"Write Portable Code" explains how to:
avoid common portability mistakes when starting out a new project, thereby saving time when a port must occur
re-factor existing, non-portable code so that it can be easily transplanted to new platforms
find bugs masked by platform specific behaviors
Programmers who avoid becoming married to a specific development environment or target platform greatly expand the target market for their software products. Whether you design cross-platform software from the ground up or have to move large amounts of code from one platform to another, the information contained in "Write Portable Code" will help you achieve your goals and grow as a programmer.
