Future Tabor owners will likely want to have a nice development environment, and it seems as if StormC 5 Editor may be one of a few different options to consider.
After a bit of searching around, it looks as if the StormC IP has been sold by Haage & Partner to Alinea, which currently sells StormC in a couple of different flavors - one is StormC version 4, meant for Classic AmigaOS. The other one seems to be an editor meant for 4.1. The
product page states that "
The first step is taken. The editor module of the prospective StormC5 IDE is completed." It doesn't, however, say much more - and it doesn't really mention what kind of compiler that the editor relies on. With this in mind:
- Is Alinea currently working on a native version of StormC for Release 4.1?
- If they are - will it be based on gcc, or is it a brand new C/C++ compiler built from the ground up?
- If they are - how far along has the project come? Has any launch date been announced?
- What compiler does StormC 5 Ed currently rely on?
- How well integrated is StormC 5 Ed with said compiler? Does StormC 5 Ed serve as a full blown IDE?
