I would be interested in knowing which compilers/development systems developers of PC software use. I am most interested in developers of relatively large/complex pieces of software, who have several people working on different aspects of the same product simultaneously. I would like to know whether utilities such as "make" are really useful, or do they tend to produce massive re-compiles whenever a simple constant.h file is altered. Do you cross-compile from a large mini/mainframe, or does each developer have his own machine? (with a central file server?) Your personal experiences are most welcome. Please state which compiler/package you use, or if it is a "homebrew" development/maintenance system. Thanks for all replies (Please mail, as I do not regularly read this newsgroup). If there are sufficient requests, I will post a summary. Jerry Zarycky Usenet: {cornell, uw-beaver, linus, ihnp4, allegra, decvax, floyd} !utcsri!drz CSNET: drz@Toronto ARPA: drz%Toronto@CSNet-Relay
