- Generate an analyzer from a Lex file:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`lex {{analyzer.l}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Specify the output file:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`lex {{analyzer.l}} --outfile {{analyzer.c}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Compile a C file generated by Lex:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`cc {{path/to/lex.yy.c}} --output {{executable}}`
