From: dbfunk@ICAEN.UIOWA.EDU (David B Funk) Date: Sat, 20 Jan 1990 2:09GMT Organization: Iowa Computer Aided Engineering Network, University of Iowa Scanning through the sr10.2 release I see provisions for C++ v2.0 in the include files and debugger. Does anybody have any idea when it will be released? Dave Funk From: vasta@apollo.HP.COM (John Vasta) Date: Fri, 26 Jan 1990 22:11GMT Organization: Hewlett-Packard Company, Apollo Division; Chelmsford, MA We just announced C++ 2.0 for both Apollo and HP9000 platforms at Uniforum. It is expected to be available in May. From: speyer@joy.cad.mcc.com (Bruce Speyer) Date: Mon, 29 Jan 1990 20:31GMT Organization: MCC CAD Program, Austin, TX Thanks to John for posting the Apollo/HP C++ information. I had previously seen the 1/22/90 page#5 Unix Today announcement which told me that the product will be released in May, it is the same source on both platforms, and the price starts at $1600 and rises depending upon the platform. Thats all the information I know, can anybody supply more details? At least, Is this a translator or compiler? Bruce Speyer / MCC CAD Program WORK: [512] 338-3668 3500 W.
