Specifying cool Options at Compilation

Most cool options have two forms:

A form that you use when you call cool directly
A form that you use when you specify cool options at compilation.

When you call cool directly, you specify one or more of the options listed in Option Summary . When you specify cool options at compilation, you specify the compiler driver form of the option. Option Summary lists each cool option and its corresponding compiler driver form. The compiler driver form begins with -A . The two forms are not interchangeable: You cannot use cool options with the sascc370 and sasCC370 compiler drivers, and you cannot use the compiler driver options with cool .

For example, the compiler driver form of the -p option is -Aprem . The rules for specifying this option are as follows:

When calling cool directly, you specify the following:
```
cool -p filename
```
When using the sascc370 (or sasCC370 ) compiler driver, you specify the following:
```
sascc370 -Aprem filename
```
You cannot specify the following:
```
cool -Aprem filename
```

Note: You can also specify cool options at compilation by prefixing the option with -W l ( -W followed by the letter l). For details on specifying the compilation phase, refer to Compiling C and C++ Programs . Also see Compatibility Notes . [cautend]
