NAME

       fsc - Fast offline compiler for the Scala 2 language

SYNOPSIS

       fsc  [ <options> ] <source files>

PARAMETERS

       <options>
              Command line options. See OPTIONS below.

       <source files>
              One or more source files to be compiled (such as MyClass.scala).

OPTIONS

       The offline compiler supports all options of scalac plus the following:

       -reset Reset compile server caches.

       -shutdown
              Shut  down  the  compilation  daemon.   The  daemon  attempts  to restart itself as
              necessary, but sometimes an explicit shutdown is required. A common example  is  if
              jars on the class path have changed.

       -server <hostname:portnumber>
              Specify  compile  server  host  at port number.  Usually this option is not needed.
              Note that the hostname must be for a host that shares the same filesystem.

       -J<flag>
              Pass <flag> directly to the Java VM for the compilation daemon.

DESCRIPTION

       The fsc tool submits Scala compilation jobs to a compilation daemon. The first time it  is
       executed,  the daemon is started automatically. On subsequent runs, the same daemon can be
       reused, thus resulting in a faster compilation. The  tool  is  especially  effective  when
       repeatedly compiling with the same class paths, because the compilation daemon can reuse a
       compiler instance.

       The compilation daemon is smart enough to flush its cached compiler when  the  class  path
       changes.   However, if the contents of the class path change, for example due to upgrading
       a library, then the daemon should be explicitly shut down with -shutdown.

       Note that the scala script runner will also use the offline compiler by default, with  the
       same advantages and caveats.

EXAMPLE

       The following session shows a typical speed up due to using the offline compiler.

       > fsc -verbose -d /tmp test.scala
       ...
       [Port number: 32834]
       [Starting new Scala compile server instance]
       [Classpath = ...]
       [loaded directory path ... in 692ms]
       ...
       [parsing test.scala]
       ...
       [total in 943ms]

       > fsc -verbose -d /tmp test.scala
       ...
       [Port number: 32834]
       [parsing test.scala]
       ...
       [total in 60ms]

       > fsc -verbose -d /tmp test.scala
       ...
       [Port number: 32834]
       [parsing test.scala]
       ...
       [total in 42ms]

       > fsc -verbose -shutdown
       [Scala compile server exited]

ENVIRONMENT

       JAVACMD
              Specify  the  java command to be used for running the Scala code.  Arguments may be
              specified as part of the environment variable; spaces, quotation marks, etc.,  will
              be passed directly to the shell for expansion.

       JAVA_HOME
              Specify  JDK/JRE  home directory. This directory is used to locate the java command
              unless JAVACMD variable set.

       JAVA_OPTS
              Specify the options to be passed to the java command defined by JAVACMD.

              With Java 1.5 (or newer) one may for example configure the memory usage of the  JVM
              as follows: JAVA_OPTS="-Xmx512M -Xms16M -Xss16M"

EXIT STATUS

       fsc  returns  a  zero exit status if it succeeds to compile the specified input files. Non
       zero is returned in case of failure.
