Hi there, I am looking for a C Cross Compiler for Intel 8051. Please specify the address, phone number, and fax number (if any) of the software developer(s), and reply to me directly at wcheung@ee.ubc.ca. Thanks in advance.

They reviewed a number of products but considered only 2 that cost less than $1000. One was $495 and the other was $40.00. It turns out that the $40 product beat the $495 product in every benchmark and had a better implementation of C as well. The author of the $40.00 product is Dave Dunfield (613) 825-0257 (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada). The product is called Micro C (and it is not a full ANSI compliant compiler by any means, but then again, you can always by the >$1000 compilers for that). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary Mussar |Internet: mussar@bnr.ca | Phone: (613) 763-4937 BNR Ltd. | | FAX: (613) 763-2626

Attached is an extract from the "catalog" which comes with MICRO-C. Don't write to me about this, I am just a very satisfied user of the product. The catalog is out of date (maybe that's why it says the price is $35) and doesn't mention that Micro-C supports the 8051, but I understand from Dave that the 8051 code generator is now included. --------------------------- cut here ------------------------------------ *** Catalog revised 11-Dec-90 *** Here is a list of software/firmware products which I currently have available: Anyone placing any order or registration will receive a current edition of this catalog. You may also obtain a new catalog at any time by sending me a self addressed, stamped envelope. Due to confusion about the prices in previous catalogs, All prices now INCLUDE the cost of a "current" disk. If you wish to REGISTER a shareware product which you have acquired by other means WITHOUT receiving the current revision of that product on disk, deduct $5 from the prices quoted. You may order an update (on diskette) for any product which you have already purchased, at a nominal update fee. All software will normally be shipped on 5.25" MS-DOS compatable 360K diskettes. Other media/formats may be available by special request. All disks include complete documentation in the form of ASCII text files, however registered users may also order high quality laser printed copies of the documentation for a nominal fee. These may be ordered separately, or in addition to the initial order. Please send all correspondence to: Dave Dunfield 56 Burnetts Grove Circle, Nepean, Ont.
