Question sir
iam a computer science student.i got in my subject(principles of programing language)that compilation creates a machine understandable code.then thus the processor run the machine code generated after compiling the program?
i mean, if we feed the machine code(.exe code in windows)to the processor ,then can we run (as an instruction code to processor)it without the virtual computer of that particular compiler present on the os.
i like to ask this because ,unix is an os that is written in c.how is made machine understandable code?
Answer Venkatesh,
AFAIK this is done very much as in Windows. The C or C++ source code gets compiled into an object module, then goes through a linking loader or similar tool to create a load module - ie. an .exe file.
