The compiler lets you compile, optimize, assemble, and optionally link in one step. The compiler performs the following steps on one or more source modules:
You can compile C, C++, and assembly files in a single command. The compiler uses the filename extensions to distinguish between different file types. See Section 2.3.9 for more information.
NOTE
Invoking the LinkerBy default, the compiler does not invoke the linker. You can invoke the linker by using the --run_linker (-z) compiler option. See Section 4.1.1 for details.
For a complete description of the assembler and the linker, see the MSP430 Assembly Language Tools User's Guide.
