2.9 Using File Naming Conventions

Any input file name is valid. If the file name does not have an extension, the extension .c is assumed. As KAP processes a C file, it generates four output files - the optimized program file, the optional listing file, and the executable file.

The default output file names are as follows:


<file>_cmp.c - the optimized C program from the kcc driver
<file>_cmp - the optimized C program from kapc
<file>.out - the annotated KAP listing file
<file>.obj - the object file
<file>.exe - the executable file

Other output file names can be specified with the /cmp and /list qualifiers.

When KAP detects an error condition, KAP writes a message to standard error.
