- Generate an analyser from a flex file:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-01-01 10:52:18 +00:00
|
|
|
`flex {{analyser.l}}`
|
2017-12-30 16:16:30 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Specify the output file:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-01-01 10:52:18 +00:00
|
|
|
`flex {{analyser.l}} --outfile {{analyser.c}}`
|
2017-12-30 16:16:30 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Compile a C file generated by flex:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`cc {{path/to/lex.yy.c}} --output {{executable}}`
|
