Description
This option lets you specify the name of the GCC compiler that should be used to set up the link-time environment, including the location of standard libraries. If you do not specify a path, the compiler will search the PATH settings for the compiler name you provide.
This option is helpful when you are referencing a non-standard GCC installation, or you have multiple GCC installations on your system. The compiler will match GCC version values to the GCC compiler you specify.
The C++ equivalent to option -gcc-name is -gxx-name.
