<li>If compiler optimization is making the program source hard to step through in the debugger then adding this flag to <a class="el" href="docs_toolchain.html#lcc">lcc</a> can help. Note that using this flag will likely reduce code performance and increase code size while enabled, so it is best to only use it temporarily.<ul>

<li>directly with <a class="el" href="docs_toolchain.html#makebin">makebin</a> : <code>-yS</code> (with <code>-j</code> passed to the linker)</li>
