@c Options affecting the preprocessor

@c ---------------------------------------------------------------------
9
 
10
@c If this file is included with the flag ``cppmanual'' set, it is
11
@c formatted for inclusion in the CPP manual; otherwise the main GCC manual.
12
 
13
@table @gcctabopt
14
@item -D @var{name}
15
@opindex D
16
Predefine @var{name} as a macro, with definition @code{1}.
17
 
18
@item -D @var{name}=@var{definition}
19
The contents of @var{definition} are tokenized and processed as if
20
they appeared during translation phase three in a @samp{#define}
21
directive.  In particular, the definition will be truncated by
22
embedded newline characters.
23
 
24
If you are invoking the preprocessor from a shell or shell-like
25
program you may need to use the shell's quoting syntax to protect
26
characters such as spaces that have a meaning in the shell syntax.
27
 
28
If you wish to define a function-like macro on the command line, write
29
its argument list with surrounding parentheses before the equals sign
30
(if any).  Parentheses are meaningful to most shells, so you will need
31
to quote the option.  With @command{sh} and @command{csh},
32
@option{-D'@var{name}(@var{args@dots{}})=@var{definition}'} works.
33
 
34
@option{-D} and @option{-U} options are processed in the order they
35
are given on the command line.  All @option{-imacros @var{file}} and
36
@option{-include @var{file}} options are processed after all
37
@option{-D} and @option{-U} options.
38
 
39
@item -U @var{name}
40
@opindex U
41
Cancel any previous definition of @var{name}, either built in or
42
provided with a @option{-D} option.
43
 
44
@item -undef
45
@opindex undef
46
Do not predefine any system-specific or GCC-specific macros.  The
47
standard predefined macros remain defined.
48
@ifset cppmanual
49
@xref{Standard Predefined Macros}.
50
@end ifset
51
 
52
@item -I @var{dir}
53
@opindex I
54
Add the directory @var{dir} to the list of directories to be searched
55
for header files.
56
@ifset cppmanual
57
@xref{Search Path}.
58
@end ifset
59
Directories named by @option{-I} are searched before the standard
60
system include directories.  If the directory @var{dir} is a standard
61
system include directory, the option is ignored to ensure that the
62
default search order for system directories and the special treatment
63
of system headers are not defeated
64
@ifset cppmanual
65
(@pxref{System Headers})
66
@end ifset
67
.
68
If @var{dir} begins with @code{=}, then the @code{=} will be replaced
69
by the sysroot prefix; see @option{--sysroot} and @option{-isysroot}.
70
 
71
@item -o @var{file}
72
@opindex o
73
Write output to @var{file}.  This is the same as specifying @var{file}
74
as the second non-option argument to @command{cpp}.  @command{gcc} has a
75
different interpretation of a second non-option argument, so you must
76
use @option{-o} to specify the output file.
77
 
78
@item -Wall
79
@opindex Wall
80
Turns on all optional warnings which are desirable for normal code.
81
At present this is @option{-Wcomment}, @option{-Wtrigraphs},
82
@option{-Wmultichar} and a warning about integer promotion causing a
83
change of sign in @code{#if} expressions.  Note that many of the
84
preprocessor's warnings are on by default and have no options to
85
control them.
86
 
87
@item -Wcomment
88
@itemx -Wcomments
89
@opindex Wcomment
90
@opindex Wcomments
91
Warn whenever a comment-start sequence @samp{/*} appears in a @samp{/*}
92
comment, or whenever a backslash-newline appears in a @samp{//} comment.
93
(Both forms have the same effect.)
94
 
95
@item -Wtrigraphs
96
@opindex Wtrigraphs
97
@anchor{Wtrigraphs}
98
Most trigraphs in comments cannot affect the meaning of the program.
99
However, a trigraph that would form an escaped newline (@samp{??/} at
100
the end of a line) can, by changing where the comment begins or ends.
101
Therefore, only trigraphs that would form escaped newlines produce
102
warnings inside a comment.
103
 
