Difference in Analysis & Synthesis results via execute_flow -compile and execute_flow --analysis_and_elaboration

Is there any difference between starting the compilation by execute_flow -compile and by running its individual parts e.g. --analysis_and_elaboration etc. Do they both do the same exact thing? What about PRE_FLOW_SCRIPT_FILE, and other such settings.

    The execute_flow command allows you to run some or all the executables in commonly-used combinations.

    execute_flow -compile --> Perform a full compilation of the design

    execute_flow --analysis_and_elaboration --> Only run analysis and elaboration of the design

    Regarding the PRE_FLOW_SCRIPT_FILE, you can refer to the document Automating Script Execution.

    Let me know if it helps.
