Neomake: Neomake creating .gch files in my working directory

[RenatoUtsch]

Hi,

I am using neomake with neovim on a MacBook Pro with OS X El Capitain. However, sometimes when I open .hpp files neomake creates .gch files alongside them (for example, if I open a Kernel.hpp file, it sometimes creates a Kernel.hpp.gch file). This curiously doesn't happen every time.

How can I disable this? The only configurations I currently have related to neomake are:

let g:neomake_c_clang_maker = {
    \   'args': ['-std=c11', '-Wall', '-Wextra', '-Werror', '-Wno-unused-parameter'
    \   ] }

let g:neomake_cpp_clang_maker = {
    \   'args': ['-std=c++14', '-Wall', '-Wextra', '-Werror', '-Wno-unused-parameter'
    \   ] }

This has been bothering me for a while too. I looked into neomake to see if there was a difference between what me and it were setting for the clang arguments. The difference was '-fsyntax-only' in c.vim. I added that and it stopped making the gch files in my directories.

Nice. Will try it.

But this is more a hack than a fix. Neomake creates temporary files from other languages too. For example, it also creates .class files alongside my .java files. Maybe there is a way to change where these temp files are created?

@RenatoUtsch I will change the path of .class

-fsyntax-only is used by now.
Not sure about the Java maker(s), but there should be a separate issue for it then.
