Title: Support for LCC-Win32 compiler?
Post by: davar on March 21, 2006, 11:05:06 am

Hi folks,

I like C::B a lot. I have question, if c compiler from lcc-win32 will be also supported. The main reason why I ask is extreme speed of this compiler. Process  change_code-compile-test is very fast with lcc.

Thank you for reply

Hello,

If you are interested you can try to include LCC-Win32 by yourself :). Here (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_Fortran_Compiler) for an example.

Best wishes,
Michael

I'm currently in a stage where I would need the LCC, too. This is to compile S-Functions for Matlab using C::B. Did you manage to integrate LCC finally? I'm not sure whether the instructions provided by Michael were helpful because the Fortran compiler is command-line compatible to GCC but LCC seems not to be...?!
With regards, Morten.

Alright, since I got no answer and the issue remains I'd like to state that I've started working on the LCC integration. If there's somebody out there that is able to contribute - please step forward. Otherwise you'll have to wait for and live with what my ol' mind will produce... ;-)
With regards, Morten.

The compiler addition is finished. The patch can be found at BerliOS (Patch #997).
There are remaining issues that are limitations of the LCC compiler itself and the incompatibilities with C::B. Anyway: These incompatibilities are cleary the result of stupid (excuse my french) coding in LCC. I guess the'll not be solved in the near future unless the LCC developers re-think their configuration management. Further information can be found on BerliOS.

With regards, Morten.

Edit: I'm off for the next few days so don't expect answers to questions that may arise quickly.
