qactypes, Qactypes
Tells the compiler to include the
Algorithmic C (AC) data type folder for header searches and link to the AC data
types libraries for Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and CPU compilations.
Syntax
Linux:
-qactypes
Windows:
/Qactypes
Arguments
None
Default
- OFF
- The compiler does not search the Algorithmic C (AC) data type folders for headers and doesn’t link to AC data type libraries for FPGA and CPU compilations. As a result, AC data types cannot be used in the source program.
Description
This option tells the compiler to include the Algorithmic C (AC) data type
folder when searching for headers, and to link to the AC data types libraries
for Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and CPU compilations.
AC data types provide support for arbitrary precision integers, fixed
precision integers and arbitrary precision floating-point data types. They are
built on top of the _ExtInt extended-integer type class.
When you specify option
[q or Q]actypes
, dynamic linking is the default. You cannot
link to the AC data type libraries statically.
Linux
The driver must add the library names explicitly to the
link command. You must use option
-qactypes
to perform the link to pull in the dependent
libraries.
Windows
This option adds directives to the compiled code, which
the linker then reads without further input from the driver. You do not need to
specify a separate link command.
This option only applies to host compilation. When
offloading is enabled, it does not impact device-specific compilation.
