I'm interested as to what command/s are exactly run behind the scenes when I run

arduino -verify /path/to/file.ino

I'm asking this because I'm working with an Arduino Due board and although I can make the command above work and successfully verify my code, it opens the Arduino GUI briefly, and this somewhat annoys my Continuos Integration system since the OS X machine running it is headless. It is a pain to workaround this problem from the CI system, so I'm just trying to figure out whatever command/s are being run behind the scenes. This way I can just verify my program using g++ or similar, no windows prompted.

So far, I've figured out the arduino verification command uses arm-none-eabi-g++, since that is the compiler for SAM boards like Arduino Due. I've also added all this bunch of arguments:

arm-none-eabi-g++ -c -g -Os -w -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -nostdlib --param max-inline-insns-single=500 -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -Dprintf=iprintf -mcpu=cortex-m3 -DF_CPU=84000000L -DARDUINO=151 -D__SAM3X8E__ -mthumb -DUSB_PID=0x003e -DUSB_VID=0x2341 -DUSBCON -I/some/includes mainProjectFile.cpp

that I found here.

But I get errors for some low level variables and functions I use, like:

error: 'digitalWriteDirect' was not declared in this scope
     digitalWriteDirect(indpins[iInd], 0);

So I guess there is still something left to include, I just have no idea what. What command or commands are being run behind the scenes when arduino verifies code?

I'd really appreciate your help.

Cheers, Raquel

If you go into File->Preferences in the Arduino IDE, you can turn on Verbose Output During Compilation.

This will show you exactly what is going on in the log window.
