289.0. "ANSI C on VMS (DEC or 3rd party)??" by MUNICH::KRNETA () Wed Nov 07 1990 04:20

    Hi,
    
    Is there a ANSI C on VMS, either DEC or 3rd party? Do we have a plan to
    develop if there is no ANSI compatible C on VMS?
    
    Many thanks

The GNU C compiler (see the GNU conference) claims to be at least
*more* ANSI compliant than VMS C.  For future plans, contact product
management, specifically Cathy DECWET::Richardson.

Note that true ANSI compliance needs header and library changes that
are not yet done (or at least not released).
289.2GNU C <=>DEC C<=>VAX C !!MUNICH::KRNETAThu Nov 08 1990 03:2411
    Hi,
    
    GNU C runs on Ultrix,not VMS. They want to be able able to move sources
    developed using DEC C (ANSI :-) to VMS because they have mixed
    environment. Is VMS C able to accept that? Or maybe we should tell them
    to forget the idea?
    
    Many thanks,

You can get more specific information about VAX C from the TURRIS::VAXC 
conference.
