When specifying only one primary input file, the o (Output) option names
a single output file besides the listing file. Specifying multiple primary
input files, or not specifying an output filename, causes ic960 to use the
primary input filenames to derive corresponding default output filenames
with the form
filename . e , where:
filename is the primary input filename without its
extension.
e is a single-letter extension indicating the contents
of a file, as follows:
i indicates a preprocessed file from the
P (Preprocess-files) stop-after option.
s indicates an assembly-language file
from the
S (Save assembly) stop-after
option.
o indicates an object file from the c
(Create-object) stop-after option.
L indicates a listing file from the
z (List) option.
Unless otherwise specified, the destination directory for any output file is
the current working directory. If
filename.e already exists in the
destination directory, the compilation system overwrites the existing file.
The filename
a.out is the default for the executable COFF object file
from the linker, produced in the absence of the stop-after options and the
Output option. For ELF files, the default is
e.out.
Creating a linker configuration file containing information for preparing
an absolutely relocated module, a module for incremental linking, or code
ready for programming into read-only memory (ROM) allows for
additional file types. For more information on linker configuration, see
the i960 Processor Software Utilities User's Guide.
