Use of Open Watcom Compiler on Linux (Mint Vanessa 20.3)

[ThierryD]

Hi,

I try to use OW compiler into C::B IDE on Linux.
In attachment, the result of this test (succesfull).

After this test four questions at C::B Teams :
    "Why "options" by default like "-Wall" "/Zi" appears on command line to compile after create new configuration
   of compiler on Linux ?"
   "Why "Other compiler options" are not used when positioned in project properties on Linux ?"
   "Why "Other compiler options" are not used when positioned in global settings of compiler on Linux ?"
   "Can you integrate Open Watcom compiler directly into IDE on Linux and when ?"

Many thanks.

Why did you clone the Intel compiler? Modify the Watcom one or clone it.

Some compilers are only on some OSes. Open Watcom  (OW) might be one of them.

Hi Miguel,

Sorry, but OW is not proposed in list of "available" compilers on Linux (but true, on Windows systems)...

Greeting.
