C compiler, debugger and IDE for development of 16 bit OS/2 and DOS code, based on an older Microsoft C compiler.
IBM's C/2 contains many additional features while maintaining a compatibility with former IBM PC C Compiler Version 1.0.
The product was withdrawn from marketing at 31 December 1997 and replaced by IBM VisualAge C++ that was already available from 1995.
Features
- Runs on and generates code for IBM OS/2 and IBM DOS (on 8086/88 machines only IBM DOS is supported)
- C/2 and generated code can run concurrently within OS/2's multi-tasking environment
- Support for multiple selectable memory models
- Library routines that provide greater program function
- Additional compiler switches
- enhanced MAKE utility (macros and inference rules)
- Interactive symbolic debug utility that allows isolation of program errors at the source code level (CodeView)
- EXEMOD utility for modification of DOS *.EXE file header
- Math Co-Processor support / Provides Math Co-Processor emulation
For creating Presentation Manager applications IBM C/2 Version 1.10 and IBM OS/2 Programmer Toolkit Version 1.1 are required.
