3L Command

Diamond applications are built and executed using a variety of compilers, linkers, and other utilities, many of which may change from edition to edition. Combinations of different hardware targets and board manufacturers will give rise to numerous command variations.

In order to simplify the process and allow building projects for multiple targets, Diamond includes a utility, 3L.exe, that hides much of the complexity. You can also extend this utility to adapt it to your working environment.

The 3L commands may be issued manually from a command prompt, batch file, or MAKEFILE. They are also generated and executed automatically by the Diamond IDE.

You may safely ignore this section if you use the Diamond IDE.
