We just got c++ on our 4*BSD system. I have tried several programs and I found some problems / questions. 1. The c++ distibution contains no header files for BSD systems. Are there people out there using c++ on BSD systems ? If anyone has created several header files for BSD systems I am interested in a copy of them. Mail them to me, or send them to the net. It would save me (and others) a lot of work. 2. Has anyone created usefull c++ libraries. They could be very usefull to use and to see a lot of example programs. 3. A question to Bjarne Stroustrup. Sometimes it is usefull to use a debugger like sdb or dbx, e.g. for analysing core dumps. With c++ this is a problem. The c++ compiler generates different C names for procedures, variables and stuctures. I guess there is a methodological way in which they are named. Is there a document describing the relation between c++ names and the corresponding C names? This will make it possible to use sdb or dbx.
