I have been considering using C++ to write some generic packages that I can use in my system. My question is what price does one pay for using C++? In particular, what runtime support is required by most modern C++ implementations? Any? If so, how can I minimize this? Charles Fineman Carnegie-Mellon University cef@h.cs.cmu.edu (via seismo)
