4.8.1 -C: Compile to Object File
The -C option is used to halt compilation after executing the assembler, leaving a relo-
catable object file as the output. It is frequently used when compiling assembly source
files using a make utility. It cannot be used unless all C source files are present on the
command line. Use --PASS1 to generate intermediate files from C source, see
Section 4.8.45 “--PASS1: Compile to P-code”.
See Section 4.3.3 “Multi-Step Compilation” for more information on generating and
using intermediate files.
