NAME
binfmtcxx-interpreter - binfmt_misc C++ handler

SYNOPSIS
binfmtcxx-interpreter C++-source-file-name [command-line options ...]

DESCRIPTION
binfmtcxx-interpreter compiles a C++ source file specified on the command-line using C++ compiler, and executes the resulting file.

It is designed to be used as a handler for binfmt_misc handler, which is a system used in Linux for handling arbitrary files as executables.

The command-line options are passed on to the compiled binary.

FILE MAGIC

There is a requirement for C++ source files to have the magic characters /*BINFMTCXX: at the beginning of the file.

That line also is used to specify the additional command-line options for C++ compiler.

ENVIRONMENT

GXX The compiler used. The default is to use g++

CXX The compiler used, if GXX variable is not set.

    Will fall back to using GCC and CC

BINFMTCTMPDIR

    Temporary directory used for binary and execution.

    Falls back to $TMPDIR $TEMPDIR or /tmp

BINFMTC_DEBUG
    enables debug output if set.

BINFMTCXX_GXX_OPTS
    Additional G++ options. Use BINFMTC_DEBUG to verify the options being passed on to g++.

    The default is -O0 -Wall -g
