- Just to clarify - there is a version of MS C/C++ 7.0 that runs on OS/2 1.x.
- It generates code for DOS or Windows only. It is meant to be a transition
- for people who have used previous MS products on OS/2.
-
- The files needed to run C7 on OS/2 are available on Compuserve in the
- Microsoft Languages Forum Library. You need to have the DOS/Windows
- version of the product since the Compuserve files only provide compiler,
- linker and PWB versions that run on OS/2 1.x.
-
- Microsoft supports this version of the product via Compuserve.
