Input and Output Files for C and C++

By default, the input file can have the following extensions:

.sqc

For C files on all supported platforms

.sqC

For C++ files on UNIX platforms

.sqx

For C++ files on OS/2 and Windows 32-bit operating systems

By default, the corresponding precompiler output files have the following extensions:

.c

For C files on all supported platforms

.C

For C++ files on UNIX platforms

.cxx

For C++ files on OS/2 and Windows 32-bit operating systems

You can use the OUTPUT precompile option to override the name and path of the output modified source file. If you use the TARGET C or TARGET CPLUSPLUS precompile option, the input file does not need a particular extension.
