What is CompileC?

I am surprised that a simple Google search did not answer this ... I know that this is something used by Xcode, but I can not start it or get the man page from the command line.

What is he doing and where can I find information?

CompileC is a registered representation of the internal function for xcodebuild. This is the source of basic compilation information in the build.log file. For a simple terminal with class main.m, the information after CompileC indicates:

  • object file (main.o temporarily stored in a hashed directory during the xcodebuild process)
  • method file (main.m)
  • compilation mode (normal - I do not know other options - who?) Architecture
  • (X86_64)
  • language (objective-c)
  • compiler (com.apple.compilers.llvm.clang.1_0.compiler)

You cannot access CompileC from the command line directly, but you can have a lot of control over the Xcode build process from the command line if you want:

man xcodebuild
