Prior to this commit TinyCC was exporting symbols defined in programs
only when they resolve an undefined symbol of a library. However, the
expected behavior (see --export-dynamic in GNU ld manpage) is that all
symbols used by libraries and defined by a program should be exported in
dynsym section. This is because symbol resolution search first in
program and then in libraries, thus allowing program symbol to interpose
symbol defined in a library.
Usage example: tcc -xc ex5.cgi
From a gcc docs:
You can specify the input language explicitly with the -x option:
-x language
Specify explicitly the language for the following input files
(rather than letting the compiler choose a default based on the file
name suffix). This option applies to all following input files until
the next -x option. Possible values for language are:
c c-header c-cpp-output
c++ c++-header c++-cpp-output
objective-c objective-c-header objective-c-cpp-output
objective-c++ objective-c++-header objective-c++-cpp-output
assembler assembler-with-cpp
ada
f77 f77-cpp-input f95 f95-cpp-input
java
-x none
Turn off any specification of a language, so that subsequent files
are handled according to their file name suffixes (as they are if -x
has not been used at all)
library Cello: http://libcello.org/ which uses `$` and several
variations of as macros.
There is also RayLanguage which also uses it as a macro for a kind of
ObjC style message passing: https://github.com/kojiba/RayLanguage
This is a patch from Daniel Holden.
* define __bound_init as external_global_sym insteed of the compiling
a tiny program
* remove warning about buf[] when CONFIG_TCC_BCHECK is not defined
This is for a case when no '{' is used in the initialization code.
An option name is -fold-struct-init-code. A linux 2.4.26 can't
find initrd when compiled with a new algorithm.
Lets assume that in *.S files a preprocessor directive
follow '#' char w/o spaces between. Otherwise there is
too many problems with the content of the comments.
* tell a right line number in error message
if a #line directive is wrong
* don't print an error message if we preprocess a .S file
and #line directive is wrong. This is the case of
the
# 4026 bytes
comment in *.S file.
* preprocess_skip: skip a line with
if (parse_flags & PARSE_FLAG_ASM_COMMENTS)
p = parse_line_comment(p);
if line starts with # and a preprocessor command not found.
A test program:
#if defined(CONFIG_EDD) || defined(CONFIG_EDD_MODULE)
# This repeats until either a device doesn't exist, or until
#endif
* remove a second definition of the TOK_FLAG_* and PARSE_FLAG_*
from the tccpp.c
* define targetos=Windows when --enable-tcc32-mingw, --enable-cygwin, ...
* use TARGETOS insteed HOST_OS when selecting PROGS
* use "$(tccdir)" insteed $(tccdir) on install (spaces in path)
* install tcc.exe too
* produce bcheck.o when cross-compiling too (lib/Makefile)
* force bcheck.o linking by compiling inside tcc_set_output_type()
a dummy program with local array. Otherwise bcheck.o may be not linked.
* replace %xz format specifier with %p in bcheck (don't supported on
Windows)
* call a __bound_init when __bound_ptr_add, __bound_ptr_indir,
__bound_new_region, __bound_delete_region called.
This is because a __bound_init inside ".init" section is not called
on Windows for unknown reason.
* print on stderr a message when an illegal pointer is returned:
there is no segmentation violation on Windows for a program
compiled with "tcc -b"
* remove "C:" subdir on clean if $HOST_OS = "Linux"
* default CFLAGS="-Wall -g -O0" insteed CFLAGS="-Wall -g -O2"
to speed up compilation and more precise debugging.
tcc w/o -g option generate an executable file which format
is not recognized by binutils. It is like stripped one but
binutils don't think so. Solution: generate not stripped
file which can be correctly stripped by external utils.
may be there is a need to handle a -s option and call
a sstrip/strip program to do a job.

The following check in tccgen.c is removed
if (nocode_wanted)
tcc_error("statement expression in global scope");
This check is introduced in commit 5bcc3eed7b and breaks compilation
of the linux 2.4.26 kernel.
