fpie

Tells the compiler to generate position-independent code. The generated code can only be linked into executables.

Syntax

Linux:

-fpie

Windows:

None

Arguments

None

Default

OFF

The compiler does not generate position-independent code for an executable-only object.

Description

This option tells the compiler to generate position-independent code. It is similar to -fpic, but code generated by -fpie can only be linked into an executable.

Because the object is linked into an executable, this option causes better optimization of some symbol references.

To ensure that runtime libraries are set up properly for the executable, you should also specify option -pie to the compiler driver on the link command line.

Option -fpie can also be specified as -fPIE.

IDE Equivalent

None

Alternate Options
