C++ Compilers
Go Up to C++ Toolchains
RAD Studio provides compilers for all supported target platforms.
Each compiler belongs to one of the following generations of compilers:
- Previous-generation compilers, which are the original C++Builder 32-bit Windows compiler, BCC32, and compilers with a similar code base.
- Clang-enhanced compilers, which are compilers that are based on the Clang compiler.
RAD Studio provides the following C++ compilers:
| Platform | Compiler | Generation |
|---|---|---|
| 32-bit Windows | BCC32C | Clang |
| BCC32X | Clang | |
| BCC32 | Previous | |
| 64-bit Windows | BCC64 | Clang |
| BCC64X | Clang | |
| 64-bit iOS | BCCIOSARM64 | Clang |
| Android | BCCAARM | Clang |
Attention: When using the 32-bit Windows compilers for more than one C++ Project dependent on one other, the code compiled by one compiler cannot be static linked to by code built with a different compiler because they are not ABI compatible. To use two different compilers the code must be in a separate DLL and expose a flat c interface, otherwise, you can choose only one of the compilers to have a successful compilation process.
