Re: [avr-gcc-list] Re: TinyOs avr-gcc-4 - a wrap-up

[John Regehr]

Here's how I'd sum it up:

- TinyOS is written in the nesC programming language, which is a close 
  dialect of C supporting some additional features

- At present there is only one compiler for the nesC language, and it 
  operates by translating nesC input into C

- The nesC language is designed to support easy interoperation with C 
  code, either through direct inclusion or through linking

- AVR was the original platform for TinyOS/nesC and is still an important 
  one, although several other architectures are now supported
