[comp.lang.modula2] SCO Unix and Modula2 ?

nicolas@csi.forth.gr (Nicolas Chrissakis) (01/16/91)

Here is the summary for a modula2 compiler runing on a 386 Xenix, Unix
machines.

Here it goes:

-
Oregon Software, Inc. provides C++, Pascal-2, and Modula-2 compilers
for 680x0 machines which include Sun-3, Motorola, HP 9000/300, and 386
under SCO Xenix and Unix.

The company also writes compilers for DEC VAX supporting VMS and Ultrix, 
and the NCR Tower Series.

The compiler is a true compiler (it produces object code) with a source
level debugger.  

Pricing for VAX/VMS is based on CPU.  The price for a microVAX II is $3000.00.
Price for Modula-2 for SCO Unix/386 is $895.00

 Rowley Associates in England. They have a whole slew of cross and 
native M2 compilers, and quite good too. I think they have compilers for 
68K, 88K, Mips, Transputers and 80386, running on all kinds of platforms.

M2CC/C Modula-2 to C Translator

which is available for VMS, ULTRIX, UNIX, OS/2 and DOS. The license
prices are depending on the number of users, the base prices are as
follows:

-  DOS, single user                           SFr.  1,500.--
-  OS/2, single user                          SFr.  1,800.--
-  VMS or ULTRIX, two users                   SFr.  2,500.--
-  SCO XENIX or UNIX, two users               SFr.  2,500.--
-  Other UNIX systems                           upon request

The Modula-2 to C Translator uses C as an intermediate language whereby
Modula-2 becomes available on as many systems as C.

Main features of M2CC/C

-  Generates code for all common C compilers
-  Interface to C libraries and runtime systems
-  All Modula-2 language constructs are fully translated into C
   (no manual patching necessary)
-  Comprehensive Make utility

There was an old version of the well known Logitech Compiler ported to
Xenix in its Version 2.0 of 1987. Called  Modula-2/X 0.5 from 
Logitech in early 1988 but I do not think that any one will be interested 
because there is no support. 

-

compilers for different systems.  Their Modula-2 compiler is available
for (among others) these systems:
SCO Unix V
