/object:filename |
Arguments
filename |
Is the name for the object file. It can be a file name or a directory name. A directory name must be followed by a backslash (\). If a special character appears within the file name or directory name, the file name or directory name must appear within quotes. To be safe, you should consider any non-ASCII numeric character to be a special character. |
Default
OFF |
An object file has the same name as the name of the first source file and a file extension of .obj. |
Description
This option specifies the name for an object file.
If you specify this option and you omit /c or /compile-only, the /object option gives the object file its name.
On Linux and macOS systems, this option is equivalent to specifying option -ofilename-c.
IDE Equivalent
Visual Studio: Output Files > Object File Name
Alternate Options
Linux and macOS: None
Windows: /Fo
Example
The following command shows how to specify a directory:
ifort /object:directorya\ end.f
If you do not add the backslash following a directory name, an executable is created. For example, the following command causes the compiler to create directorya.exe:
ifort /object:directorya end.f
The following commands show how to specify a subdirectory that contains a special character:
ifort /object:"blank subdirectory"\ end.f
ifort /object:"c:\my_directory"\ end.f
