We are developing an expert system shell for embedded systems, and have
acquired c++ as our favorite language for that. One aspect of the work
is that discrete event simulation is central in evaluating the embedded
systems to be built. Our development environment is a 3B2/400 but the
run-time systems will be in the 80286 class, and for various reasons
also final simulators should be able operate on PC's (AT).

For c++ to be chosen in the project (against, e.g., PL/M) it is paramount
that we can compile the code (as a final step) on/for a PC.

I would like to know of C-compilers on PC's, that provenly compile the C-code
produced by the c++ front end. If relevant, I will summarize to the net.

I would also be interested in experiences/enhancements of the c++ simulation
primitives, especially in an environment similar to ours.
