Port C++ to Unix and Linux | Customers
For more than a decade, Mainsoft has helped many of the world's largest ISVs develop C++ applications on Windows® using Visual Studio and deploy them on multiple UNIX and Linux operating systems.
Mainsoft ported Magic Enterprise Edition, with more than million lines of C++ code to Linux in just 90 days.

Mainsoft cut cost, complexity and beat competitor in side-by-side comparison to port Mentor Graphics's native Windows design suite to UNIX. Mainsoft's single source code solution dramatically shortened the development cycle for Mentor Graphics. And, with only one code stream to manage, future development time and effort will be significantly reduced, too.

Mainsoft enables Telelogic to meet urgent customer demand for Solaris and HP-UX products. Mainsoft for UNIX and Linux enabled Telelogic to create a high-quality UNIX build of the new software from a Windows development environment. With only a few UNIX developers in-house, the Windows version was quickly ported to the first UNIX platform without additional resources - saving valuable time resources and money when the pressure was on to deliver DOORS/ERS 5.0 across multiple platforms.
