Hello,

	We are working on a project involving MacApp 2.0, C++ 3.1b1
and A/ROSE ( on a card from GreenSpring Computers).

	We would like to write the A/ROSE executable in C++. So far we
have had only limited succes.  We were able to succesfully execute the
following:

	a) a standard C program compiled with the C++ compiler.
	b) a C++ program without any virtual functions

	We were NOT able to get a C++ program with virtual functions
to execute properly. When the virtual function got called, the card
crashed.

	What piece of code is responsible for the initialization and
maintenance of the virtual functions tables ?  We suspect that by
linking the libraries from GreenSpring, some of that code is not 
executed.
 
	 Has anybody written stand alone code in C++ that uses
 virtual functions ?
