Determines whether the compiler generates position-independent code.
Windows: None
Linux: Code Generation > Generate Position Independent Code
Mac OS X: None
IA-32, Intel® 64, IA-64 architectures
Linux and Mac OS X: | -fpic -fno-pic |
Windows: | None |
None
-fno-pic or -fpic |
On systems using IA-32 or Intel® 64 architecture, the compiler does not generate position-independent code. On systems using IA-64 architecture, the compiler generates position-independent code. |
This option determines whether the compiler generates position-independent code.
Option -fpic specifies full symbol preemption. Global symbol definitions as well as global symbol references get default (that is, preemptable) visibility unless explicitly specified otherwise.
Option -fno-pic is only valid on systems using IA-32 or Intel® 64 architecture.
On systems using IA-32 or Intel® 64 architecture, -fpic must be used when building shared objects.
This option can also be specified as -fPIC.
None