104
This option is implied by @option{-Wall}.  If @option{-Wall} is not
105
given, this option is still enabled unless trigraphs are enabled.  To
106
get trigraph conversion without warnings, but get the other
107
@option{-Wall} warnings, use @samp{-trigraphs -Wall -Wno-trigraphs}.
108
 
109
@item -Wtraditional
110
@opindex Wtraditional
111
Warn about certain constructs that behave differently in traditional and
112
ISO C@.  Also warn about ISO C constructs that have no traditional C
113
equivalent, and problematic constructs which should be avoided.
114
@ifset cppmanual
115
@xref{Traditional Mode}.
116
@end ifset
117
 
118
@item -Wundef
119
@opindex Wundef
120
Warn whenever an identifier which is not a macro is encountered in an
121
@samp{#if} directive, outside of @samp{defined}.  Such identifiers are
122
replaced with zero.
123
 
124
@item -Wunused-macros
125
@opindex Wunused-macros
126
Warn about macros defined in the main file that are unused.  A macro
127
is @dfn{used} if it is expanded or tested for existence at least once.
128
The preprocessor will also warn if the macro has not been used at the
129
time it is redefined or undefined.
130
 
131
Built-in macros, macros defined on the command line, and macros
132
defined in include files are not warned about.
133
 
134
@emph{Note:} If a macro is actually used, but only used in skipped
135
conditional blocks, then CPP will report it as unused.  To avoid the
136
warning in such a case, you might improve the scope of the macro's
137
definition by, for example, moving it into the first skipped block.
138
Alternatively, you could provide a dummy use with something like:
139
 
140
@smallexample
141
#if defined the_macro_causing_the_warning
142
#endif
143
@end smallexample
144
 
145
@item -Wendif-labels
146
@opindex Wendif-labels
147
Warn whenever an @samp{#else} or an @samp{#endif} are followed by text.
148
This usually happens in code of the form
149
 
150
@smallexample
151
#if FOO
152
@dots{}
153
#else FOO
154
@dots{}
155
#endif FOO
156
@end smallexample
157
 
158
@noindent
159
The second and third @code{FOO} should be in comments, but often are not
160
in older programs.  This warning is on by default.
161
 
162
@item -Werror
163
@opindex Werror
164
Make all warnings into hard errors.  Source code which triggers warnings
165
will be rejected.
166
 
167
@item -Wsystem-headers
168
@opindex Wsystem-headers
169
Issue warnings for code in system headers.  These are normally unhelpful
170
in finding bugs in your own code, therefore suppressed.  If you are
171
responsible for the system library, you may want to see them.
172
 
173
@item -w
174
@opindex w
175
Suppress all warnings, including those which GNU CPP issues by default.
176
 
177
@item -pedantic
178
@opindex pedantic
179
Issue all the mandatory diagnostics listed in the C standard.  Some of
180
them are left out by default, since they trigger frequently on harmless
181
code.
182
 
183
@item -pedantic-errors
184
@opindex pedantic-errors
185
Issue all the mandatory diagnostics, and make all mandatory diagnostics
186
into errors.  This includes mandatory diagnostics that GCC issues
187
without @samp{-pedantic} but treats as warnings.
188
 
189
@item -M
190
@opindex M
191
@cindex make
192
@cindex dependencies, make
193
Instead of outputting the result of preprocessing, output a rule
194
suitable for @command{make} describing the dependencies of the main
195
source file.  The preprocessor outputs one @command{make} rule containing
196
the object file name for that source file, a colon, and the names of all
197
the included files, including those coming from @option{-include} or
198
@option{-imacros} command line options.
199
 
200
Unless specified explicitly (with @option{-MT} or @option{-MQ}), the
201
object file name consists of the name of the source file with any
202
suffix replaced with object file suffix and with any leading directory
203
parts removed.  If there are many included files then the rule is
204
split into several lines using @samp{\}-newline.  The rule has no
205
commands.
206
 
207
This option does not suppress the preprocessor's debug output, such as
208
@option{-dM}.  To avoid mixing such debug output with the dependency
209
rules you should explicitly specify the dependency output file with
210
@option{-MF}, or use an environment variable like
211
@env{DEPENDENCIES_OUTPUT} (@pxref{Environment Variables}).  Debug output
212
will still be sent to the regular output stream as normal.
213
 
