Concepts

Source code is passed through a compiler that turns it into executable binaries.

C++ doesn't have a strict package/file structure like Java, it's just a way to feed the compiler source code

.obj files compiled by the compiler contain binary code

Compiler:

  1. Reads Preprocess statements
  2. Tokenizing, parsing and translating cpp into a special abstract format
  3. Converting the code into constant data &| Instructions
  4. Generates machine code that the CPU executes

Linker:

  1. Find where each file and symbol is and link them together
