Intek (Integration Technologies, Inc.) is now shipping Version 2.0b of our
C++ product. Derived from AT&T C++ version 2.0, Intek C++ is a translator
that generates C code as output, but is a "true compiler" in the sense
that it does a full parse and syntax check. The DOS version runs
in protected mode at compile time, allowing access to all memory in
the machine. Intek C++ can thus compile extremely large source modules.
Intek C++ is unique in its support for all memory models for DOS.
Important to Windows developers is its support for the small data
models ('small' and 'medium') as recommended by Microsoft. Intek
C++ 2.0b fully supports the extended keywords 'near', 'far',
'huge', 'cdecl', 'pascal', 'fortran', as well as the new Microsoft
6.0 keywords -- '_based', '_self', '_segment', '_segname', and
the based pointer operator ':>'. You can also use Intek C++ to
create protected-mode 386 DOS extender applications (via the MetaWare
and Watcom 386 C compilers).
Users are excited! Rick Lambright of Phycom Corporation says
that Intek C++ 2.0b is " ... a truly powerful, professional 2.0 Cfront
offering, with unmatched flexibility for DOS and Windows C++ program
development ... An excellent (heck, it may be the *only*) C++
2.0 alternative ... for those that prefer the time-tested stability
of using the Microsoft C compiler for Windows compilations."
Reviewers are impressed! "Of the Cfront compilers, I'd go with
Intek ... the fastest and most robust of the three [evaluated]" --
Dan Saks, Computer Language, October 1990.
Intek C++ supports the largest variety of C Compilers in the industry:
Microsoft C, versions 5.1, 6.0; Microsoft C with Windows, 5.1, 6.0;
Turbo C 2.0; Watcom C 8.0; Watcom C 386 8.0; Metaware High C 386. Intek
C++ can be made to work with other standard (at least K & R) and robust
C compilers that supports 31 character names. Some of our users cross-compile
from Intek C++ to C compilers for chips like the TI 34020.
Intek C++ sells for $495 US for single copies; site licenses are available.
It runs under MS-DOS on the 80386 with 2 MB of RAM, and also under
Unix System V/386. The Unix version can cross-compile to any DOS
C compiler.
We at Intek have been using C++ in our manufacturing and warehouse
automation projects since 1987. C++ is extremely useful in linking
islands of automation to our customers' business systems. We welcome
questions regarding the use of C++ for these applications.
