Target and Compiler

Target processor type, compiler behavior

To match your run-time environment, specify the target and compiler options. The analysis uses these options to determine variable sizes, language extensions and compiler-specific behavior. If you still get compilation errors, you can work around specific errors with options from the Macros and Environment Settings category.

Analysis Options

C++ standard version (-cpp-version)Specify C++ language standard followed in source code

Required

Compiler (-compiler)Specify the compiler that you use to build your source code
Target processor type (-target)Specify size of data types and endianness by selecting a predefined target processor
Generic target optionsSpecify size of data types and endianness by creating your own target processor
