Using Response Files

Sample Response Files

# response file: response1.txt

# compile with these options

-w0

# end of response1 file

# response file: response2.txt

# compile with these options

-O0

# end of response2 file

Use response files to decrease the time spent entering command-line options and to ensure consistency by automating command-line entries. Use individual response files to maintain options for specific projects.

Any number of options or file names can be placed on a line in a response file. Several response files can be referenced in the same command line.

The following example shows how to specify a response file on the command line:

icpc @response1.txt prog1.cpp @response2.txt prog2.cpp

Note

An "@" symbol must precede the name of the response file on the command line.
