TAL2C is a fast, 32-bit TAL compiler with a C code generation back-end that converts programs written in TAL to ANSI/ISO Standard C/C++.
TAL2C runs under Windows and is more intelligent than a simple text converter:
TAL2C understands TAL semantics, enabling you to preserve the logic of TAL source code in converted C output code
Original comments are preserved in context
Tal2C can be configured to generate C code that uses HP's proprietary extensions, suitable for compilation by HP's C and NMC compilers
The resulting C code can be directly compiled on many popular platforms, such as Windows NT and Unix
TAL2C output can feed directly into HP NonStop's C/C++ compiler
Benefits of TAL to C/C++ Conversion:
Avoid re-coding software to move to a new platform
Access new NonStop functionality unavailable to TAL programs (e.g. SQL/MX)
Compile directly to RISC or Itanium without acceleration or translation
Allows developers to use HP's Enterprise Toolkit
Tap into larger C/C++ skill pool
TAL2C Software
