The small questuion:

Is it possible to compile under DOS using tools distributed from the site?  I just need a moderm C++ compiler to compile for DOS or DOSX under DOS.
August 25, 2001
No, the tools only run under a Win32 system. They will generate a DOS or DOSX executable, however, which you can transfer to a DOS system via a floppy disk.

Is it applicable to all versions or to 8.x ones?  I found that 7.7B0 and 7.7B1 include DOSX versions of the compiler but no headers and libraries.  I tried to use it with headerss and libs from 8.1c but failed.  The SC said:

    Internal error: cgreg 44
    --- errorlevel 1

Can I use 7.7x version with dm headers and libraries instead of those distributed with Symantec C++ 7.5?

One more question:  Does the CD contains development tools for DOS?

Yes.

They will generate DOS programs, but the tools themselves are win32 executables.

1.  Does dmc 7.7B0 run under DOS?

2.  If it does why I got the error message?

Yes.

That is a bug in the compiler. If you can reduce it to the smallest source that reproduces it, I can see about fixing it. -Walter

this hello-world program give me the error message:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
    printf("Hello, world!\n");
    return 0;
}

That sounds hopelessly broken. All I can suggest is switch to another version.
