ABSTRACT:
A method of cross-compiling computer programs includes the step of extracting constants from an inheriting computer program written in a first computer language. The extracted constants refer to a generating computer program written in a second computer language. A new program in the second computer language is then created using the constants. The new program is then compiled for a target computer to ascertain compiled constant values. The compiled constant values are then substituted into the inheriting computer program to produce a final inheriting computer program.