214
Passing @option{-M} to the driver implies @option{-E}, and suppresses
215
warnings with an implicit @option{-w}.
216
 
217
@item -MM
218
@opindex MM
219
Like @option{-M} but do not mention header files that are found in
220
system header directories, nor header files that are included,
221
directly or indirectly, from such a header.
222
 
223
This implies that the choice of angle brackets or double quotes in an
224
@samp{#include} directive does not in itself determine whether that
225
header will appear in @option{-MM} dependency output.  This is a
226
slight change in semantics from GCC versions 3.0 and earlier.
227
 
228
@anchor{dashMF}
229
@item -MF @var{file}
230
@opindex MF
231
When used with @option{-M} or @option{-MM}, specifies a
232
file to write the dependencies to.  If no @option{-MF} switch is given
233
the preprocessor sends the rules to the same place it would have sent
234
preprocessed output.
235
 
236
When used with the driver options @option{-MD} or @option{-MMD},
237
@option{-MF} overrides the default dependency output file.
238
 
239
@item -MG
240
@opindex MG
241
In conjunction with an option such as @option{-M} requesting
242
dependency generation, @option{-MG} assumes missing header files are
243
generated files and adds them to the dependency list without raising
244
an error.  The dependency filename is taken directly from the
245
@code{#include} directive without prepending any path.  @option{-MG}
246
also suppresses preprocessed output, as a missing header file renders
247
this useless.
248
 
249
This feature is used in automatic updating of makefiles.
250
 
251
@item -MP
252
@opindex MP
253
This option instructs CPP to add a phony target for each dependency
254
other than the main file, causing each to depend on nothing.  These
255
dummy rules work around errors @command{make} gives if you remove header
256
files without updating the @file{Makefile} to match.
257
 
258
This is typical output:
259
 
260
@smallexample
261
test.o: test.c test.h
262
 
263
test.h:
264
@end smallexample
265
 
266
@item -MT @var{target}
267
@opindex MT
268
 
269
Change the target of the rule emitted by dependency generation.  By
270
default CPP takes the name of the main input file, deletes any
271
directory components and any file suffix such as @samp{.c}, and
272
appends the platform's usual object suffix.  The result is the target.
273
 
274
An @option{-MT} option will set the target to be exactly the string you
275
specify.  If you want multiple targets, you can specify them as a single
276
argument to @option{-MT}, or use multiple @option{-MT} options.
277
 
278
For example, @option{@w{-MT '$(objpfx)foo.o'}} might give
279
 
280
@smallexample
281
$(objpfx)foo.o: foo.c
282
@end smallexample
283
 
284
@item -MQ @var{target}
285
@opindex MQ
286
 
287
Same as @option{-MT}, but it quotes any characters which are special to
288
Make.  @option{@w{-MQ '$(objpfx)foo.o'}} gives
289
 
290
@smallexample
291
$$(objpfx)foo.o: foo.c
292
@end smallexample
293
 
294
The default target is automatically quoted, as if it were given with
295
@option{-MQ}.
296
 
297
@item -MD
298
@opindex MD
299
@option{-MD} is equivalent to @option{-M -MF @var{file}}, except that
300
@option{-E} is not implied.  The driver determines @var{file} based on
301
whether an @option{-o} option is given.  If it is, the driver uses its
302
argument but with a suffix of @file{.d}, otherwise it takes the name
303
of the input file, removes any directory components and suffix, and
304
applies a @file{.d} suffix.
305
 
306
If @option{-MD} is used in conjunction with @option{-E}, any
307
@option{-o} switch is understood to specify the dependency output file
308
(@pxref{dashMF,,-MF}), but if used without @option{-E}, each @option{-o}
309
is understood to specify a target object file.
310
 
311
Since @option{-E} is not implied, @option{-MD} can be used to generate
312
a dependency output file as a side-effect of the compilation process.
313
 
314
@item -MMD
315
@opindex MMD
316
Like @option{-MD} except mention only user header files, not system
317
header files.
318
 
