The GCC-1750 compilation system for the 16-bit spacecraft computer combines the mature technology of the C/C++ compiler from the Free Software Foundation with a new code generator for the MIL-STD-1750 and an advanced run-time system.

Using GCC-1750 you can develop reliable and efficient application programs that run on any 1750A or 1750B target. You may also use the companion product GCC-ERC32, which offers 100% compatibility with GCC-1750, but generates code for the 32-bit ERC32 target.

Audience

This guide is written for the experienced programmer who is already familiar with the C and C++ programming languages and with embedded systems programming in general. We assume some knowledge of the target computer architecture. If you are already familiar with the GNU C Compiler, this guide may be all you need.
