Thread: Is there any up to date C++ to C converter?

You could also use a distribution of Linux that runs under Windows.

It's not the most practical of solutions, but with a few hundred dollars for a second machine, it should be doable to get it working in a day or two.

I am on it.

Even if this is not the most practical solution.

Really strange that this bc file can be exclusively created under nix.

I also wonder how it would handle things like int sizes being different on the target and build systems.
