The ARM compiler, armcc, enables you to compile your C and C++ code.
The compiler:
Is an optimizing compiler. Command‑line options enable you to control the level of optimization.
Compiles:
ISO Standard C:1990 source
ISO Standard C:1999 source, except for complex numbers and wide I/O
ISO Standard C++:2003 source
into:
32‑bit ARM code
16/32‑bit Thumb‑2 code
16‑bit Thumb code.
Complies with the Base Standard Application Binary Interface for the ARM Architecture (BSABI). In particular, the compiler:
Generates output objects in an ARM proprietary format.
Generates DWARF Debugging Standard Version 3 (DWARF 3) debug information. RVCT also contains support for DWARF 2 debug tables.
See ABI for the ARM Architecture compliance in the Libraries Guide for more information.
Can generate an assembly language listing of the output code, and can interleave an assembly language listing with source code.
