Yes, the Apex RCI (Remote Compilation Integrator) is
powerful enough at incorporating the idiosyncracies
of other compilers that the choice of development
compiler is orthogonal to the choice of target compiler(s).

With Apex, you can support as many target compilers as
needed with a single development environment. This frees
the development group to pick target compilers based on
target needs (performance, customer preference, etc.).
