- It sounds as though you need a 32-bit Extended DOS C compiler. The
- two I like are Intel 386/486 C Code Builder and DJGPP. Code Builder
- will generate 32-bit flat memory model programs that will run in
- dos sessions under Windows and OS/2. DGJPP programs a 32-bit flat
- memory model, but they will not run under Windows or OS/2. Code Builder
- costs about $300. DJGPP is free (it's based on the GNU C compiler).
- DJGPP also supports C++, which Code Builder does not. Code Builder's
- debugger, which looks like an early version of MS CodeView, is kind of
- lame.
-
- Other 32-bit dos compilers come from Zortech, MetaWare, Watcom, and
- Microway. They are more expensive (Zortech is about $500 and the others
- start at about $800).
