Where Can I download Cfront from ?

Hi !!!

I wanted to migrate to c++, But Im in no hurry
so I actually want to see how the C++ calls get
translated into C, using Cfront(the original thing
that Bjourne developed).

But I cant find any place to download it from ?
Any links,resources ?

Comeau C++ translates C++ into C, but the translation
depends on the backend compiler used, and the intermediate
embedding of C++ in C is proprietary.


As did cfront (earlier version of Comeau C++ were based
on cfront).


Do you mean that the translation was backend-dependent,
that the intermediate format was proprietary, or both?


At least both.

I am trying to recreate a legacy 68K Apollo development environment on Windows. (Nearly there excpet for the CFRONT). We are currently outsourcing this work but would ideally like to bring it inhouse. All I need now is a CFRONT Compiler to translate C++ source to C source. Our old Apollo's are gone, and need to replace with an equivalent Microsft based Compiler/translator.

Does anyone know of any public domain C++ compiler that uses CFront as its front end? If you do would appreciate the links or other related info. p.s. Info on any commercial C++ compiler that uses CFront is fine too. Thanks. Napi http://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/c_plus_plus/index.html#cfront
