Hi Robert, free version, Limited demo version or you plan to buy one?

GCC is a c++ version but still has issue on c++.

IAR is a C++ but is expensive

CCS appear also as a C++ compiler and is more cheap

Other minor brand exists but these 3 compiler spread over majority of projects.

Rowley also is a C++ compatible with the two and Linux hosted On win only I used for a long time the quadravox compiler.

Regards

Roberto

Which ones? However, using C++ (the object-oriented part) usually does more harm then being useful on a microcontroller.
I use mspgcc since the beginning.
The older 3.x and 4.x verisons, however, won't work with the USB FETs (only the parallel FETs are directly supported) and do not support flash above 64k.
The current uniarch version just starts supporting large data and large code model.
