Hi group,

I have to make C (yes the old C) for a TinyPC
(http://www.data-modular.com/tinyboxf.htm).
it seems to be an x86 embedded with DOS 6.22.

My question is : as far as i can compile for PDA in x86, can i compile some
C for dos 6.22, using Visual studio .net ?
I have tested Visual studio 1.52, and i don't want to develop using this old
environement.
i just need some ideas. thanks

No. Visual 1.52 is the last MS compiler that targeted 16 bits
platforms.

- Use VC.NET IDE and build from the command line using VC 1.52.
- Use another "old" C bits compiler such as djgpp, with whatever ide
you like (Visual or another).

No.

There may be other DOS C compilers from other vendors, but none from
Microsoft more recent than the one you say that you don't want to use.
