SYNOPSIS

       c99 [-pedantic] [-pedantic-errors] [-D_ANSI_SOURCE] options ...

DESCRIPTION

       Calls  the  C  compiler  (cc) with the given options , using a C language environment compatible with the
       -ansiC specification.

       This includes proper handling of trigraphs, disabling non-ANSI compiler features (such as asm , typeof  ,
       and the $ character in identifiers), and definition of the preprocessor symbol __STRICT_ANSI__ .

       The status of C99 features implemented in GCC is described at http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-5/c99status.html

SEE ALSO

       cc(1) for a description of all options.

BUGS

       Since c99 is a shell wrapper script to cc , compile errors are prefixed by "cc:".
