I'll try to answer your questions to the best of my ability. 1. ATS Postiats (also known as ATS2) does not currently support MSVC, and likely never will since ATS Xanadu (a.k.a. ATS3) is the main focus of the lead developer. 2. I don't know what C standard ATS compiles to, but it's probably safe to assume it compiles to C99 unless there is evidence to the contrary. 3. In ATS2 you have full access to C's pre-processor, and can use it just like how you would when programming in C. 4. I know you can use pthreads in ATS, there are some examples of this in the ATS Postiats. Assuming win32-threads are accessible through a C API, then ATS can use it via FFI.
If you are interested in learning to use ATS, I'd reccommend checking out the documentation available on the ATS website <http://www.ats-lang.org/Documents.html> and the wiki page for ATS2 <https://github.com/githwxi/ATS-Postiats/wiki>. And don't be afraid to post addition questions. :D On Friday, January 21, 2022 at 11:30:43 AM UTC-5 saif.ras...@gmail.com wrote: > correction for 4 b: if not 4 a then can i jam win32-thread code into "<% > %>" delims > > On Friday, January 21, 2022 at 9:28:32 PM UTC+5 saif.ras...@gmail.com > wrote: > >> hi everyone, sorry for noob questions >> 1. will there be support added for msvc? >> 2. does ats code compile to c89 and/or c99? >> 3. does it support pre-processor? >> 4. a) if it does would you be able to use win32-threads aswell as >> pthreads? >> b) if not can i jam win32-thread code into the "<% %>" delimiters >> thanks. >> > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ats-lang-users" group.
