Step 3: Specify C/C++ Compiler Options

The C/C++ compiler options of the Software Build Settings Wizard allow you to specify the optimization level and goal, preprocessor definitions, include directories, and command-line options for a software toolset C/C++ compiler to use during a software build. The C/C++ compiler options also allow you to specify whether you want the C/C++ compiler to ignore standard include directories, generate debug information, or suppress warning during the software build.

To specify the options for the C/C++ compiler, follow these steps:

  1. In the Software Build Settings Wizard: C/C++ Compiler page 4a, specify the following responses to the wizard prompts:
