Re: [Tinycc-devel] Question on creating a object file from a program in string format

[David Mertens]

I'm not entirely sure where the problem lies, but if you want to generate an output file, I think you need to call "tcc_output_file". Maybe. At any rate, I'd look through the source code for tcc.c to figure out how to create object files.

New to TCC but very interested in its small footprint and fast COMPILE speed.  Tried to create a  object file from a short program in string format,  the resulted "dummy.o"  doesn't have any symbols.  Any idea why?

Here is the modified example.   http://pastebin.com/raw/ntx28sgk

I experimented with removing or adding the call "tcc_relocate" but there is no difference.

C:\temp> gcc -I libtcc  -Llib -ltcc1 examples\libtcc_test.c -L. -llibtcc

it produced a program "a.exe".

C:\temp> a

C:\temp> nm dummy.o

nm: dummy.o: no symbols

Thanks!
