@mainframed767 @smallsco Apple’s default/standard compiler for A/UX is K&R only, so it will compile only old/specially prepared C sources.

Then, there’s the “extra” ANSI compiler from Apple. http://archive.3rz.de/Mac/a-ux/A-UX%20Developer%20Tools%201.1%20(Apple%20ANSI%20C%20compiler).iso.gz that I archived from original CDs. It’s more capable and was part of the SDK for A/UX 3.

Or you could use gcc.

New video: Let's Code MS DOS 0x31: ANSI C Data Types

The C programming language has only few builtin data types. But for a beginner those can be a bit confusing. So we will have a look at what data types are offered, and what kind of new datatypes you can build with C.

@chad @Chigaze @grammargirl I was going to say as a C programmer, I’m not only using the semicolon all the time, I can get quite distraught when I miss one! 😅

Compile small Binaries with ANSI C on Linux

With the right compiler and compiler settings, both the object code as well as the resulting binary can be generated much smaller.

Does anyone know why the C standards body went with the solution of those weird PRIu64 macros instead of a new format specifier like %j or whatever?

My google-fu is weak, can’t even locate a copy of the C99 standard that might maybe mention what this is for.

@grunfink Awesome!

I submitted a PR to update MacPorts' snac to 2.31 as well, fun:

https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/18651

MacPorts specific notes:

* fixed livecheck.
* Removed the "use_parallel_build no" line (thanks to @saagar for the reminder to see if that was still an issue) and it passed the CI/build bots check!

I am doing some tests on an embedded system with a very old version of Debian and GCC, I need tips on software that can compile on that system without much nonsense of requiring current versions of GCC or some LIBS, for now I have compiled the latest version of LUA.

Please boost!
