I wrote a Pascal compiler in C++ and use it now !

C++ is only good for writing a compiler of a much superior language like Pascal.

So use your C++ to write a PASCAL compiler or BASIC and use this.

I did: www.GLBasic.com

On the other hand: If you can write a compiler for Basic/Pascal in
C++, why would you use these instead of C++? If you know so much about
C++, it's easier and much more flexible to use C++ than higher level
languages...

So you admit at the foundation there will still be C++ ?

Well done. I remember doing PASCAL back in the 80's but I didn't pay too
much attention. At the time I was more infatuated with 6502 machine code
and being surprised how similar 8088 code was to it ;)

We expect better trolling around here.

I am tying to call a Pascal function from C++, and vice versa. Does anyone know how to do this, or where detailed information on this topic can be found? For the C++ to Pascal call I have tried declaring the Pascal function as:- extern "C" void PASCALTESTFUNC1(); within my C++ code. However, the linker is giving me an unresolved

Hi, I think I understand now a bit better what the difference is between a c compiler and a pascal compiler. For example: When compiling source code with a pascal compiler. The pascal compiler will simply stop when it is missing an implementation for a procedure or whatever.

I am trying to port an old Pascal DOS game to DOS C/C++. I am wondering if anyone is familar with the dos & crt Pascal units and whether there are C/C++ equivalent libraries. Maybe dos.c & crt.c?

Am using Borland C++ 4.5 for the old dos.h APIs. It appears that newer versions of compilers stop support for the oldskool DOS routines. Am trying to convert/port an oldskool Pascal program that uses registers/ interrupts into C/C++. 1. What are the inline($FA); & inline($FB); Pascal functions? What is the C/C++ equivalent? inline($CD / $1C); inline($9C);

Hy! I desperately need help! I need to make application that would accept Pascal code and check if it returns good results. My idea is (from a beginner point of view) to make application in python that would send code (text) to pascal compiler (Free pascal compiler that can be used from command prompt in windows) and it would return result and then application would show that result.

Hallo allemaal, During the conversion of my program from Pascal to C, I was more or less able to find the C equivalent of most Pascal functions so far. Only four gave me some real trouble. I solved them but it could be I overlooked something. 1) In Pascal you can declare functions inside a function. AFAIK this is not possible with C. Or am I wrong?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
