A C++ development system for 16 bit OS/2, Windows and DOS code, can be run natively or by cross compiling from DOS, can also be used to develop for the PSION series 3 if used in conjunction with the PSION s3 SDK. System now owned by Soft Velocity who use it as a utility development system for their Clarion database product and an OS/2 compatible product is no longer being offered. Originally a development of the TopSpeed Modula-2 package and shares the same environment and back-end.
The TopSpeed C++ compiler came out considerably later than the Pascal, Modula-2 and C compilers from the same company. The later versions are a distinct improvement in particular the 3.10v although by now completely outdated and only really usable for DOS development in general and in the case of OS/2 for text mode development.
Version
- 3.01
- 3.02 (1992)
- 3.10 (Dec 1992)
Prerequisites
- For Windows 3.x or Win-OS/2 programming, the TopSpeed TechKit is required, but the tools from it integrate into the TopSpeed environment.
- Although you can develop OS/2 Presentation Manager applications without the OS/2 SDK, it is highly recommended that you use it since the PM support of TopSpeed C++ is rather weak in the parts where tools from the SDK already existed.
- DOS 3.0 or later and/or OS/2 1.3 or later.
