I am working in a project which needs to run in a Windows NT, the application must be implemented in C++98. Currently we only have Visual Studio 6 but we are having many problems with basic syntax statements.

Do you known any alternative compiler which can comply with the c++98 standard and works in an ancient system as Win NT?

We already tested Watcom but is not usefull either...

  • Maybe Turbo C++? – user7860670 Oct 18 '19 at 10:26

    VC++ 6 was pretty far from C++98. The last VS version to target NT was 2005, and the C++98 support in that was reasonably complete. The only question is where you can lay your hands on a license. (It's included in some subscriptions to visualstudio.com.) – molbdnilo Oct 18 '19 at 11:01

    Borland C++ Builder 4 was brilliant for that era. I'm not sure if it's possible to acquire it still though. – Ted Lyngmo Oct 18 '19 at 11:09
  • If you want Borland C++ Builder you can find copies on https://archive.org/ and https://winworldpc.com/ - I haven't tried any of them. – Jerry Jeremiah Aug 11 '22 at 22:21
