[comp.lang.eiffel] Moving C packages to DOS

sebby@teg.TEG.CDC.COM (Paul Sebby) (12/19/89)

In "Object-oriented Software Construction", Bertrand Meyer states that "An
option of the Eiffel compiler makes it possible to generate a self-contained
C package from an Eiffel system; this is important for cross-development."
[page 336].  I would like to know if anyone has had success with doing
Eiffel development on one of the supported platforms (such as Sun) and then
been able to generate a C package for the system, move the code to a DOS
machine, and compile it with Microsoft C and run it.

Also, is there any word from ISE about supporting Eiffel on DOS or Macintosh?

(Note: our system sometimes generates invalid "reply to" lines, so
please respond in comp.lang.eiffel or address mail specifically to me
at:  sebby@teg.cdc.com
Thanks.)
