Invoking the Compiler
2.1 Invoking the Compiler
This chapter looks at how to use PICC32 as well as the tasks that it and the internal applications
perform during compilation.
It is conventional to supply options(identified by a leading dash “-” or double dash “–”) before
the filenames, although this is not mandatory.
option follows.
files, such as relocatable object (.obj) files or p-code (.p1) files. The order of the files is not
important, except that it may affect the order in which code or data appears in memory, and may
affect the name of some of the output files.

extension. Recognized file types are listed in Table 2.1. This means, for example, that an assembler
file must always have a .as extension. Alphabetic case of the extension is not important from the
compiler’s point of view.

PICC32 has the following basic command format:

A module is the output of the preprocessor, for a given source file, after inclusion of
any header files (or other source files) which are specified by #include preprocessor
