Welcome to Open Watcom v2!

For information about how to build Open Watcom from source see the Build file.

Overview

This project is a friendly fork of Open Watcom. The primary purpose of this fork is to forward development on 64 bit support in the Open Watcom tools. We are interested in both creating tools that are themselves 64 bit executables and also that can generate and manipulate 64 bit code. However, all reasonable contributions intended to improve or extend Open Watcom are also welcome.

We owe a debt of thanks for all the work done on Open Watcom over the years by contributors too numerous to name here. Without their efforts Open Watcom would not be where it is today. We hope to continue developing and improving Open Watcom in the same tradition.

This project uses automated build infrastructure of GitHub and use GitHub Workflow to control build process. New build is started after each change in OW Git repository. It is build by Github Actions.

One per day if any change OW Current Build Release is created. It contains appropriate sources, all installers and full OW build snapshot for download.

One per month releases (if any change) is stored on Github OW Monthly Release

Older Binary installers of this version of Open Watcom can be downloaded from SourceForge.

Bug reports, enhancement requests, and related discussion should be done on the GitHub site issues list.

Static code analysis is done by Coverity Scan.
