2.7 Preprocessing a Program Using kapc

Use the following command to execute KAP as a standalone preprocessor:

cc/preprocess myprog.c

kapc [kap_qualifier_string] myprog.i /cmp=myprog_cmp.c

After preprocessing your program, give myprog_cmp.c to the C compiler and to the linker, as follows:

cc/optimize=(tune=host,level=4)/ANSI_ALIAS myprog_cmp.c

link /threads_enable/EXECUTABLE=myprog.exe myprog_cmp.obj,SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB]kio/lib,
SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB]kmp/lib

Note

When you use kapc to process a file, you must set the C compiler and linker qualifiers appropriately. For this reason, Digital recommends that you use kcc whenever possible, as kcc automatically sets the compiler and linker qualifiers correctly.
