We are looking for pointers to a C cross-compiler (and assembler/linker) to run on a Hewlett-Packard HP9000 series 500 that generates code for the Zilog Z8000 family of microprocessors. We are familiar with the HP product, but would also like to hear about any third-party software that is available. What we want most (outside of the standard wish for blindingly fast executable code and 100% compliance with K&R :-)) is that it look and feel like UN*X. The ability to pass command line defines and include file search paths is a must (the HP product *does not* do this, it looks and feels like the HP64000 and that is not appreciated around hear - a matter of taste and not a flame.) Also tools to turn the executables into a downloadable image (like Tekhex or Motorola S-records) so we can send it to our PROM programmer would be nice. We are not trying to scrounge or sponge, pointers to commercial ($$) products are welcome. Dollars are not the problem, it is finding a source for this software that is the problem. Any and all pointers would be greatly appreciated. Please reply by email. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Robbin W Johnson robbin@molihp.UUCP Moli Energy Ltd. ...!ubc-vision!molihp!robbin Burnaby, BC, CANADA ...!hpuvcca!molihp!robbin
