Hi czerny.

I've tried CC386 from the same vendor and I found that is very good. Sadly there is no forum for the product.
I haven't tried Orange C yet.

What I have learned is that pelles c can handle nameless unions in structs (a c11 feature), and orange c can not. It uses a dummy union name 'u'. I have seen this for example in:

Code: [Select]

typedef struct {
  HTREEITEM hParent;
  HTREEITEM hInsertAfter;
#if (_WIN32_IE >= 0x0400)
  union {
    TVITEMEX itemex;
    TVITEM   item;
  } DUMMYUNIONNAME;
#else
  TVITEM    item;
#endif
} TVINSERTSTRUCT, *LPTVINSERTSTRUCT;

For those who want to test compiling occ.exe with PellesC.
Source files are modified for PellesC (msvc).
Test occ.exe with something like 'occ.exe /C+F /Smasm hello.c' to see assembler code it generate.

BTW: occ.exe can't handle PellesC include files (Win).

I have tried some time ago. It's nice, but I had some little mistakes - so it makes not really fun to use it.
you can contact the author by email and he answers usualy quickly. :)

What are the mistakes you have found?

I have had some problems with same compiler/linker options. But may be I have misunderstood the docs.
