- I'm trying to iron out what versions of C++ compilers do what. Trying to
- look at the what i have and were i will probably go. I inherited code that
- is written in a mixed bag of Visual Basic 2.0, Borland C++ 3.1, and MS C++ 1.0.
- The long term plan is probably to get to NT or 95 but currently we only
- want win31 support. The other long term plan is to go all C++. It looks like
- the Turbo Debugger in BC++ 3.1 wont run under win95. The first big question
- is what version of BC++ works under NT or 95 and will make 32 bit apps? This
- question might not be that important because the plan is to go MS.
- Anyways the following is what i understand to be true. Please correct me.
-
- Version Run on Makes MFC Version
- MS VC++ 4.0 NT & 95 only 32 bit only 4.0
- MS VC++ 2.2 NY,95, & 3.1 16 or 32 bit 3.2
- with win32s
- MS VC++ 2.0 Same as 2.2 16 or 32 bit 3.0
- MS VC++ 1.52b All 16 bit only 2.52b
-
- What it looks like is with 2.x they include 1.52 so you can still build
- 16 bit apps. Is this true? Also it looks like 4.0 only run on NT or 95 and
- will only make 32bit. This true?
- So how close did i get it?
- thanks
