We are trying to investigate 3rd party compilers for a Sun-3 workstation.
We have in house two different versions of the Green Hills compiler (1.7.3
from them, and 1.8.3a from Oasys). So far, neither has proved
satisfactory:
*) 68020 support doesn't seem to work right in
a specific case, and
*) calling conventions don't match with the Sun
compiler, which means some libraries don't work.
*) that which doesn work runs 15-20% SLOWER, even
though the code is 40% smaller, and much better looking.
Has anyone out there gotten the Green Hills to work on a Sun-3, or found
some other compiler to use?
Please reply directly to me, or through comp.sys.sun, as I do not read
comp.compilers regularly.
