Developing for BeOS
Developer Tools

I've been told that the developer package includes "Be libraries and headers for Be and Macintosh CodeWarrior IDE." Do I still need to purchase CodeWarrior for BeOS and Macintosh? I currently use Symantec C++.

Metrowerks has split CodeWarrior for Macintosh and CodeWarrior for BeOS into two separate products. You can use either product, but to develop for the BeOS, you need the BeOS headers and libraries. As of CodeWarrior 11, these are no longer included in the CodeWarrior for Macintosh package.

The BeOS CD-ROM comes with a version of the Metrowerks BeIDE that has a linker limited to 64K, but you can upgrade to the full version through Metrowerks. The CD also includes all the headers and libraries necessary to develop for the BeOS. The headers and libraries are also on the Be web site:

You cannot use Symantec's compilers at this time, unfortunately.

Does CodeWarrior for BeOS/PowerPC run on both BeBoxes and Power Macs?

Is there a version of gcc for the BeOS?
