Editing LCC (compiler) (section)

==Projects incorporating LCC==

===Quake 3  ===

[[id Software]]'s [[id Tech 3]] [[game engine|engine]] relies on a modified version of LCC to compile the source code of each game module or third-party [[mod (video gaming)|mod]] into [[bytecode]] targeting its [[virtual machine]].<ref>{{cite web|title=John Carmack's .plan file, 24 July, 1999 |url=http://www.team5150.com/~andrew/carmack/johnc_plan_1999.html#d19990724 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080512173031/http://www.team5150.com/~andrew/carmack/johnc_plan_1999.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=2008-05-12 }}</ref> This means that modules are oblivious to the system beyond the [[system call]]s and limited [[file system]] scope offered by the engine, which is intended to reduce the threat posed by malicious mod authors. Another consideration is that games and mods written for the engine are [[software portability|portable]] without recompilation; only the virtual machine needs to be [[porting|ported]] to new platforms in order to execute the modules.

===lcc-win===

'''lcc-win32''' is an [[integrated development environment]] package for [[Microsoft Windows]] which includes a [[software fork|fork]] of LCC. An [[amd64]] counterpart named lcc-win64 exists, which has been available since April 15, 2012.<ref>[https://lcc-win32.services.net/ lcc-win: A Compiler system for Windows]</ref>

===Pelles C===

[[Pelles C]]'s compiler is a heavily modified version of LCC providing [[C11 (C standard revision)|C11]] as well as  [[C17 (C standard revision)|C17]] support, amd64 support, additional optimisation techniques such as [[inline expansion]]<ref>[http://www.smorgasbordet.com/pellesc/ Pelles C Overview]</ref> and an [[Integrated development environment|IDE]].

===MathWorks===
For 32-bit Windows machines, Lcc is used as a default if no other compiler is installed for [[MathWorks]] [[MATLAB]] and related products.<ref name="buildmex">{{cite web |url=http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_external/building-mex-files.html |title=Build MEX-Files |access-date=6 November 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120914063120/http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_external/building-mex-files.html |archive-date=14 September 2012 }}</ref>
