If this is the EC++ developed by Glauco Masotti
at the University of Southern California, it's
no longer supported or available here.

This program basically did text-substitution on C++
files to do pre- and post- conditions and exception
handling, used a GNU C++ utility to do polymorphism,
and used Boem's garbage collector.  It requires GNU
C++ (or a compiler with the typeof() operator) to do
generic functions; and the exception-handling scheme
wasn't the same as the one described in the ARM.  If
you really want to check it out, send me e-mail and
I'll see if I can find out where Glauco is now and if
he's still maintaining the program.
