- Preprocessed source files are output to the compiler.
Description
This option causes the preprocessor to send output to
stdout
. Compilation stops when
the files have been preprocessed.
When you specify this option, the compiler's preprocessor
expands your source module and writes the result to
stdout
. The preprocessed source
contains #line directives, which the compiler uses to determine the source file
and line number.
IDE Equivalent

Example
To preprocess two source files and write them to
stdout
, enter the following
command:
Linux
icpx -E prog1.cpp prog2.cpp
