Lines: 32 Hi, My name is Pat. I am new to this conference. I work for a company that writes Electronic Design Automation software. Many of us will be taking a c++ class in June. We need to purchase a c++ compiler. I have read all the c++ news that is on this machine, and now I have some questions. 1) What is cfront? 2) What is Eiffel? 3) What are flex and bison? 4) We have an Apollo/Sun network. Does any one have a reccomendation for what we should use in this environment? 5) What compilers are available/platform/price/support? 6) You just port the AT&T code to your platform???? 7) Rumors in EE times say that 2.0 is a native compiler/debugger; comments. 8) is g++ different than c++ Please feel free to mail to me directly. ----------------------------------------------------------- Gregory Pat Scandalis ...!{decwrl|sun}!teraida!gps Teradyne EDA ----------------------------------------------------------- -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Gregory Pat Scandalis ...!{decwrl|sun}!teraida!gps Teradyne EDA -----------------------------------------------------------
