I'm a bit confused by your comment since to use Lattice C++, you need Lattice C and if you've done that, you should have CPR (I have heard from various source that CPR won't work with Lattice C++ anyway -- personally, I'm not sure how that can be but that's what I've been told. > I haven't heard of another C++ compiler.

I think a few things need to be mentioned here: Lattice C++ is an old product (4 years??) that wasn't even developed/ported by Lattice/SAS and has not been upgraded in about that long as well. So even if there was a bug list, it probably wouldn't get you too far. Re Aztec/lattice link compatibility: even at the C level this is bext avoided and should be considered in general not possible. - Greg -- Comeau Computing, 91-34 120th Street, Richmond Hill, NY, 11418 Producers of Comeau C++ Here:attmail.com!csanta!comeau / BIX:comeau / CIS:72331,3421 Voice:718-945-0009 / Fax:718-441-2310
