General information

The OSDK is a complete cross-development system allowing you to create software for the Oric range of computers 1.

If you are interested in developing your programs for other 6502 based machines than the Oric, you should check cc65. You are still reading, so I assume that you are still interested in the OSDK. Good.

System requirements

In order to use the OSDK, you need a configuration that matches these minimum requirements:

	Windows (95 or higher) 166 mhz processor 32 MB of memory 5 MB of free disk space
	Linux (any distribution) Wine 2 200 mhz processor 32 MB of memory 5 MB of free disk space

Download

You can download the current version of the OSDK here:

Get the Oric SDK for windows - Wine compatible (2574 kb)
(A detailed log of the changes, and previous versions are available on the change history page)

By downloading the OSDK, you actually get a lot more than only a C cross-compiler for the Oric:

• An ANSI C Compiler (LCC)
• A powerful 6502 cross-assembler (XA)
• A BASIC converter
• A linker
• A set of library functions
• A map-file analyzer
• A file packer (FilePack)
• A picture converter (PictConv)
• Some tools to help you create virtual and real tapes and disks
• A ready to use Oric emulator and debugger (Euphoric)
• A number of sample programs written in C, Assembler and BASIC, with comments.
