Message-ID: Date: 19 Nov 90 19:50:32 GMT Sender: news@travis.csd.harris.com Organization: Harris Computer Systems Division Lines: 23 This is really two questions: 1) How long would people guess it would take to get AT&T cfront working from the day the tape shows up to the day you can compile C++ programs. (Assume a reasonably competent programmer, but one who has never done a cfront port before). 2) Has anyone heard of any effort to provide a generic 88k BCS compliant shrink wrapped port of AT&T C++? If the answer to the 2nd question is 'yes', the first question may be moot... I am interested only in the latest and greatest version (2.1?) which I suspect may be somewhat more complex to port since it supports stuff like multiple inheritance. -- ====================================================================== domain: tahorsley@csd.harris.com USMail: Tom Horsley uucp: ...!uunet!hcx1!tahorsley 511 Kingbird Circle Delray Beach, FL 33444 +==== Censorship is the only form of Obscenity ======================+ | (Wait, I forgot government tobacco subsidies...) | +====================================================================+
