What Language

Not quite. The C++ compiler, of course, is written in C++. The first C++ translator was called CFront, it was originally written in C, and translated C++ sources to C, which in turn were fed to the C compiler. Same goes for the first C compiler, written in C, by intermediate translation to B (or BCPL?)

What language is used for developing OS (windows)? If X languages is used for that, what language is used for the language compiler ? If this is Y language, What language is used for Y compiler ..... ...... :confused: .....:confused: ..... :confused:
Thanks a lot

Things are even worse: C# and VB are coded in C++. Just imagine the compiler chain depth you'd get if you wrote a compiler in C#. _____________________________________________________________________________ I don't expect too much, all I want is your vote for Halbsichtigkeit.

Assembly language :~

C/C++ and Assembler. C/C++ and Assembler. C/C++ and Assembler. Not at all uncommon for programming languages to compile themselves as well as products.

Welcome to CP in your language. Post the unicode version in My CP Blog [ ^ ] now.People who don't understand how awesome Firefox is have never used CPhog[^]CPhog. The act of using CPhog (Firefox)[^] alone doesn't make Firefox cool. It opens your eyes to the possibilities and then you start looking for other things like CPhog (Firefox)[^] and your eyes are suddenly open to all sorts of useful things all through Firefox. - (Self Quote)

Hey! Yellow Card!!! His second part of his question was what compiled the language. Wouldn't it be Assembler for Assembly? "Some Assembly Required." has always meant something funny to me.

scary.... especially with the complexity of current languages. Fortran is simple, but imagine how long it would take to get a fully functional C++ compilre :omg:
