Which industry runs C compilers on embeded devices? Because that is what the part you elipsised out was talking about.



Oh... yes. You are right. My bad.


many do tho. i have targetted c89 and maybe c99 on several embedded devices


They cross compile. No one is compiling code on these machines.


But you're running the compiler on the device rather than cross-compile?


I doubt you're running C compilers on those devices.
