Can I tell the QB64 compiler *not* to optimize my code?












3














I want to experiment with the efficiency of various algorithms and compiler optimization is an obstacle. Can I disable compiler optimizations in QB64?

    You'd need to have a look at the <qb64dir>/internal/c/makeline_<os>.txt file and remove the -O<n> switch, but there's currently no way to disable or otherwise alter the optimization level through the IDE or command-line options.

    @ChronoKitsune No that's perfect, thanks! That does exactly what I wanted, if you post it as an answer I will gladly accept.

  • The command line switch -s[:switch=true/false] might modify the compiler settings.
