<h3 class="section">3.15 Options for Directory Search</h3>
<a name="index-directory-options"></a>
<a name="index-options_002c-directory-search"></a>
<a name="index-search-path"></a>
<p>These options specify directories to search for header files, for
libraries and for parts of the compiler:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>-I <var>dir</var></code></dt>
<dt><code>-iquote <var>dir</var></code></dt>
<dt><code>-isystem <var>dir</var></code></dt>
<dt><code>-idirafter <var>dir</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-I"></a>
<a name="index-iquote"></a>
<a name="index-isystem"></a>
<a name="index-idirafter"></a>
<p>Add the directory <var>dir</var> to the list of directories to be searched
for header files during preprocessing.
If <var>dir</var> begins with &lsquo;<samp>=</samp>&rsquo; or <code>$SYSROOT</code>, then the &lsquo;<samp>=</samp>&rsquo;
or <code>$SYSROOT</code> is replaced by the sysroot prefix; see
<samp>--sysroot</samp> and <samp>-isysroot</samp>.
</p>
<p>Directories specified with <samp>-iquote</samp> apply only to the quote
form of the directive, <code>#include&nbsp;&quot;<var>file</var>&quot;<!-- /@w --></code>.
Directories specified with <samp>-I</samp>, <samp>-isystem</samp>,
or <samp>-idirafter</samp> apply to lookup for both the
<code>#include&nbsp;&quot;<var>file</var>&quot;<!-- /@w --></code> and
<code>#include&nbsp;&lt;<var>file</var>&gt;<!-- /@w --></code> directives.
</p>
<p>You can specify any number or combination of these options on the
command line to search for header files in several directories.
The lookup order is as follows:
</p>
<ol>
<li> For the quote form of the include directive, the directory of the current
file is searched first.
</li><li> For the quote form of the include directive, the directories specified
by <samp>-iquote</samp> options are searched in left-to-right order,
as they appear on the command line.
</li><li> Directories specified with <samp>-I</samp> options are scanned in
left-to-right order.
</li><li> Directories specified with <samp>-isystem</samp> options are scanned in
left-to-right order.
</li><li> Standard system directories are scanned.
</li><li> Directories specified with <samp>-idirafter</samp> options are scanned in
left-to-right order.
</li></ol>
<p>You can use <samp>-I</samp> to override a system header
file, substituting your own version, since these directories are
searched before the standard system header file directories.
However, you should
not use this option to add directories that contain vendor-supplied
system header files; use <samp>-isystem</samp> for that.
</p>
<p>The <samp>-isystem</samp> and <samp>-idirafter</samp> options also mark the directory
as a system directory, so that it gets the same special treatment that
is applied to the standard system directories.
</p>
<p>If a standard system include directory, or a directory specified with
<samp>-isystem</samp>, is also specified with <samp>-I</samp>, the <samp>-I</samp>
option is ignored. The directory is still searched but as a
system directory at its normal position in the system include chain.
This is to ensure that GCC&rsquo;s procedure to fix buggy system headers and
the ordering for the <code>#include_next</code> directive are not inadvertently
changed.
If you really need to change the search order for system directories,
use the <samp>-nostdinc</samp> and/or <samp>-isystem</samp> options.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-I-</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-I_002d"></a>
<p>Split the include path.
This option has been deprecated. Please use <samp>-iquote</samp> instead for
<samp>-I</samp> directories before the <samp>-I-</samp> and remove the <samp>-I-</samp>
option.
</p>
<p>Any directories specified with <samp>-I</samp>
options before <samp>-I-</samp> are searched only for headers requested with
<code>#include&nbsp;&quot;<var>file</var>&quot;<!-- /@w --></code>; they are not searched for
<code>#include&nbsp;&lt;<var>file</var>&gt;<!-- /@w --></code>. If additional directories are
specified with <samp>-I</samp> options after the <samp>-I-</samp>, those
directories are searched for all &lsquo;<samp>#include</samp>&rsquo; directives.
</p>
<p>In addition, <samp>-I-</samp> inhibits the use of the directory of the current
file directory as the first search directory for <code>#include&nbsp;&quot;<var>file</var>&quot;<!-- /@w --></code>. There is no way to override this effect of <samp>-I-</samp>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-iprefix <var>prefix</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-iprefix"></a>
<p>Specify <var>prefix</var> as the prefix for subsequent <samp>-iwithprefix</samp>
options. If the prefix represents a directory, you should include the
final &lsquo;<samp>/</samp>&rsquo;.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-iwithprefix <var>dir</var></code></dt>
<dt><code>-iwithprefixbefore <var>dir</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-iwithprefix"></a>
<a name="index-iwithprefixbefore"></a>
<p>Append <var>dir</var> to the prefix specified previously with
<samp>-iprefix</samp>, and add the resulting directory to the include search
path. <samp>-iwithprefixbefore</samp> puts it in the same place <samp>-I</samp>
would; <samp>-iwithprefix</samp> puts it where <samp>-idirafter</samp> would.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-isysroot <var>dir</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-isysroot"></a>
<p>This option is like the <samp>--sysroot</samp> option, but applies only to
header files (except for Darwin targets, where it applies to both header
files and libraries). See the <samp>--sysroot</samp> option for more
information.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-imultilib <var>dir</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-imultilib"></a>
<p>Use <var>dir</var> as a subdirectory of the directory containing
target-specific C++ headers.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-nostdinc</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-nostdinc"></a>
<p>Do not search the standard system directories for header files.
