[comp.lang.modula2] JPI, Stonebrook, and what happened to everyone?

Hello All..

What happened to everyone?  This echo just went dead.  Anyway, I had a
question about Stoneybrook Modula-2, is it compatible with Microsoft Linkers?
Can I use a standard linker to link the files.  I'm real interest in Modula-2
and I'm not sure if I'm interested in the direction JPI is headed.  Anyway
any response would be apprecaitted.

Hello Mark:

    You can use the Microsoft linker with Stony Brook Modula-2.  From my understanding, you can also use Microsoft CodeView to debug Stony Brook Modula-2 code.

	Yes you can use the Microsoft linker with Stony Brook Modula-2.  In
	fact for both Windows and OS/2 programming you have to use the
	Microsoft Linker.  When the environment is set up to generate Windows
	code it will automatically call the Windows linker.  

	Stony Brook also works great with CodeView and Symdeb.  At least with
	the Windows versions of CodeView and Symdeb. 

	Overall it is a real good compiler and generates pretty good code.
	Just wish it had some object oriented extension which are really
	nice when programming for Windows.  Inheritance makes the development
	of a reuseable library much easier.
