The GNU leaping out of the egg - a pun on GCC's EGCS history

The GNU Compiler Collection (usually shortened to GCC) is a set of programming language compilers produced by the GNU ව්‍යාපෘතිය. It is නිදහස් මෘදුකාංග distributed by the නිදහස් මෘදුකාංග පදනම (FSF) under the GNU GPL and GNU LGPL, and is a key component of the GNU toolchain. It is the standard compiler for the free software Unix-like මෙහෙයුම් පද්ධති, and certain proprietary operating systems derived from them such as Mac OS X. Originally named the GNU C Compiler, because it only handled the C programming language, GCC was later extended to compile C++, Java, Fortran, and Ada among others. GCC was written by Richard Stallman in 1987 as the compiler for the GNU Project, in order to have a compiler available that was නිදහස් මෘදුකාංග. Its development was closely shepherded by the නිදහස් මෘදුකාංග පදනම. In 1997, a group of developers, dissatisfied with the slow pace and closed nature of official GCC development, formed a project called EGCS (Experimental/Enhanced GNU Compiler System), which merged several experimental forks into a single project forked from GCC. EGCS development subsequently proved sufficiently more vital than GCC development, and EGCS was eventually "blessed" as the official version of GCC in April 1999. (More...)
