In a similar vein, here is Lua 5.2 being compiled with Turbo C 1.0 (impressive that software written in 2013 compiles unmodified on a 1990 compiler!) https://w

- octo_t 12y agoThats what happens when you used a language which has an ISO or similar standard.
- TillE 12y agoSure, but you also have to stick to the older standards. This wouldn't work if Lua were using any of the new features of C99.
- groovy2shoes 12y agoTurbo C 1.0 was actually pre-ANSI C. Turbo C 2.0 was compatible with a draft of the ANSI C standard, and I recall having some trouble getting Lua 5.0 to compile with it due to locale stuff. The video actually features Turbo C++ 1.0, though, which was a different product, so the title is misleading. Regardless, I agree that standards are very nice to have.
