Subject: Best compiler?

Author: Dave Kuntzsch

Well, I've been hanging around here for some time now and have decided to
convert and continue developing a program written in assembler many years ago
for a Z80 cpu. I'm ready to pop for a C or C++ compiler and believe either the
MS or Intel versions would probably be best. My criteria are ease of use,
efficiency of compiled code, development tools, and vendor update support. I
expect that my processor will always be Intel based, but I would like to have
the option to optimize for processor manufacturer and family. I currently have
no experience with C or C++, but do in several other languages. One other
question: Do I need a separate assembler to handle inline assembly code with
these compilers? Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.
