inline-calloc, Qinline-calloc

Tells the compiler to inline calls to calloc() as calls to malloc() and memset().

IDE Equivalent

None

Architectures

IA-32, Intel® 64 architectures

Syntax

Linux and Mac OS X:

-inline-calloc

-no-inline-calloc

Windows:

/Qinline-calloc

/Qinline-calloc-

Arguments

None

Default

-no-inline-calloc
or/Qinline-calloc-

The compiler inlines calls to calloc() as calls to calloc().

Description

This option tells the compiler to inline calls to calloc() as calls to malloc() and memset(). This enables additional memset() optimizations. For example, it can enable inlining as a sequence of store operations when the size is a compile time constant.

Note iconNote

Many routines in the supplied libraries are more highly optimized for Intel® microprocessors than for non-Intel microprocessors

Optimization Notice

Intel® Compiler includes compiler options that optimize for instruction sets that are available in both Intel® and non-Intel microprocessors (for example SIMD instruction sets), but do not optimize equally for non-Intel microprocessors. In addition, certain compiler options for Intel® Compiler are reserved for Intel microprocessors. For a detailed description of these compiler options, including the instruction sets they implicate, please refer to "Intel® Compiler User and Reference Guides > Compiler Options". Many library routines that are part of Intel® Compiler are more highly optimized for Intel microprocessors than for other microprocessors. While the compilers and libraries in Intel® Compiler offer optimizations for both Intel and Intel-compatible microprocessors, depending on the options you select, your code and other factors, you likely will get extra performance on Intel microprocessors.

While the paragraph above describes the basic optimization approach for Intel® Compiler, with respect to Intel's compilers and associated libraries as a whole, Intel® Compiler may or may not optimize to the same degree for non-Intel microprocessors for optimizations that are not unique to Intel microprocessors. These optimizations include Intel® Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (Intel® SSE2), Intel® Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (Intel® SSE3), and Supplemental Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (Intel® SSSE3) instruction sets and other optimizations. Intel does not guarantee the availability, functionality, or effectiveness of any optimization on microprocessors not manufactured by Intel. Microprocessor-dependent optimizations in this product are intended for use with Intel microprocessors.

Intel recommends that you evaluate other compilers to determine which best meet your requirements.
