What is ccache FOR LINUX?

ccache

ccache is a super handy open-source tool that helps speed up your C and C++ compilation. It acts like a caching pre-processor, which means it keeps track of what you’ve already compiled. So, the next time you need to compile something similar, it can pull from the cache instead of starting from scratch!

How Does ccache Work?

This tool uses the -E compiler switch along with a hash to figure out if it can grab what you need directly from the cache. If your code hasn’t changed, why compile all over again? This makes your workflow much smoother.

Supported Languages

ccache works well with several programming languages! You can use it for C++, C, Objective-C++, and Objective-C. Whether you're building applications or just tinkering around with code, this software has got your back.

Why Use ccache?

If you find yourself compiling code often (and who doesn’t?), ccache will save you time and effort. It’s especially useful for larger projects where compilation times can really add up. Plus, since it's open-source, it's free to use and easy to get started with.
