[Gimple] look for gcc command to start compiling from GIMPLE

[charfi asma]

Thanks Diego,

but I think that my previous question was not very clear.
I asked for a gcc option to compile Gimple file directly (I have no file.c) I have file.gimple and I want to tell compiler: start your job from converting gimple to ssa and continue until reaching binary code.

thank you 

Asma

With gcc 4.5 you'll be able to do it using the LTO machinery with the
-flto switch:

$ gcc -flto -c file.c

generates file.o which contains a mix of gimple IL and final assembly.
The representation of gimple is not in text form, however.

Diego.
