Usage

bx3-c-compiler (arguments and options)

Description:

The bx3-c-compiler was written as a wrapper to the regular C compiler command (whichever one boxenv is set up to use) that adds a few options that otherwise wouldn't be included. It was initially implemented in order to make it easier to embed PERL in C.

As the basic function of the C comiler program is probably known to the user, the rest of this document will focus on the added options that this wrapper script provides.

--perl-chant-on: This option automatically adds the extra incantations needed to embed PERL in C. The opposite of this option is --perl-chant-off.

--perl-chant-off: This option sets it so that the bx3-c-compiler will not add anything to enable embedding of PERL in C. This option is the default. The opposite of this option is --perl-chant-on.
