Description
Defines a macro name that can be associated with an optional value. This option is equivalent to a #define preprocessor directive.
If a value is not specified, name is defined as "1".
If you specify noD, all preprocessor definitions apply only to fpp and not to Intel® Fortran conditional compilation directives. To use this option, you must also specify option fpp.
Caution
On Linux and Mac OS X systems, if you are not specifying a value, do not use D for name, because it will conflict with the -DD option.
Alternate Options
None
