Sun Studio 12: C User's Guide

B.2.124.7 The Precompiled-Header File Cache

When the compiler creates a precompiled-header file automatically, the compiler writes it to the SunWS_cache directory. This directory always resides in the location where the object file is created. Updates to the file are preformed under a lock so that it works properly under dmake.

If you need to force the compiler to rebuild automatically-generated precompiled-header files, you can clear the precompiled-header file cache-directory with the CCadmin tool. See the CCadmin(1) man page for more information.
