In Reply to this Note From: <Ian Service> > >Sorry if this is the wrong group for this posting. >Is it possible for gcc to be used on a DOS machine and has anyone done >the work of porting it? Yes and no. John Hassey of Data General (hassey@dg-rtp.dg.com) has done some work on an MsDos port. This compiler does not run on MsDos, but only runs on a Unix system and generates code for MASM. This compiler is not fully operational, and has serious problems when compiled for other target systems, such as Sun. The code it generates for MASM does not assemble cleanly. John has stopped working on this to give more attention to the demands of his employer. You can get the patches to gcc-1.37.1 at wuarchive:pub/gcc-i86ms.pat.Z -David- > >======================================================== >All opinions are my own and do not represent anyone else. >Ian Service iservice@gourock.sw.stratus.com >Stratus Computer Inc.
