- I'm looking for the best C++ product which can compile code for both
- Windows and Unix. My requirements are:
- - ODBC connectivity
- - TCP/IP library
- - simple GUI functions
- - all the cross-platform library functions I can get
-
- I'd prefer to go with Visual C++ but I highly doubt it compiles on Unix.
- I can tolerate different compilers, but the code must at least be portable
- between the two platforms.
-
- I've read that Watcom is the best cross-platform product. Any thoughts?
