounding parentheses before the equals sign
|
|
|
|
|
(if any). Parentheses are meaningful to most shells, so you will need
|
|
|
|
|
to quote the option. With \fBsh\fR and \fBcsh\fR,
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-D'\fR\fIname\fR\fB(\fR\fIargs...\fR\fB)=\fR\fIdefinition\fR\fB'\fR works.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-D\fR and \fB\-U\fR options are processed in the order they

|
|
|
are given on the command line. All \fB\-imacros\fR \fIfile\fR and
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-include\fR \fIfile\fR options are processed after all
|
|
|

|

provided with a \fB\-D\fR option.
|
|
|
|
|
.IP "\fB\-undef\fR" 4
|
|
|
|
|
.IX Item "-undef"
|
|
|
|
|
Do not predefine any system-specific or GCC-specific macros. The
|
|
|
|
|
standard predefined macros remain defined.

|
|
|
.IP "\fB\-I\fR \fIdir\fR" 4
|

.IX Item "-I dir"

Add the directory \fIdir\fR to the list of directories to be searched

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
Directories named by \fB\-I\fR are searched before the standard
|
|
|
|
|
system include directories. If the directory \fIdir\fR is a standard
|
|
|
|
|
system include directory, the option is ignored to ensure that the
|
|
|
|
|
default search order for system directories and the special treatment
|
|

|
|
of system headers are not defeated
|

.IP "\fB\-o\fR \fIfile\fR" 4
|
|
|

.IX Item "-o file"
|
|
|
|
|
Write output to \fIfile\fR. This is the same as specifying \fIfile\fR
|
|
|
|
|
as the second non-option argument to \fBcpp\fR. \fBgcc\fR has a
|
|
|
|
|
different interpretation of a second non-option argument, so you must
|
|
|
|
|
use \fB\-o\fR to specify the output file.

\&\fB\-Wmultichar\fR and a warning about integer promotion causing a

Most trigraphs in comments cannot affect the meaning of the program.

However, a trigraph that would form an escaped newline (\fB??/\fR at

|
|
|
|
the end of a line) can, by changing where the comment begins or ends.

warnings inside a comment.

Warn about macros defined in the main file that are unused. A macro

Built-in macros, macros defined on the command line, and macros

.IP "\fB\-M\fR" 4
|
|
|
|
|
.IX Item "-M"
|
|
|
|
|
Instead of outputting the result of preprocessing, output a rule
|
|
|
|
|
suitable for \fBmake\fR describing the dependencies of the main
|
|
|
|
|
source file. The preprocessor outputs one \fBmake\fR rule containing
|
|
|
|
|
the object file name for that source file, a colon, and the names of all
|
|
|
|
|
the included files, including those coming from \fB\-include\fR or
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-imacros\fR command line options.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
Unless specified explicitly (with \fB\-MT\fR or \fB\-MQ\fR), the
|
|
|
|
|
object file name consists of the basename of the source file with any
|
|
|
|
|
suffix replaced with object file suffix. If there are many included
|
|
|
|
|
files then the rule is split into several lines using \fB\e\fR\-newline.
|
|
|
|
|
The rule has no commands.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
This option does not suppress the preprocessor's debug output, such as
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-dM\fR. To avoid mixing such debug output with the dependency
|
|
|
|
|
rules you should explicitly specify the dependency output file with
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-MF\fR, or use an environment variable like
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\s-1DEPENDENCIES_OUTPUT\s0\fR. Debug output
|
|
|
|
|
will still be sent to the regular output stream as normal.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
Passing \fB\-M\fR to the driver implies \fB\-E\fR, and suppresses
|
|
|
|
|
warnings with an implicit \fB\-w\fR.
|
|
|
|
|
.IP "\fB\-MM\fR" 4
|
|
|
|
|
.IX Item "-MM"
|
|
|
|
|
Like \fB\-M\fR but do not mention header files that are found in
|
|
|
|
|
system header directories, nor header files that are included,
|
|
|
|
|
directly or indirectly, from such a header.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
This implies that the choice of angle brackets or double quotes in an
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB#include\fR directive does not in itself determine whether that
|
|
|
|
|
header will appear in \fB\-MM\fR dependency output. This is a
|
|
|
|
|
slight change in semantics from \s-1GCC\s0 versions 3.0 and earlier.
|
|
|
|
|
.IP "\fB\-MF\fR \fIfile\fR" 4
|
|
|
|

.IX Item "-MF file"
|
|
|
|
|
When used with \fB\-M\fR or \fB\-MM\fR, specifies a
|
|
|
|
|
file to write the dependencies to. If no \fB\-MF\fR switch is given
|
|
|
|
|
the preprocessor sends the rules to the same place it would have sent
|
|
|
|
|
preprocessed output.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
When used with the driver options \fB\-MD\fR or \fB\-MMD\fR,
|

\&\fB\-MF\fR overrides the default dependency output file.

|
|
|
.IP "\fB\-MG\fR" 4
|
|
|
|
|
.IX Item "-MG"
|
|
|
|
|
In conjunction with an option such as \fB\-M\fR requesting
|
|
|
|
|
dependency generation, \fB\-MG\fR assumes missing header files are
|
|
|
|
|
generated files and adds them to the dependency list without raising
|
|
|
|
|
an error. The dependency filename is taken directly from the
|
|
|
|
|
\&\f(CW\*(C`#include\*(C'\fR directive without prepending any path. \fB\-MG\fR
|
|
|
|
|
also suppresses preprocessed output, as a missing header file renders
|
|
|
|
|
this useless.
|
|
|

This feature is used in automatic updating of makefiles.

