sensitive.
object-file
is the name of the object file to be created. The default is sourcefile.o.
directory
is the name of a directory for the compiler to search. If no directory is specified, the
compiler searches only in the current working directory. If any directories are
specified, the compiler searches them in the order in which they are listed, but
does not search the current directory unless it is explicitly named.
Note. Before you can use eptal, you must set the COMP_ROOT environment variable so
that it points to the root of the directory location of the cross compiler. For instructions, see
