[comp.sys.cbm] C Power

prindle@NADC.ARPA (Frank Prindle) (10/22/88)

I have C Power, not the Spinnaker version, so I can only speak for that one,
but it should be similar. There are 4 known flags:

	-n	Don't ask for disks to be swapped between each compiler pass
		even if the source is specified to be on the same drive as the
		system (i.e. compiler) disk.  Use this option if you are
		compiling a program with the compiler on the same disk.

	-p	Ask for disks to be swapped, even if the source is specified to
		be on a different drive from the compiler.  Not a real useful
		option.  In earlier versions of C Power, this used to be the
		same as -n.  Later, it's meaning was reversed.

	-a	Make the default storage class for declared variables "auto".
		When not specified, the default is "register", and such vari-
		ables may be stored on zero page.

	-s	Make the default storage class for declared variables "static".
		Not a real useful option either since it generates larger,
		slower, and non-reentrant code - best to be avoided.

These are the flags I am aware of; -n should be the only one generally required.
Sincerely,

What's the diference between C Power and Power C?
