Thanks for the help.

Just to let you know that the suggestion of -cpp-command "gcc-4 ..." 
worked.

I tried the other suggestion of checking (and then changing if needed) the 
permission to Temp, which did not work.


Thanks and Regards,
Vijay

Trying to use gcc yourself to pre-process the file.  The command would
be "gcc -C -E -I. -o first.i first.c".

If it works, you can now use first.i as an argument to frama-c instead
of first.c. That will let you circumvent the problem.

If it doesn't work, you are left with the problem of pre-processing
the file one way or the other, ideally with the same pre-processor
that will be used in the actual compilation. Frama-C has nothing to do
with the problem (yet).

The -cpp-command expects a string. Note that there is a known bug in
the -cpp-command option in Boron.
To quote from a previous message in the mailing list:
________________

You may find that the option -cpp-command does not
handle the tokens %1 and %2 as documented.
That's an unfortunate bug. But since you are already setting
yourself up for compiling Frama-C from sources with
your exotic target architecture, it won't be too much additional
trouble to apply the following patch :

If you do not wish to recompile Frama-C, use the workaround of
pre-processing each file yourself using the .i extension for the
result. In the case of the mini-tutorial first.c, no pre-processing is
needing so you can simply rename it first.i.

You can also read the threads initiated by Patrick Nylund in the May
archives of this mailing list for more information:
