AASHQ Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Hi Pete, or some who knows the question, Does anyone know which programming enviroment Pete Dowson use to build FSUIPC and FSWide ? I always thought he uses C, but after search some post regarding problems with C++ I've find out, Pete is not using C. Just wanna know. Regards, Bob.

Pete Dowson Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Does anyone know which programming enviroment Pete Dowson use to build FSUIPC and FSWide ? YesI do! ;-) BTW it is "WideFS" not "FSwide". I always thought he uses C, but after search some post regarding problems with C++ I've find out, Pete is not using C. Oh yes I am! It is almost 100% C, with a little bit of ASM inserted in special places where I didn't like what C did, or where I couldn't do what I wanted efficiently without it. Currently I'm using the C/C++ compiler from Microsoft's Visual Studio .NET 2003, in Native C mode. Before that I used MSVC/C++ 6, and before that Watcom C, Topspeed C, Lattice C (on the Amiga) going back to BCPL in the 70's (BCPL was a forerunner to C). Between 1963 and 1981 I also used mostly assembly code for whatever machine I was programming, though dabbling a bit in Fortran and APL. I gave Cobol I wide berth! ;-) Regards, Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AASHQ Posted February 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 YesI do! ;-) I bet you do :lol: BTW it is "WideFS" not "FSwide". I knew that...typo 8) I promise you this, I got it wrong now, it will probl. go wrong in any other conversation in the future (got stuck in my head). ...Oh yes I am!

Intresting...I love ANSI C, and getting used to C++ now, esp. when you started with ASM I guess. Nice to know. ...I gave Cobol I wide berth! ;-) It is still hot at my work. 3 people work 40 hours a week with RM/Cobol. So your always working with good stuff then Pete :) Thanks for answering so intresting background questions. Regards, Bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