Only the directories explicitly specified with <samp>-I</samp>,
<samp>-iquote</samp>, <samp>-isystem</samp>, and/or <samp>-idirafter</samp>
options (and the directory of the current file, if appropriate)
are searched.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-nostdinc++</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-nostdinc_002b_002b-1"></a>
<p>Do not search for header files in the C++-specific standard directories,
but do still search the other standard directories. (This option is
used when building the C++ library.)
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-iplugindir=<var>dir</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-iplugindir_003d"></a>
<p>Set the directory to search for plugins that are passed
by <samp>-fplugin=<var>name</var></samp> instead of
<samp>-fplugin=<var>path</var>/<var>name</var>.so</samp>. This option is not meant
to be used by the user, but only passed by the driver.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-L<var>dir</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-L"></a>
<p>Add directory <var>dir</var> to the list of directories to be searched
for <samp>-l</samp>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-B<var>prefix</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-B"></a>
<p>This option specifies where to find the executables, libraries,
include files, and data files of the compiler itself.
</p>
<p>The compiler driver program runs one or more of the subprograms
<code>cpp</code>, <code>cc1</code>, <code>as</code> and <code>ld</code>. It tries
<var>prefix</var> as a prefix for each program it tries to run, both with and
without &lsquo;<samp><var>machine</var>/<var>version</var>/</samp>&rsquo; for the corresponding target
machine and compiler version.
</p>
<p>For each subprogram to be run, the compiler driver first tries the
<samp>-B</samp> prefix, if any. If that name is not found, or if <samp>-B</samp>
is not specified, the driver tries two standard prefixes,
<samp>/usr/lib/gcc/</samp> and <samp>/usr/local/lib/gcc/</samp>. If neither of
those results in a file name that is found, the unmodified program
name is searched for using the directories specified in your
<code>PATH</code> environment variable.
</p>
<p>The compiler checks to see if the path provided by <samp>-B</samp>
refers to a directory, and if necessary it adds a directory
separator character at the end of the path.
</p>
<p><samp>-B</samp> prefixes that effectively specify directory names also apply
to libraries in the linker, because the compiler translates these
options into <samp>-L</samp> options for the linker. They also apply to
include files in the preprocessor, because the compiler translates these
options into <samp>-isystem</samp> options for the preprocessor. In this case,
the compiler appends &lsquo;<samp>include</samp>&rsquo; to the prefix.
</p>
<p>The runtime support file <samp>libgcc.a</samp> can also be searched for using
the <samp>-B</samp> prefix, if needed. If it is not found there, the two
standard prefixes above are tried, and that is all. The file is left
out of the link if it is not found by those means.
</p>
<p>Another way to specify a prefix much like the <samp>-B</samp> prefix is to use
the environment variable <code>GCC_EXEC_PREFIX</code>. See <a href="Environment-Variables.html#Environment-Variables">Environment Variables</a>.
</p>
<p>As a special kludge, if the path provided by <samp>-B</samp> is
<samp>[dir/]stage<var>N</var>/</samp>, where <var>N</var> is a number in the range 0 to
9, then it is replaced by <samp>[dir/]include</samp>. This is to help
with boot-strapping the compiler.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-no-canonical-prefixes</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-no_002dcanonical_002dprefixes"></a>
<p>Do not expand any symbolic links, resolve references to &lsquo;<samp>/../</samp>&rsquo;
or &lsquo;<samp>/./</samp>&rsquo;, or make the path absolute when generating a relative
prefix.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>--sysroot=<var>dir</var></code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-sysroot"></a>
<p>Use <var>dir</var> as the logical root directory for headers and libraries.
For example, if the compiler normally searches for headers in
<samp>/usr/include</samp> and libraries in <samp>/usr/lib</samp>, it instead
searches <samp><var>dir</var>/usr/include</samp> and <samp><var>dir</var>/usr/lib</samp>.
</p>
<p>If you use both this option and the <samp>-isysroot</samp> option, then
the <samp>--sysroot</samp> option applies to libraries, but the
<samp>-isysroot</samp> option applies to header files.
</p>
<p>The GNU linker (beginning with version 2.16) has the necessary support
for this option. If your linker does not support this option, the
header file aspect of <samp>--sysroot</samp> still works, but the
library aspect does not.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>--no-sysroot-suffix</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-no_002dsysroot_002dsuffix"></a>
<p>For some targets, a suffix is added to the root directory specified
with <samp>--sysroot</samp>, depending on the other options used, so that
headers may for example be found in
<samp><var>dir</var>/<var>suffix</var>/usr/include</samp> instead of
<samp><var>dir</var>/usr/include</samp>. This option disables the addition of
such a suffix.
