What is the latest / most stable Amiga C/C++ Compiler available?
« on: December 22, 2008, 06:15:14 PM »
Hi all!
I am currently looking at writing some code on my Amigas (1.3 / 2.0 ROMs).   I used to use SAS C/C++ but that has been gone for years.  

What C/C++ compilers are still available and where can one find them?

Thank you!
-David

SASC is the best C compiler for Classic Amigas.  It is fully Amigatized and it has by far the best source level debugger.

It doesn't really do C++ though, which is ok with me.
Wanna try a wonderfull strategy game with lots of handdrawn anims,
Magic Spells and Monsters, Incredible playability and lastability,
English speech, etc. Total Chaos AGA

Any suggestions as to where to find SASC these days?  I have watched eBay and it has not popped up for a while.

Thank you!

AFAIK Storm C (all versions) have terrible bugs in them.

You'd be pretty mad to compile on an Amiga though. I would recommend developing on PC and cross compile and either network over to the Amiga or use CF card.

Then you can use your favourite IDE to compile and fix bugs and control your make files.

DICE is available for free on Aminet.  I know it's ancient, but it might be okay for older machines.

Compiling on an Amiga is fine, as long as you have an 040++ and you don't have stupidly big sources (big sources should normally be split over various files anyway...). I've compiled source files of more than 100Kb without any big speed problems.
