Is a compiled FIVEWIN/(x)HARBOUR program a C program?

[Detlef Hoefner]

Marco,

i fear that you will not be honest to your customer if you claim that your app is a 'c' app because it is compiled c code produced by the xHarbour (pre)compiler.

Please, have a look to the c code created from the xHarbour compiler.
And after you might compare it to a source code of a native c or c++ program.

A real c programmer would be very astonished if he had to work on the c output of xHarbour. ( i fear he would find it silly )

regards,
Detlef

Detlef,
you are right
but we have to distinguish beetween tecnical questions and legal questions.

I spoke about a legal question.

Due the fact that it is possibile for a thirth part to generate the executable file using only the c sources then your app is "legally" written in C.

Whatever you people say to your customers, just include both xHarbour/Fivewin and C/C++. And in this order. Because we use both tools. . If they need proof, show both PRG and C codes...
