Subject to interest and time, I may eventually make this into a longer series about build systems and tooling. This will give us a better understanding of the compilation process and the ways in which it can be configured. With that in mind, this article will show how to use the command line to compile (very rudimentary) C++ code. The only way to avoid becoming slaves to our creations is to understand how they work in the first place. This is a major convenience when it works, but it becomes an obstacle when you need to change anything. When using Unreal Engine 4 or another high level framework, the compilation of your C++ code is largely hidden from view. To learn more, checkout my favorite TypeScript book.There may come a day where technology has advanced to the point that we never need to worry about which flags are set for compilation, or which files are being included. Note that only global scripts support concatenation, modules don't.įinally, you can specify a single output.js file in a output directory. If you want the single JavaScript file to be called output.js you would type: tsc -out output.js file1.ts file2.ts You can also concatinate all the specified files into a single JavaScript file.
To output all the new JavaScript files into a directory called 'output' type: tsc -outDir output *.ts You can also specify the output location or file for the new JavaScript files. You can also specify which files you want to compile: tsc file1.ts file2.ts This will output the JavaScript version of those files with a. ts files in the current directory, type: tsc *.ts TypeScript files normally have a '.ts' extension. You can then use the 'tsc' command to transcribe TypeScript into Javascript. To install TypeScript using the Node Package Manager (npm) type the command: npm install -g typescriptĪs long as you don't get any errors (warning are OK) you now have TypeScript installed onto your system. To compile TypeScript into JavaScript you need to have TypeScript installed. It is the preferred language of Angular2 and is maintained by Microsoft. It allows setting types and allows ES6 functionality. TypeScript is a programing language that is a superset of JavaScript. How To Compile TypeScript On The Command Line
