Hello , Thanks . I was referring the gcc 3.2.3 Manual . It does not elaborate on the flags as given in the 3.3 Manual does . Hope the information on flags given in gcc 3.3 manual holds good also for gcc 3.2.3 . Just curious to know if this information can be retrieved at runtime during compilation time .
