NoteUse response files to specify options used during particular compilations. Response files are invoked as an option on the command line. Options in a response file are inserted in the command line at the point where the response file is invoked.
# response file: response1.txt
# compile with these options
-w0
# end of response1 file
# response file: response2.txt
# compile with these options
-O0
# end of response2 file
Use response files to decrease the time spent entering command-line options and to ensure consistency by automating command-line entries. Use individual response files to maintain options for specific projects.
Any number of options or file names can be placed on a line in a response file. Several response files can be referenced in the same command line.
The following example shows how to specify a response file on the command line:
icpc @response1.txt prog1.cpp @response2.txt prog2.cpp
Note
An "@" symbol must precede the name of the response file on the command line.
