Manx C 5.???
4 messages in this thread
Mike,
Any idea when a WORKING version of the compiler will be available???
BTW, found yet another bug. Anybody report that enums are always
allocated as 16 bits (Manual claims they are sizeof(int)) no matter which
size is used for integers?

Peter, contrary to the tone of your message lots and lots of people are
using 5.0a with little or no difficulties. Whether or not you encounter
bugs depends alot on your coding style.
See my message here in the C language area about the 5.0b release…
enum problem is known, and fixed in 5.0b.

Mike,
For most of the little utilities I've written for myself work OK. Then
again they don't tend to push the compiler very hard. The "tone" of my
message is due to all the time I've wasted trying to port a few complex
programs (compilers, waveform processing programs, etc.) that I use at
work. These are all running under two or three different OS's with
different compilers and were written to be portable. So far all the
problems I've run into were compiler bugs.
Combine this with the fact that I ordered and paid for 5.0 a year ago
when you first started taking orders, then discovering that somebody
decided not to bother shipping me the new version until I called again and
asked for it, you shouldn't be surprised that I'm a little annoyed about
the whole thing.
