Frequently Asked Questions

I'm using C++ but would prefer to use a different compiler than the one on CEC. Is this possible?

CS 241 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Sure. However, you will be responsible for making any needed modifications to the provided code. The provided IntervalTimer will not work on other platforms since it makes calls into the Unix operating system. You can replace this by whatever system utility you have to get the time. Then by getting the time before and after the algorithm runs you can take their difference to determine the elapsed time. Just be sure that your procedure is the only process running.

Is C++ a superset of C? Can I use a C++ compiler to compile C code?

Infrequently Asked Questions in comp.lang.c
C++ is a superset of something, we're not sure what. You can use a C++ compiler to compile C code, but the results may surprise you.

I already have C++ compiler x, can I use it?

FAQ
Yes, but you should compile and run your test cases using the Cygwin/GNU compiler (g++) in the lab before you submit your assignments. If it works there, then it's ok. (Of course we may find test cases for which your program doesn't work on any compiler.) where files is a list of one or more files that the compiler is to compile, and options is one or more of the following. (There are others, these are just the most relevant ones.) Give all warnings.

Can I use your Basic compiler program to convert Basic programs into C?

FAQ
The compiler only works for a small subset of Basic and produces quite inefficient code. I do not recommend it.

What's a free or cheap C compiler I can use?

Tools and Resources
A popular and high-quality free C compiler is the FSF's GNU C compiler, or gcc. An MS-DOS port, djgpp, is also available. As far as I know, there are versions of gcc for Macs and Windows machines, too. A very inexpensive MS-DOS compiler is Power C from Mix Software, 1132 Commerce Drive, Richardson, TX 75801, USA, 214-783-6001. A shareware MS-DOS C compiler is available from ftp.hitech.com.au/hitech/pacific. Registration is optional for non-commercial use. Archives associated with the comp.

What optimizations does the C# compiler perform when you use the /optimize+ compiler option?

C
The following is a response from a developer on the C# compiler team: We get rid of unused locals (i.e., locals that are never read, even if assigned). We get rid of unreachable code. We get rid of try-catch with an empty try. We get rid of try-finally with an empty try. We get rid of try-finally with an empty finally.

Is it possible to use naturals but to have them implemented using natural C integers?

CADP FAQ
Yes. Use the X_NATURAL library instead of NATURAL. X stands for eXternal. You can have a look at the following files: $CADP/lib/X_NATURAL.lib -- LOTOS definitions $CADP/incl/X_NATURAL.h -- corresponding C types/functions $CADP/demos/demo_12 -- example of use $CADP/demos/demo_16 -- example of use You will have to include X_NATURAL.h in your .t file.

Which C/C++ compiler should I use to build for /uns?

The /uns Maintainers' Frequently Unasked Questions List
of this fall, all Linux machines should use Fedora Core 2, where the system compiler is gcc 3.3.3. This is a fairly cutting-edge gcc and should handle most modern C/C++ code. On Solaris 2.5, the supported GNU C compiler is much older and buggier and should not be used; use the version in /uns if at all possible. Please note that various versions of gcc/g++ (particularly, though not limited to, 2.x and 3.x lines) may use mutually incompatible C++ object ABI's.

How do I call C++ functions from Gedae function boxes using the Microsoft Visual C++ compiler?

Welcome to Gedae's World Home!
Let's assume that you already have a C++ library add_cpp.lib that was created inside the Microsoft Visual C++ workspace. This add_cpp.lib library contains a function float add_cpp(float a,float b) that you wish to use inside a Gedae function box. Follow these steps to access the function in your box: Write a new C++ file that provides a wrapper function for add_cpp() that exports the function to C using the extern "C" construct. In this example, create a file add_c.

Where is the C compiler or where can I get one?

Solaris 2 FAQ
Where have you been? :-) Sun has dropped their old K&R C compiler, supposedly to create a market for multiple compiler suppliers to provide better performance and features. Here are some of the contenders: SunPro, SMCC, and various distributors sell a new ANSI-standard C compiler on the unbundled (extra cost) SPARCcompiler/SPARCworks CD-ROM. There are some other nice tools there too, like a "make tool" and a visual diff (interactive diff).

People keep telling me that getch() is not standard, but my C compiler has it. Are they wrong?

Infrequently Asked Questions in comp.lang.c
They've been programming more than ten years. You haven't. Draw your own conclusions. That's right! They hadn't noticed it. No doubt their compilers have it too, and its behavior is identical everywhere else in the world, also. That would explain everything.

I'm using up my download limit. Is it possible to use less bandwidth?

DIG Internet Radio - About & FAQ
Try various lower speeds (modem 56k, ISDN etc) to find one that balances audio quality and download limits. Please note that this will reduce the audio quality, but may improve the consistency of your connection. Windows XP also has a nasty habit of putting these settings back to its default when it auto-updates, so if the problem improves then gets worse again, you may need to check the settings again.

Do I really need a C compiler to use RootCause?

RootCause/Aprobe FAQ
Unix: Only if you want to apply probes to native code. You can trace Java and native code, and dump Java parameters, without a C compiler. However, the only thing you can do with native code is trace it; you can't dump parameters or variables or generate probes (e.g., SNAPSHOT or COMMENT) because those are implemented by generating APC source code and then compiling it with Aprobe's apc compiler, which requires a C compiler backend.

Do I have to use the AspectJ compiler?

AspectJ Frequently Asked Questions
The AspectJ compiler or weaver is required at some point, but many people can use AspectJ without changing their build or deployment process significantly. For aspects that are not required to compile, you can use the AspectJ binary weaver, run at build-time or class-load-time. You can write aspects using the original code style (which must be compiled with the AspectJ compiler) or using the annotation style new in AspectJ 5 (which may be compiled with Javac or the AspectJ compiler).

How do I use scanf() and gets() functions with the PICC/PICC18 compiler ?

HI-TECH Software Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use scanf() and gets() functions with the PICC/PICC-18 compiler? A. The gets() function is not supplied by the compiler. Becuase gets() will get a string from a programer specified input, such as the serial port, it is easier for the programer to write this function then for it to be supplied in a library. There is a console get string function, cgets(), that will read string from an input using console formatting. The cgets() function is available in the cgets.

Can you support my C compiler XXX?

FFmpeg FAQ
It depends. If your compiler is C99-compliant, then patches to support it are likely to be welcome if they do not pollute the source code with #ifdefs related to the compiler. Visual C++ is not compliant to the C standard and does not support the inline assembly used in FFmpeg. If you wish - for whatever weird reason - to use Visual C++ for your project then you can link the Visual C++ code with libav* as long as you compile the latter with a working C compiler.
