The EPC ANSI C compiler is a full implementation of the ANSI Standard, enriched with the performance-enhancing features for which EPC is renowned and containing extensions which add to the basic functionality of the compiler. ANSI C offers the user benefits of standardization and, in particular, portability. It also applies sophisticated optimizations which lead to the generation of highly efficient executable code. Debugging can be performed either using industry standard utilities, such as sdb, with which it is compatible, or by using EPC's own advanced, interactive, graphical debugger, edb .
Object code is generated in standard object formats, thus facilitating mixed language programming.
Like all of EPC's products, EPC ANSI C is supported to the highest standards by the compiler writers themselves, backed up by a highly skilled team of technical support staff, and comes complete with comprehensive hardcopy documentation. EPC ANSI C is relied upon by major international hardware and software manufacturers to build UNIX systems and renowned applications packages. The documentation is very good, the performance was top-notch, and the optimizations excellent. Product Highlights Development Support EPC ANSI C supports both the basic SVR4 debugging tool, sdb, together with EPC's own advanced, interactive, graphical debugger, edb , where expert debugging facilities are required. These tools can prove to be invaluable in detecting performance bottlenecks in user applications.