319
@ifclear cppmanual
320
@item -fpch-deps
321
@opindex fpch-deps
322
When using precompiled headers (@pxref{Precompiled Headers}), this flag
323
will cause the dependency-output flags to also list the files from the
324
precompiled header's dependencies.  If not specified only the
325
precompiled header would be listed and not the files that were used to
326
create it because those files are not consulted when a precompiled
327
header is used.
328
 
329
@item -fpch-preprocess
330
@opindex fpch-preprocess
331
This option allows use of a precompiled header (@pxref{Precompiled
332
Headers}) together with @option{-E}.  It inserts a special @code{#pragma},
333
@code{#pragma GCC pch_preprocess "<filename>"} in the output to mark
334
the place where the precompiled header was found, and its filename.  When
335
@option{-fpreprocessed} is in use, GCC recognizes this @code{#pragma} and
336
loads the PCH@.
337
 
338
This option is off by default, because the resulting preprocessed output
339
is only really suitable as input to GCC@.  It is switched on by
340
@option{-save-temps}.
341
 
342
You should not write this @code{#pragma} in your own code, but it is
343
safe to edit the filename if the PCH file is available in a different
344
location.  The filename may be absolute or it may be relative to GCC's
345
current directory.
346
 
347
@end ifclear
348
@item -x c
349
@itemx -x c++
350
@itemx -x objective-c
351
@itemx -x assembler-with-cpp
352
@opindex x
353
Specify the source language: C, C++, Objective-C, or assembly.  This has
354
nothing to do with standards conformance or extensions; it merely
355
selects which base syntax to expect.  If you give none of these options,
356
cpp will deduce the language from the extension of the source file:
357
@samp{.c}, @samp{.cc}, @samp{.m}, or @samp{.S}.  Some other common
358
extensions for C++ and assembly are also recognized.  If cpp does not
359
recognize the extension, it will treat the file as C; this is the most
360
generic mode.
361
 
362
@emph{Note:} Previous versions of cpp accepted a @option{-lang} option
363
which selected both the language and the standards conformance level.
364
This option has been removed, because it conflicts with the @option{-l}
365
option.
366
 
367
@item -std=@var{standard}
368
@itemx -ansi
369
@opindex ansi
370
@opindex std=
371
Specify the standard to which the code should conform.  Currently CPP
372
knows about C and C++ standards; others may be added in the future.
373
 
374
@var{standard}
375
may be one of:
376
@table @code
377
@item c90
378
@itemx c89
379
@itemx iso9899:1990
380
The ISO C standard from 1990.  @samp{c90} is the customary shorthand for
381
this version of the standard.
382
 
383
The @option{-ansi} option is equivalent to @option{-std=c90}.
384
 
385
@item iso9899:199409
386
The 1990 C standard, as amended in 1994.
387
 
388
@item iso9899:1999
389
@itemx c99
390
@itemx iso9899:199x
391
@itemx c9x
392
The revised ISO C standard, published in December 1999.  Before
393
publication, this was known as C9X@.
394
 
395
@item gnu90
396
@itemx gnu89
397
The 1990 C standard plus GNU extensions.  This is the default.
398
 
399
@item gnu99
400
@itemx gnu9x
401
The 1999 C standard plus GNU extensions.
402
 
403
@item c++98
404
The 1998 ISO C++ standard plus amendments.
405
 
406
@item gnu++98
407
The same as @option{-std=c++98} plus GNU extensions.  This is the
408
default for C++ code.
409
@end table
410
 
411
@item -I-
412
@opindex I-
413
Split the include path.  Any directories specified with @option{-I}
414
options before @option{-I-} are searched only for headers requested with
415
@code{@w{#include "@var{file}"}}; they are not searched for
416
@code{@w{#include <@var{file}>}}.  If additional directories are
417
specified with @option{-I} options after the @option{-I-}, those
418
directories are searched for all @samp{#include} directives.
419
 
420
In addition, @option{-I-} inhibits the use of the directory of the current
421
file directory as the first search directory for @code{@w{#include
422
"@var{file}"}}.
423
@ifset cppmanual
424

