The focus of having multiple compilers is to optimize the + compiled C code for specific hardware and software environments. This + has lead to a vast number of compilers but some have been abandoned in + the path. + + Some compilers were developed in 1970s (PCCM by Bell Labs) while the + recent ones are from 2017 (AOCC by AMD). + + Some compilers like LabWindows are used by a specific and small group + of developers. At the same time, there are compilers like GNU GCC and + ICC that are widely used till date. + + Following is the ultimate list of C compilers that found some users: + Compiler Release Developer In Wide Use Users + [23]pccm 1973 Bell Labs No General + [24]BSD C 1979 Zolman No BSD Unix + Aztec C 1980 Manx Software Systems No DOS + [25]ACK 1980 Tanenbaum, Jacobs Yes NetBSD + [26]Lattice C 1982 Steve Krueger No DOS + [27]MPW 1986 Apple No Early Mac + [28]GCC 1987 GNU Project Yes General + [29]Turbo C 1987 Turbo No Turbo IDE + [30]Megamax C 1988 Megamax, Inc No Atari + Mac + Acorn C 1988 Acorn Yes RISC OS + [31]LabWindows 1989 National Instruments Yes NIC + QuickC 1990 Microsoft No DOS + [32]Oracle C 1991 Oracle Yes Oracle Developer Studio + [33]MinGW 1993 Peters Yes Windows + [34]MSVC 1993 Microsoft Yes Visual IDE + CodeWarrior 1993 Metrowerks No Motorola 68K + [35]LCC 1994 Dave Hanson, Chris Fraser No MathWorks + [36]cc65 1999 Bassewitz Yes Old 6502 systems + [37]Open64 2002 Open64 dev Yes Itanium, x86-64 + [38]ICC 2003 Intel Yes Intel Systems + [39]Watcom C 2003 Watcom Yes General + Novell + PathScale 2003 PathScale No MIPS + [40]FPGA C 2005 Bass Yes FPGA + [41]TCC 2005 Fabrice Bellard Yes Various libraries + [42]CLang 2007 LLVM Developers Yes General + [43]XL C 2007 IBM No IBM systems + [44]HP-C 2012 HP No HP systems + [45]AOCC 2017 AMD Yes AMD systems + + Beyond this, there are several other compilers that were not used by a + significant number of users and originated from several sources like: + * University research projects + * Backed by companies but failed to get users + * Experimental projects by a small group of developers + +Why did some compilers go out of use? + + One notable example is PCCM. It was widely used at a time as a general + compiler but with the entry of better compilers like GCC, users moved + from it. + + Sometimes, backing companies are dissolved which results in downfall of + the compilers like PathScale. Another example is CodeWarrior compiler + which was mainly for Motorolla devices and due to its closure, this + compiler went out of use. + + For some the focus area went out of use. QuickC by Microsoft was for + DOS and as Microsoft went on to develop better Operating System, they + abandoned QuickC and developed better compilers for the new Operating + Systems. + +Why we need multiple compilers? + + We need multiple compilers because: + * Instruction set that is optimized for a particular hardware systerm + varies. + * Operating systems plays to significant role in execution. + + Hence, a compiler can be optimized for: + * a particular Hardware system + * a particular Operating System + * Particular system load like distributed, real time and others. + + For example: ICC by Intel is optimized for Intel Systems while AOCC is + optimized for AMD systems. Other compilers like GCC focuses on general + optimizations for hardware features which are fairly standard. + + ACK compiler which came out in 1980 was optimised for OpenBSD operating + system. Similarly, other compilers focus on different operating + systems. + + With this, you have a good idea of how compilers evolved over the years + and how the focus of each compiler differ. +
