Product Overview

The Norcroft C Compiler's architecture comprises three main components: the preprocessor, the compiler, and the linker. The preprocessor handles macro expansion and inclusion of header files. The compiler translates the preprocessed code into assembly code.

The linker combines object files and libraries to create the final executable. Communication between these components is managed internally. The compiler does not use external databases or specific storage mechanisms.

It operates through a command-line interface, with configuration primarily handled via command-line options and environment variables. User management is handled by the operating system. Monitoring and logging are available through compiler output and system tools.

Compared to GCC, Norcroft C Compiler may offer different optimization strategies and target-specific code generation. It provides a robust solution for C code compilation.
