Hi All,


This is regarding the assembly level optimization .Is it possible to
find out from the object code to what level it is optimized .i.e. for
e.g. in gcc compiler we have several level of optimizations so if once
the compiler performs the optimization both architecture specific and
non-architecture specific.


Now after the assembler converts it into objcode than can it be
determined at that time to which level that code is optimized


Though according to me it's not possible but I need your suggestions
on that.


Thanks and Best Regards,

hopeless waste of time. -John]
