   +-/-+ |         +-"filename"--+|
         +-NO--OBJ----------------+

Parameters:

filename

A full file specification.

Properties:

Default:	OBJ"`source-name.`obj"
Phase:	Generate
$SET:	Any

Comments:

This directive creates a file in the format specified, with the name specified. For example, if you specify OBJ"myprog.obj", then a file myprog.obj is produced that contains object code.

With NOOBJ, no object code file is produced. If this directive is not specified, the name of the object code file is the basename of the source code file with an extension of .obj.
