[comp.lang.c++] Delivering C++ programs on a PC

imf@aiva.ed.ac.uk (Ian Filby) (11/09/88)

I have an enquiry on behalf of someone who wishes to do development work
using C++ on a SUN, and deliver the system on a PC.

Can anyone recommend a C++ system which will run on both PCs and SUNs,
or alternatively, a C++ to C translator which runs on a SUN and produces
C code suitable for compiling on a PC (with for example MicroSoft C).

Thanks, Ian.

Oasys markets Glockenspiel (of Dublin's) Designer C++.  This runs on lots
of platforms, including Sun and PC.  I'm waiting for my copy of the PC version,
which works under DOS, MS-Windows, and OS/2, and comes with lots of stuff
besides cfront (they port, repackage, and add stuff to AT&T cfront).  DOS
cost $495 from Glockenspiel for the PC version, $2000 from Oasys for the
Sun version.
