Sub: Re: Re: CPlus & IIgs
One gotcha is that CFront must make some assumptions about the size and
alignment of the buitlin types. For example int is 32 bits on MPW, but this
might not hold true on the IIGS. I've read on Usenet that there's an option to
CFront (-x?) that lets you specify the sizes and alignments of the basic
datatypes. I don't know all the details, however.
What Jack says about the resulting C code is true. For example, the mangled
names are very long, so you need a C compiler that can handle very long names.
