Hi Everyone:
GCC now has two styles for compilation, one for
'function-at-atime', and the other for 'unit-at-a-time'.
The term 'unit' in this word refers to a whole source file ? or
something else.
Could someone make an exact definition about it?
And How the compiler make the decision that if the functions are
in the same compilation unit.
Thanks a lot~
