Compiler Option: -x

In tiko. tiko takes -x: the linked executable, DLL or library is written to the path as given, with no extension added; -x may stand anywhere on the line, the last one wins, and it wins over -o; with -c it is ignored and each object keeps its own name; a #cmdline "-x ..." in the source wins over the command line's; -x with no name is TKO0101. tiko's -o names the linked output too, when there is no -x. In a tiko.toml target's options, the path is relative to tiko.toml (tiko build).

Set executable/library path/name

Syntax

-x < name >

Parameters

name

Name of the executable or library file.

Description

The -x compiler option set the executable or library name, with extension. Defaults to the name of the first source file passed on the command line. When compiling libraries, be sure to add the "lib" prefix to the file name, otherwise the linker will not be able to find it. If compiling and linking separately, this option must be set only in the linker.
