Greetings
I am complete newbie to the world of programming.
Write my first console program which is around 11KB.
basically it takes a string as a first parameter and
does some stupid processing to it.
Works both in VC++ 6.0 in windows and gcc in RH Linux
7.2
The problem is when I comile with VC++ in Release mode
the output exe is 44KB.
when i comile the same program in linux using gcc -
gcc -O2 First.cpp
the resulting program is 126KB....why? am i missing
some option.
is there any option to tell gcc to compile it in
something like RELEASE MODE in VC++.
sorry for my ignorance and thanks in advance.
insane
