| |
| <p><a name="index-i386-and-x86_002d64-Windows-Options-2073"></a> |
| These additional options are available for Windows targets: |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><code>-mconsole</code><dd><a name="index-mconsole-2074"></a>This option is available for Cygwin and MinGW targets. It |
| specifies that a console application is to be generated, by |
| instructing the linker to set the PE header subsystem type |
| required for console applications. |
| This is the default behavior for Cygwin and MinGW targets. |
| |
| <br><dt><code>-mcygwin</code><dd><a name="index-mcygwin-2075"></a>This option is available for Cygwin targets. It specifies that |
| the Cygwin internal interface is to be used for predefined |
| preprocessor macros, C runtime libraries and related linker |
| paths and options. For Cygwin targets this is the default behavior. |
| This option is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. |
| |
| <br><dt><code>-mno-cygwin</code><dd><a name="index-mno_002dcygwin-2076"></a>This option is available for Cygwin targets. It specifies that |
| the MinGW internal interface is to be used instead of Cygwin's, by |
| setting MinGW-related predefined macros and linker paths and default |
| library options. |
| This option is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. |
| |
| <br><dt><code>-mdll</code><dd><a name="index-mdll-2077"></a>This option is available for Cygwin and MinGW targets. It |
| specifies that a DLL - a dynamic link library - is to be |
| generated, enabling the selection of the required runtime |
| startup object and entry point. |
| |
| <br><dt><code>-mnop-fun-dllimport</code><dd><a name="index-mnop_002dfun_002ddllimport-2078"></a>This option is available for Cygwin and MinGW targets. It |
| specifies that the dllimport attribute should be ignored. |
| |
| <br><dt><code>-mthread</code><dd><a name="index-mthread-2079"></a>This option is available for MinGW targets. It specifies |
| that MinGW-specific thread support is to be used. |
| |
| <br><dt><code>-municode</code><dd><a name="index-municode-2080"></a>This option is available for mingw-w64 targets. It specifies |
| that the UNICODE macro is getting pre-defined and that the |
| unicode capable runtime startup code is chosen. |
| |
| <br><dt><code>-mwin32</code><dd><a name="index-mwin32-2081"></a>This option is available for Cygwin and MinGW targets. It |
| specifies that the typical Windows pre-defined macros are to |
| be set in the pre-processor, but does not influence the choice |
| of runtime library/startup code. |
| |
| <br><dt><code>-mwindows</code><dd><a name="index-mwindows-2082"></a>This option is available for Cygwin and MinGW targets. It |
| specifies that a GUI application is to be generated by |
| instructing the linker to set the PE header subsystem type |
| appropriately. |
| |
| <br><dt><code>-fno-set-stack-executable</code><dd><a name="index-fno_002dset_002dstack_002dexecutable-2083"></a>This option is available for MinGW targets. It specifies that |
| the executable flag for stack used by nested functions isn't |
| set. This is necessary for binaries running in kernel mode of |
| Windows, as there the user32 API, which is used to set executable |
| privileges, isn't available. |
| |
| <br><dt><code>-mpe-aligned-commons</code><dd><a name="index-mpe_002daligned_002dcommons-2084"></a>This option is available for Cygwin and MinGW targets. It |
| specifies that the GNU extension to the PE file format that |
| permits the correct alignment of COMMON variables should be |
| used when generating code. It will be enabled by default if |
| GCC detects that the target assembler found during configuration |
| supports the feature. |