.IP "\fB\-MP\fR" 4

.IX Item "-MP"
|
|
|
|

This option instructs \s-1CPP\s0 to add a phony target for each dependency
|
|
|
|
|
other than the main file, causing each to depend on nothing. These
|
|
|
|
|
dummy rules work around errors \fBmake\fR gives if you remove header
|
|
|
|
|
files without updating the \fIMakefile\fR to match.

Change the target of the rule emitted by dependency generation. By
|
|
|
|
|
default \s-1CPP\s0 takes the name of the main input file, including any path,
|
|
|
|
|
deletes any file suffix such as \fB.c\fR, and appends the platform's
|
|
|
|
|
usual object suffix. The result is the target.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
An \fB\-MT\fR option will set the target to be exactly the string you
|
|
|
|
|
specify. If you want multiple targets, you can specify them as a single
|
|
|
|
|
argument to \fB\-MT\fR, or use multiple \fB\-MT\fR options.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|

For example, \fB\-MT\ '$(objpfx)foo.o'\fR might give

.IP "\fB\-MD\fR" 4

.IX Item "-MD"
|

|
|
\&\fB\-MD\fR is equivalent to \fB\-M \-MF\fR \fIfile\fR, except that
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-E\fR is not implied. The driver determines \fIfile\fR based on
|
|
|
|
|
whether an \fB\-o\fR option is given. If it is, the driver uses its
|
|
|
|
|
argument but with a suffix of \fI.d\fR, otherwise it take the
|
|
|
|
|
basename of the input file and applies a \fI.d\fR suffix.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
If \fB\-MD\fR is used in conjunction with \fB\-E\fR, any
|

|
|
|
\&\fB\-o\fR switch is understood to specify the dependency output file, but if used without \fB\-E\fR, each \fB\-o\fR
|
|
|
|
|
is understood to specify a target object file.
|
|
|
|

Since \fB\-E\fR is not implied, \fB\-MD\fR can be used to generate

You should be prepared for side effects when using \fB\-C\fR; it

|
|

For example, comments appearing at the start of what would be a

In addition to the side-effects of the \fB\-C\fR option, the

This section describes the environment variables that affect how \s-1CPP\s0
|
|
|
|
|
operates. You can use them to specify directories or prefixes to use
|
|
|
|
|
when searching for include files, or to control dependency output.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
Note that you can also specify places to search using options such as
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-I\fR, and control dependency output with options like
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-M\fR. These take precedence over
|
|
|
|
|
environment variables, which in turn take precedence over the
|
|
|
|
|
configuration of \s-1GCC\s0.

Each variable's value is a list of directories separated by a special
|
|
|
|
|
character, much like \fB\s-1PATH\s0\fR, in which to look for header files.
|
|
|
|
|
The special character, \f(CW\*(C`PATH_SEPARATOR\*(C'\fR, is target-dependent and
|
|
|
|
|
determined at \s-1GCC\s0 build time. For Microsoft Windows-based targets it is a
|
|
|
|
|
semicolon, and for almost all other targets it is a colon.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp

|
|
|
\&\fB\s-1CPATH\s0\fR specifies a list of directories to be searched as if
|
|
|
|
|
specified with \fB\-I\fR, but after any paths given with \fB\-I\fR
|
|
|
|
|
options on the command line. This environment variable is used
|
|
|
|
|
regardless of which language is being preprocessed.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
The remaining environment variables apply only when preprocessing the
|
|
|
|
|
particular language indicated. Each specifies a list of directories
|
|
|
|
|
to be searched as if specified with \fB\-isystem\fR, but after any
|
|
|
|
|
paths given with \fB\-isystem\fR options on the command line.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
In all these variables, an empty element instructs the compiler to
|
|
|
|
|
search its current working directory. Empty elements can appear at the
|
|
|
|
|
beginning or end of a path. For instance, if the value of
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\s-1CPATH\s0\fR is \f(CW\*(C`:/special/include\*(C'\fR, that has the same
|
|
|
|
|
effect as \fB\-I.\ \-I/special/include\fR.

.IP "\fB\s-1DEPENDENCIES_OUTPUT\s0\fR" 4
|
|
|
|
|
.IX Item "DEPENDENCIES_OUTPUT"
|
|
|
|
|
If this variable is set, its value specifies how to output
|
|
|
|
|
dependencies for Make based on the non-system header files processed
|
|
|
|
|
by the compiler. System header files are ignored in the dependency
|
|
|
|
|
output.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
The value of \fB\s-1DEPENDENCIES_OUTPUT\s0\fR can be just a file name, in
|
|
|
|
|
which case the Make rules are written to that file, guessing the target
|
|
|
|
|
name from the source file name. Or the value can have the form
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fIfile\fR\fB \fR\fItarget\fR, in which case the rules are written to
|
|
|
|
|
file \fIfile\fR using \fItarget\fR as the target name.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sp
|
|
|
|
|
In other words, this environment variable is equivalent to combining
|
|
|
|
|
the options \fB\-MM\fR and \fB\-MF\fR,
|
|
|
|
|
with an optional \fB\-MT\fR switch too.

|
|
|
|
|
This variable is the same as \fB\s-1DEPENDENCIES_OUTPUT\s0\fR (see above),
|
|
|
|
|
except that system header files are not ignored, so it implies
|
|
|
|
|
\&\fB\-M\fR rather than \fB\-MM\fR. However, the dependence on the
|
|
|
|
|
main input file is omitted.