425
@end ifset
426
This option has been deprecated.
427
 
428
@item -nostdinc
429
@opindex nostdinc
430
Do not search the standard system directories for header files.
431
Only the directories you have specified with @option{-I} options
432
(and the directory of the current file, if appropriate) are searched.
433
 
434
@item -nostdinc++
435
@opindex nostdinc++
436
Do not search for header files in the C++-specific standard directories,
437
but do still search the other standard directories.  (This option is
438
used when building the C++ library.)
439
 
440
@item -include @var{file}
441
@opindex include
442
Process @var{file} as if @code{#include "file"} appeared as the first
443
line of the primary source file.  However, the first directory searched
444
for @var{file} is the preprocessor's working directory @emph{instead of}
445
the directory containing the main source file.  If not found there, it
446
is searched for in the remainder of the @code{#include "@dots{}"} search
447
chain as normal.
448
 
449
If multiple @option{-include} options are given, the files are included
450
in the order they appear on the command line.
451
 
452
@item -imacros @var{file}
453
@opindex imacros
454
Exactly like @option{-include}, except that any output produced by
455
scanning @var{file} is thrown away.  Macros it defines remain defined.
456
This allows you to acquire all the macros from a header without also
457
processing its declarations.
458
 
459
All files specified by @option{-imacros} are processed before all files
460
specified by @option{-include}.
461
 
462
@item -idirafter @var{dir}
463
@opindex idirafter
464
Search @var{dir} for header files, but do it @emph{after} all
465
directories specified with @option{-I} and the standard system directories
466
have been exhausted.  @var{dir} is treated as a system include directory.
467
If @var{dir} begins with @code{=}, then the @code{=} will be replaced
468
by the sysroot prefix; see @option{--sysroot} and @option{-isysroot}.
469
 
470
@item -iprefix @var{prefix}
471
@opindex iprefix
472
Specify @var{prefix} as the prefix for subsequent @option{-iwithprefix}
473
options.  If the prefix represents a directory, you should include the
474
final @samp{/}.
475
 
476

477
@itemx -iwithprefixbefore @var{dir}
478
@opindex iwithprefix
479
@opindex iwithprefixbefore
480
Append @var{dir} to the prefix specified previously with
481
@option{-iprefix}, and add the resulting directory to the include search
482
path.  @option{-iwithprefixbefore} puts it in the same place @option{-I}
483
would; @option{-iwithprefix} puts it where @option{-idirafter} would.
484
 
485
@item -isysroot @var{dir}
486
@opindex isysroot
487
This option is like the @option{--sysroot} option, but applies only to
488
header files.  See the @option{--sysroot} option for more information.
489
 
490
@item -imultilib @var{dir}
491
@opindex imultilib
492
Use @var{dir} as a subdirectory of the directory containing
493
target-specific C++ headers.
494
 
495
@item -isystem @var{dir}
496
@opindex isystem
497
Search @var{dir} for header files, after all directories specified by
498
@option{-I} but before the standard system directories.  Mark it
499
as a system directory, so that it gets the same special treatment as
500
is applied to the standard system directories.
501
@ifset cppmanual
502
@xref{System Headers}.
503
@end ifset
504
If @var{dir} begins with @code{=}, then the @code{=} will be replaced
505
by the sysroot prefix; see @option{--sysroot} and @option{-isysroot}.
506
 
507
@item -iquote @var{dir}
508
@opindex iquote
509
Search @var{dir} only for header files requested with
510
@code{@w{#include "@var{file}"}}; they are not searched for
511
@code{@w{#include <@var{file}>}}, before all directories specified by

518
 
519
@item -fdirectives-only
520
@opindex fdirectives-only
521
When preprocessing, handle directives, but do not expand macros.
522
 
523
The option's behavior depends on the @option{-E} and @option{-fpreprocessed}
524
options.
525
 
526
With @option{-E}, preprocessing is limited to the handling of directives
527
such as @code{#define}, @code{#ifdef}, and @code{#error}.  Other
528
preprocessor operations, such as macro expansion and trigraph
529
conversion are not performed.  In addition, the @option{-dD} option is
530
implicitly enabled.
531
 
