What think about a staring page for win with all step for using
harbour with one from msvc and gcc?
It's just setting up the compiler (as per respective compiler's
docs), and running make_vc.bat for MSVC (exactly the same as for
BCC, except the name of the batch file). For MinGW+msys it's just
running 'sh make_gnu.sh'.
Building apps involves running 'hbmk.bat test.prg' or
'sh hbmk test.prg' command.
Listing all the minor details and cases could probably fill
a smaller book, but for 99% of ppl this is enough for a jump start.
Have somebody here distributed application on win32 with msvc/gcc
with a high number of user?
There are plenty of them on the market. If you mean Harbour + MSVC,
I see no difference between an MSVC and a BCC Harbour build in
terms of stability or maturity. It's effectively the same codebase.
MSVC RTL and compiler is much more widely tested and used on the
field than BCC. MinGW/GCC as a compiler is also mature, and it's
using the Windows OS shipped RTL .dlls, so no problems here.
There is no way for interchange lib between bcc,msvc,gcc?
No. [ Yeah, It's good to have standards. ]
GCC target processors as of version 4.3 include :
Alpha,ARM,Atmel AVR, Blackfin ,HC12 , H8/300 , IA-32 (x86), x86-64,
IA-64, Motorola 68000,MIPS,PA-RISC,PDP-11,PowerPC,R8C/M16C/
M32C,SPU,System/390/zSeries, SuperH,SPARC,VAX
GCC is the umbrella name, plus supporting a platform needs
more than just supporting the CPU.
MinGW for Windows specifically supports only Win32, with
Win64 somewhere in the works.
