DESCRIPTION

     StormC

     The versatile programming system for you and your Amiga! 
     ========================================================

     At the COMPUTER 95 we were introducing our brand-new C/C++ development
     system called StormC. It is a highly integrated software development
     system, containing an editor, compiler, linker, debugger and a
     RunShell with some very special features.

     The heart of StormC is its project management tool, which differs from
     the traditional MAKE because really every part of the project
     including source, includes and documentation can be managed by it and
     represented graphically.
     The very fast editor displays key-words colourfully. This option gives
     the programmer a good control while he is typing the source code,
     because it is a kind of syntax check and it improves the readability
     of the text.
     The StormC compiler handles ANSI C and C++ code and generates
     optimised code for the whole Motorola 68xxx family (including 68060
     and 68881/882).

     The RunShell is a run-time system that monitors the running
     application and prevents it from crashing the system. It also offers
     resource tracking, i.e. it controls the use of resources by the
     program and handles cases where it neglects to free them.
    
     Another feature of the RunShell is the option to start the debugger.
     This can be done during (!) the run-time of the program. So you don't
     have to decide for debugging before compiling. The debugger is
     integrated into the editor. This means that while you are debugging
     and setting breakpoints you are working in the editor. The structure
     and the colouring of the source code are still there. This is a very
     handy feature that makes debugging a fast and easy process.


     The Features of StormC
     ======================
     StormC contains all development tools imperative for efficient
     engineering:

     Flexible project management - StormShell

     - management of multiple projects
     - hierarchical projects with section folding
     - Drag&Drop
     - automatic file-type recognition (sources, libraries, object files,
       documentation...)
     - Toolbar with Tooltips (help function)
     - full configurable (>50 option requesters)

     Fast source editor - StormED

     - multiple-window editor
     - syntax colouring
     - user defined dictionary
     - perfect source structuring
     - unlimited Undo/Redo
     - fast search&replace
     - runs on graphics boards

     Very fast ANSI-C & C++ compiler - StormC

     - 2-in-1 compiler system: ANSI-C & C++ (AT&T standard 3.0)
     - exception handling & templates
     - high-speed compiler
     - very good turn-around
     - code generation for all Motorola 68xxx (incl. 68060, 68881/68882)
     - single-pass compiler
     - powerful inlining
     - highly compatible with SAS/C, DICE, Aztec C, MaxonC, GCC
     - precompiled headers or header caching
     - multiple-pass optimiser

     Optimising Linker - StormLINK

     - very fast linker
     - near-code optimiser
     - type-save linking
     - generates ROM code
     - easy generation of shared libraries
     - compatible to SAS/C- and MaxonC libraries

     Run-time system - RunShell

     - run-time system
     - resource tracking
     - controlled program interrupt
     - any time start of debugger

     Comfortable source level debugger - StormDEBUG

     - multiple windows
     - output into editor window
     - easy breakpoint settings
     - automatic value refresh
     - inspect windows for variables, structs, classes
     - editable typecasting
     - HEX editor

     Further features

     - fully localised (German, English, soon: French/Italian)
     - localised error reports
     - full multitasking
     - customised environment
     - extensive libraries for ANSI-C, C++, Amiga OS
     - OS 3.1 system include files

NEW FEATURES

     Many enhancements since the first Preview/Demo.

OTHER

     HAAGE & PARTNER COMPUTER announces a special PowerPC version of StormC
     for the 3rd quarter of 1996. This version will be developed in tight
     deliberation with Amiga Technologies and PHASE 5 digital products.
     Programs developed with StormC can be ported to PowerPC Amiga
     directly. Because of the native code the increase of speed should be
     enormous.