532
With @option{-fpreprocessed}, predefinition of command line and most
533
builtin macros is disabled.  Macros such as @code{__LINE__}, which are
534
contextually dependent, are handled normally.  This enables compilation of
535
files previously preprocessed with @code{-E -fdirectives-only}.
536
 
537
With both @option{-E} and @option{-fpreprocessed}, the rules for
538
@option{-fpreprocessed} take precedence.  This enables full preprocessing of
539
files previously preprocessed with @code{-E -fdirectives-only}.
540
 
541
@item -fdollars-in-identifiers
542
@opindex fdollars-in-identifiers

547
@end ifset
548
 
549
@item -fextended-identifiers
550
@opindex fextended-identifiers
551
Accept universal character names in identifiers.  This option is
552
experimental; in a future version of GCC, it will be enabled by
553
default for C99 and C++.
554
 
555
@item -fpreprocessed
556
@opindex fpreprocessed
557
Indicate to the preprocessor that the input file has already been
558
preprocessed.  This suppresses things like macro expansion, trigraph
559
conversion, escaped newline splicing, and processing of most directives.
560
The preprocessor still recognizes and removes comments, so that you can
561
pass a file preprocessed with @option{-C} to the compiler without
562
problems.  In this mode the integrated preprocessor is little more than
563
a tokenizer for the front ends.
564
 
565
@option{-fpreprocessed} is implicit if the input file has one of the
566
extensions @samp{.i}, @samp{.ii} or @samp{.mi}.  These are the
567
extensions that GCC uses for preprocessed files created by
568
@option{-save-temps}.
569
 
570
@item -ftabstop=@var{width}
571
@opindex ftabstop
572
Set the distance between tab stops.  This helps the preprocessor report
573
correct column numbers in warnings or errors, even if tabs appear on the
574
line.  If the value is less than 1 or greater than 100, the option is
575
ignored.  The default is 8.
576
 
577
@item -fexec-charset=@var{charset}
578
@opindex fexec-charset
579
@cindex character set, execution
580
Set the execution character set, used for string and character
581
constants.  The default is UTF-8.  @var{charset} can be any encoding
582
supported by the system's @code{iconv} library routine.
583
 
584
@item -fwide-exec-charset=@var{charset}
585
@opindex fwide-exec-charset
586
@cindex character set, wide execution
587
Set the wide execution character set, used for wide string and
588
character constants.  The default is UTF-32 or UTF-16, whichever
589
corresponds to the width of @code{wchar_t}.  As with
590
@option{-fexec-charset}, @var{charset} can be any encoding supported
591
by the system's @code{iconv} library routine; however, you will have
592
problems with encodings that do not fit exactly in @code{wchar_t}.
593
 
594
@item -finput-charset=@var{charset}
595
@opindex finput-charset
596
@cindex character set, input
597
Set the input character set, used for translation from the character
598
set of the input file to the source character set used by GCC@.  If the
599
locale does not specify, or GCC cannot get this information from the
600
locale, the default is UTF-8.  This can be overridden by either the locale
601
or this command line option.  Currently the command line option takes
602
precedence if there's a conflict.  @var{charset} can be any encoding
603
supported by the system's @code{iconv} library routine.
604
 
605
@item -fworking-directory
606
@opindex fworking-directory
607
@opindex fno-working-directory
608
Enable generation of linemarkers in the preprocessor output that will
609
let the compiler know the current working directory at the time of
610
preprocessing.  When this option is enabled, the preprocessor will
611
emit, after the initial linemarker, a second linemarker with the
612
current working directory followed by two slashes.  GCC will use this
613
directory, when it's present in the preprocessed input, as the
614
directory emitted as the current working directory in some debugging
615
information formats.  This option is implicitly enabled if debugging
616
information is enabled, but this can be inhibited with the negated
617
form @option{-fno-working-directory}.  If the @option{-P} flag is
618
present in the command line, this option has no effect, since no
619
@code{#line} directives are emitted whatsoever.
620
 
