| Hello,
Please forgive me for my poor memory, I had an Amiga 1200 in my 20s and I'm now in my 40s.
I'm just starting to learn Amiga C, and I vaguely recall something about OpenSource C Compilers like NorthC etc could not be used for programs which had used the Intuition Windows interface and you had to send for a disk with the libraries.
Sorry about the newbie question. Can anyone refresh me?
Thanks |

look for AmiDevCpp, this is a cross compiler(GCC) which has an IDE on windows and can compile for OS3 and OS4. Although the files can be bigger than say StormC or AztecC etc

IIRC, NorthC doesn't include the AmigaOS include files. But no need to send for a disk with the libraries, you can download the OS3.9 NDK which contains all the includes. |

The 1st question should be, on what HW are you developing ?
The 2nd one would be what kind of SW to you want to produce ?
And 3rd how much experience do you have ?
Depending on this one can choose the right compiler:
vbcc, or Dice if it has to free and your running on very restricted HW.
SAS or Storm (old commercial compilers) if you have medium HW and want to do something Amiga-specific.
GCC if got plenty HW or plan to port something.
Next you have to choose your Editor/intregrated envoirement. SAS and Storm came with their own. CubicIDE/GoldED can work with most compilers. The official SDKs for MorphOS,AROS and OS4 are streamlined for GCC and also provide some intregration. _________________ - We don't need good ideas, we haven't run out on bad ones yet - blame Canada |

Hi,
Q1 - Amiga Classic A1200 via an emulator.
Q2 - Just learning ,so intuition windows is what I would like to learn.
Q3 - Little. I have done a bit of Turbo C in the past and GCC on the Raspberry Pi.
I have the Amiga C book by Paul Overaa and have posted another post asking for the ADF for the accompanying disks. I have also downloaded an Amiga Shopper C tutorial.
Thanks |

Coincidence perhaps, but a C tutorial was linked here today.
The text is in German, but the code is C and Google might help with the translation!

If you don't need C++ and you don't mind using an editor and shell, then I would try vbcc first. It's a 5 minute install using an Amiga install program (install the NDK3.9 first though).

If you are into programming, you will probably eventually want a GCC install but it's a major pain to setup correctly. If you want an IDE, either Cubic IDE (uses GCC or vbcc) or StormC v4 (uses GCC) are probably the best for AmigaOS3. If your emulation is running on a Windows machine then you might try AmiDevCpp and copy the 68k executables into the emulation.

I was going to recommend asking over on EAB but maybe you found it already?

| @jonesypeter Someone recently put together a Geekgadgets based 68k compiler system and made it available at Aminet. Check out ADE.zip at Aminet. For an editor you can also get TurboText20.lha from Aminet.
