How to read the output of gcc -v

If I run gcc -v or g ++ -v I get below results.

gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-16) (GCC)

How do I understand this?

What is (Red Hat 4.4.7-16) and what is (GCC)

Is this the OS this version of gcc is compiled on or is it Generating the OS this version of GCC is compatible with?

First, I'm not an expert.: /



But "Red Hat 4.4.7-16" refers to the GCC version (Gnu C compiler). There's a default c compiler for every major version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and IIRC, you're on RHEL 6.

So, I understand that the output

gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-16) (GCC)

First part

gcc version 4.4.7 20120313


is the default version. Using this version redhat created its own version

(Red Hat 4.4.7-16).

Please if anyone has a better idea please share it.
