What (who) is compile-time - definition

THE TIME DURING WHICH SOURCE CODE IS VALIDATED AND CONVERTED TO MACHINE CODE BY A COMPILER
Compiler-time; Compile-time; Compiler time; Compile-time error; Translate time

compile time         
<programming> The period of time during which a program's source code is being translated into executable code, as opposed to run time when the program is being executed. As well as the work done by the compiler, this may include macro preprocessing as done by cpp for example. The final stage of program construction, performed by the linker, would generally also be classed as compile time but might be distinguished as link time. For example, static data in a C program is allocated at compile time whereas non-static data is allocated at {run time}, probably on the stack. (2004-09-28)
Compile time         
In computer science, compile time (or compile-time) describes the time window during which a computer program is compiled.
Compile-time function execution

In computing, compile-time function execution (or compile time function evaluation, or general constant expressions) is the ability of a compiler, that would normally compile a function to machine code and execute it at run time, to execute the function at compile time. This is possible if the arguments to the function are known at compile time, and the function does not make any reference to or attempt to modify any global state (i.

Compile time

In computer science, compile time (or compile-time) describes the time window during which a language's statements are converted into 0s and 1s for the computer to understand. The term is used as an adjective to describe concepts related to the context of program compilation, as opposed to concepts related to the context of program execution (runtime). For example, compile-time requirements are programming language requirements that must be met by source code before compilation and compile-time properties are properties of the program that can be reasoned about during compilation. The actual length of time it takes to compile a program is usually referred to as compilation time.
