#150004 - it's the other way round
Responding to: ???'s previous message

Maarten, I'm sory, I see no interest of any size in portability between compilers for I/O code, I am certain that switching compiler for the same processor family is an extremely rare event.


It's thje other way round.

Once making such a thing, the easiest way is 1. give enough flexibility so that anybody can add to it (read: leave the hard stuff to the users :-) ); 2. multiple compiler/language output is relatively easy once the logic of the thing is figured out, and will add to the "market" of the thing.

I am not saying I will jump at it at the moment, just considering doing this quite for a while. Thanks all for the comments.

PS. Tried to download and run the SiLabs thing, it was an outrageous 7MB installer to install 15MB directly into the root without asking; but those 15MB can be packed by a stupid zip into 4MB... I know, I know, "broadband" and "who cares" are the keywords of today, but where's the engineer/programmer prudence? :->
