Other compilers that can be used for OS development:
- Ken Thompson's portable compiler collection for Plan 9, now available in *nix systems as part of the Go toolchain.
- Borland Turbo C - Only useful for 16bit OSes - Available from the Borland/Embarcadero Antique Software Museum
- Free Pascal Compiler - Useful for 32-bit OSes. Available at www.freepascal.org. Only issue is that you need to write your own RTL to not call system functions.
- TinyCC Available at http://www.tinycc.org .
- FreeBasic - 32-bit BASIC compiler (not an interpreter) that has many new improvements that will help in OS construction such as pointers and inline assembly, Available at http://www.freebasic.net
- Intel C/C++ Compiler. Commercial (free 30-days trial). Available for Linux, Windows, and OS X. It is very compatible with MSVC++ (I haven't spent even an hour to change compiler) and GCC (as they say). Famed for it's heavy optimisation. Targets IA-32, x86-64, IA-64, and XScale.
