).
You can use this option to specify an alternate name for

of input files. You can use the option to give the resulting file a name other

Example
In the following example, the command produces an
executable file named outfile.exe as a result of compiling and linking three
files: one object file and two C++ source files.
prompt> icx /Feoutfile.exe file1.obj file2.cpp file3.cpp ! specific to C++
prompt> dpcpp-cl /Feoutfile.exe file1.obj file2.cpp file3.cpp ! specific to DPC++
This command produces an executable file named
file1.exe when the
/Fe
option is not used.
