Hi shart, > I want that the compiler show the entire duration (in second) of compilation > of any programm. If you are looking for the total time that compiler takes to compile a program, you can pass the command line option "-ftime-report" to compiler. It makes the compiler print some statistics about the time consumed by each pass when it finishes. e.g. when I passed this option while compiling my C program - "test.c" as following - gcc test.c -ftime-report I got the details about compilation time as - preprocessing : 0.01 (50%) usr 0.00 ( 0%) sys 0.00 ( 0%) wall 93 kB (12%) ggc lexical analysis: 0.00 ( 0%) usr 0.00 ( 0%) sys 0.02 (67%) wall 0 kB ( 0%) ggc TOTAL : 0.02 0.00 0.03 768 kB Regards Jayant