621
@item -fno-show-column
622
@opindex fno-show-column
623
Do not print column numbers in diagnostics.  This may be necessary if
624
diagnostics are being scanned by a program that does not understand the
625
column numbers, such as @command{dejagnu}.
626
 
627
@item -A @var{predicate}=@var{answer}
628
@opindex A
629
Make an assertion with the predicate @var{predicate} and answer
630
@var{answer}.  This form is preferred to the older form @option{-A
631
@var{predicate}(@var{answer})}, which is still supported, because
632
it does not use shell special characters.
633
@ifset cppmanual
634
@xref{Obsolete Features}.
635
@end ifset
636
 
637
@item -A -@var{predicate}=@var{answer}
638
Cancel an assertion with the predicate @var{predicate} and answer
639
@var{answer}.
640
 
641
@item -dCHARS
642
@var{CHARS} is a sequence of one or more of the following characters,
643
and must not be preceded by a space.  Other characters are interpreted
644
by the compiler proper, or reserved for future versions of GCC, and so
645
are silently ignored.  If you specify characters whose behavior
646
conflicts, the result is undefined.
647
 
648
@table @samp
649
@item M
650
@opindex dM
651
Instead of the normal output, generate a list of @samp{#define}
652
directives for all the macros defined during the execution of the
653
preprocessor, including predefined macros.  This gives you a way of
654
finding out what is predefined in your version of the preprocessor.
655
Assuming you have no file @file{foo.h}, the command
656
 
657
@smallexample
658
touch foo.h; cpp -dM foo.h
659
@end smallexample
660
 
661
@noindent
662
will show all the predefined macros.
663
 
664
If you use @option{-dM} without the @option{-E} option, @option{-dM} is
665
interpreted as a synonym for @option{-fdump-rtl-mach}.
666
@xref{Debugging Options, , ,gcc}.
667
 
668
@item D
669
@opindex dD
670
Like @samp{M} except in two respects: it does @emph{not} include the
671
predefined macros, and it outputs @emph{both} the @samp{#define}
672
directives and the result of preprocessing.  Both kinds of output go to
673
the standard output file.
674
 
675
@item N
676
@opindex dN
677
Like @samp{D}, but emit only the macro names, not their expansions.
678
 
679
@item I
680
@opindex dI
681
Output @samp{#include} directives in addition to the result of
682
preprocessing.
683
 
684
@item U
685
@opindex dU
686
Like @samp{D} except that only macros that are expanded, or whose
687
definedness is tested in preprocessor directives, are output; the
688
output is delayed until the use or test of the macro; and
689
@samp{#undef} directives are also output for macros tested but
690
undefined at the time.
691
@end table

693
@item -P
694
@opindex P
695
Inhibit generation of linemarkers in the output from the preprocessor.
696
This might be useful when running the preprocessor on something that is
697
not C code, and will be sent to a program which might be confused by the
698
linemarkers.

@opindex C
705
Do not discard comments.  All comments are passed through to the output
706
file, except for comments in processed directives, which are deleted
707
along with the directive.
708
 
709
You should be prepared for side effects when using @option{-C}; it
710
causes the preprocessor to treat comments as tokens in their own right.
711
For example, comments appearing at the start of what would be a
712
directive line have the effect of turning that line into an ordinary
713
source line, since the first token on the line is no longer a @samp{#}.
714
 
715
@item -CC
716
Do not discard comments, including during macro expansion.  This is
717
like @option{-C}, except that comments contained within macros are
718
also passed through to the output file where the macro is expanded.
719
 
720
In addition to the side-effects of the @option{-C} option, the
721
@option{-CC} option causes all C++-style comments inside a macro
722
to be converted to C-style comments.  This is to prevent later use
723
of that macro from inadvertently commenting out the remainder of
724
the source line.
725
 
726
The @option{-CC} option is generally used to support lint comments.

These are three-character sequences, all starting with @samp{??}, that
744
are defined by ISO C to stand for single characters.  For example,
745
@samp{??/} stands for @samp{\}, so @samp{'??/n'} is a character
746
constant for a newline.  By default, GCC ignores trigraphs, but in
747
standard-conforming modes it converts them.  See the @option{-std} and
748
@option{-ansi} options.
