suffix ?
Because it uses the suffix to determine what to do with a file.
It only recognizes:
.c - standard C source
.cxx .cc .cpp .C - C++ source
.i - C preprocessor output
.ii - C++ preprocessor output
.h - C/C++ header file to pre-process
.s - unlinked assembler source
.asm - linked assembler source
.s .ism - unlinked library assembler source
.o - unlinked object code
.a - archive library (object code files)
.so - shared library description
vpcc is only a wrapper that helps to build executables by calling
vpcpp, vpcc1, vpas, vpld, and asm automatically depending on
what it determines it needs to do. Try inserting "-n -v" just after
"vpcc " to see what it's actually doing.
