Compile task

To compile a source code using the command specified in the config file, use the cppt compile command.

It will create an executable in the same directory as your source code.

Note: you don't need to use the compile command before the run command (the run command handles compilation by itself). The compile command is present to give you low-level control of the executable for things like generating output files for competitions like Meta HackerCup etc.

cppt compile --help

Options:
