--------- Source: openwatcom Section: devel Priority: extra Maintainer: Jason Spiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Standards-Version: 3.7.2.0 Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 5) Package: openwatcom Architecture: any Description: C/C++ cross-compiler and IDE that produce efficient code Open Watcom includes a C/C++ IDE and a full set of command-line tools for compilation, including the superb Watcom debugger. It emits easy-to-understand errors and warnings when things go wrong. Current outstanding issues include imperfect template support and an inability to dynamically link with shared libraries built by GCC. Also, the debugger does not seem to work properly in Linux. The Open Watcom Fortran compiler is not included in this package. The Open Watcom instruction manuals are also not included in this package; most of the manuals are available for viewing on the web. . Open Watcom generates well-optimized statically linked binaries for Linux, Win32, Win16, OS/2, QNX, NetWare, and DOS real and protected mode, among other targets. Open Watcom is known to work on the i386 platform. In the past, it has also supported other platforms, including PowerPC, SPARC, MIPS, and Alpha AXP, and may still work on those platforms as well. --------- In case you are wondering, openwatcom has no dependencies. The Watcom compiler and other binaries are statically linked with the bits of the Watcom runtime that they depend on. The Watcom tradition has always been static linking. -- When you open Windows, bugs get in! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
