Windows:  |  
      /Qipo-c  |  
     
Arguments

OFF  |  
      The compiler does not generate a multifile object file.  |  
     
Description
This option tells the compiler to optimize across multiple files and generate a single object file (named ipo_out.o on Linux* systems; ipo_out.obj on Windows* systems).
It performs the same optimizations as the [Q]ipo option, but compilation stops before the final link stage, leaving an optimized object file that can be used in further link steps.
Files compiled with option -ipo-c or /Qipo-c should also be linked with the same option, or the link step may fail.
