5.8.1 XC-DSC Global (Global Options)
Set up global options for all XC-DSC language tools. See the 5.7.7 Options Page Features section for more information.
Notes:
- N/A means MPLAB X IDE option not available in VS Code.
- VSC means VS Code option is not available in MPLAB X IDE.
| Option | Description | Command Line |
|---|---|---|
| Override default device support | Check to automatically handle issuing the DFP (device file
pack) location (-mdfp). Uncheck to allow compiler defaults. | |
| Output file format | N/A | |
| Define common macros | Add macros common to compiler, assembler and linker. | -Dmacro |
| Generic build | N/A | |
| Don’t delete intermediate files | Check to not delete intermediate files. Place
them in the object directory and name them based on the source file. Uncheck to remove intermediate files after a build. | -save-temps=obj |
| Partition | VSC: The partition defines which partition this image will be generated for and loaded in. | -Idir |
| Common include dirs | Directory paths entered here will be appended
to the already existing include paths of the compiler. Relative paths are from the MPLAB X IDE project directory. | -Idir |
| Elf file to use for preserved locations | Elf file which will be used to look up previous defined
sections and use the locations from that object file for the new compiled
project. Relative paths are from MPLAB X project directory. | --preserved="file.elf" |
| Preserve locations on C files only | Preserve any locations within a C file. This will NOT preserve locations from precompiled libraries or assembly source files. | -mpreserve-all |
| Preserve all locations within the project | --preserve-all | |
| Combine source files together | VSC: Prior to LTO, GCC based compilers have the ability
to 'combine' source files together, giving the compiler an opportunity to see
more of the source code. May lead to code and data size reductions. When this
feature is enabled, the build will be constrained in the following ways:
