2.7 The Microengine C Compiler
The Workbench contains a C Compiler to compile C source code into microcode for the
Microengines. The Microengine C Compiler is a general purpose Compiler but the C language
used for the Microengines is limited. Refer to the
Microengine C Compiler Language Support
Reference Manual for information on the functions and intrinsics designed for use with the
network processors.
The C Compiler can compile a source file (.c, .h) or an object file (.obj).
