I mean the switch has been valid since at least gcc 2 if not gcc 1.35 and beyond. ------- Start of forwarded message ------- From: eldredge@ap.net (Nate Eldredge) Newsgroups: cygnus.bug-gcc Subject: `-Q' switch to GCC is not documented; fix included Date: 30 Nov 1997 10:58:57 -0800 Message-ID: <199711301858.KAA28290.cygnus.bug-gcc@adit.ap.net> To: bug-gcc@prep.ai.mit.edu The title pretty much says it. GCC's `-Q' option, which prints each function's name as it is compiled, and prints some time statistics at the end, isn't mentioned in the documentation, at least for GCC 2.7.2.1. Here is a patch which adds it. *** invoke.texi~ Tue Oct 3 15:40:43 1995 --- invoke.texi Sun Nov 30 09:02:56 1997 *************** *** 1582,1587 **** --- 1582,1591 ---- however, that the format of the data is not what @code{tcov} expects. Eventually GNU @code{gprof} should be extended to process this data. + @item -Q + Makes the compiler print out each function name as it is compiled, and + print some statistics about each pass when it finishes. + @item -d@var{letters} Says to make debugging dumps during compilation at times specified by @var{letters}. This is used for debugging the compiler.
