DJGPP
Encyclopedia : D : DJ : DJG : DJGPP
DJGPP is a 32-bit C/C++ development system for 386 and above PCs that runs under DOS (it will also work in a DOS window from within an operating system that supports DOS windows, such as Windows). It was developed by DJ Delorie who started the project in 1989. It is a software port of the popular gcc compiler, as well as many other GNU utilities such as cp, ls, mv, and ld, to DOS DPMI (DOS Protected Mode Interface). It uses a flat memory model, where code and data segments are coincident. Additional segments can be accessed indirectly.
DJGPP presents the programmer an interface which is very close to the ANSI C standard and the POSIX UNIX standard. Thus it is very useful for cross-platform development.
