How to redirect the output of gcc compiler to a file?

Question

Redirection operator does not work. So how should we do it? One more question, in makefile, how can we give arguments from command line, like

run: a.out
             


        

Answer 1

Try: $ make 2>&1 | tee your_build_log.txt this will redirect stdout, 2>&1 redirects stderr to the same place as stdout while allowing you to simultaneously see the output in your terminal.
