Quick C

[KyoAD]

Hi,

Does anyone know when to get a version of QuickC compiler? Or can anyone suggest any good compilers to use?

Thanks!

Quick C? 16-bit, for DOS?!..
Age XXI...

 

[KyoAD]

Yeah..where can i get a copy? Or what can be a good replacement for it?

You could try say ebay for your specific requirements.

Or visit

http://www.compilers.net/Dir/Free/Compilers/CCpp.htm

and check out some free ones.
Turbo C 2.01, Digital Mars and Watcom all seem capable of generating 16 bit DOS programs.
Probably some of the other ones as well, I didn't read them all.

Borland has released their older DOS compilers for free use now. Visit their website for more information. I have always favored Borland compilers in the DOS environment over anyone else. Windows, err.., that is a different monster.

KyoAD, are u simply looking for a compiler under DOS?
or is that something else...

 

[KyoAD]

Yes. I am looking for a compiler under dos

 

[fl0ra]

If I were u, I would use cygwin. it comes with gcc. but it creates .exe file that can run under dos.
it is free.

Wouldn't advise anyone to use QuickC. It is very buggy, the code generation isn't very good and you have to code around some pretty standard stuff just to get it to run. I had to use it for a year and some stuff that will run on almost every compiler won't run on QuickC.

Why not try Digital Mars. It is free, supports both 16 and 32 bit and also C++ with STL.

Watcom comes with a DOS extender which is useful once you hit the 640K limit.
