clang++: Choose a language standard to compile with.
$ clang++ ${path-to-source-cpp} -std=${c++20} -o ${path-to-output_executable}
try on your machine
This command is used to compile a C++ source code file using the Clang++ compiler and generate an executable file. Here's the breakdown of the command:
clang++
: This is the command to invoke the Clang++ compiler.${path-to-source-cpp}
: This should be replaced with the actual file path to the C++ source code file you want to compile. For example, if your source code file is namedmain.cpp
and located in the current directory, you can replace${path-to-source-cpp}
withmain.cpp
.-std=${c++20}
: This option is used to specify the C++ language standard to be used during compilation.${c++20}
needs to be replaced with the actual C++ standard version you want to use. For example, if you want to use C++20 standard, you can replace${c++20}
withc++20
.-o ${path-to-output_executable}
: This option is used to specify the file path for the generated executable file.${path-to-output_executable}
needs to be replaced with the desired file path and name of the executable you want to create. For example, if you want to create an executable namedmyprogram
, you can replace${path-to-output_executable}
withmyprogram
.
After replacing the placeholder variables with their respective values, the command should look like this:
clang++ /path/to/source.cpp -std=c++20 -o /path/to/output_executable
Make sure to provide the correct file paths and compile options according to your specific setup.
This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and
never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
