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 -----------------------------------------------------------

I am interested in collecting information on tools that have been proposed and/or developed for C++. If you know of any such tools, or know of published articles describing such tools, I'd appreciate it if you'd let me know about them. If there is sufficient interest, I'll post a summary to the net. Possible tools that I can think of (off the top of my head) include class browsers, class dependency graphs displayers, class hierarchy displayers, plus the normal stuff we expect for C programs, like profilers, pretty-printers, cross-referencers, etc. Thanks, Scott Meyers sdm@cs.brown.edu

We have recently decided to code a largish (~50 man years over 5 years) project (radio astronomical image processing system) in C++. We are quite interested in any tools or guidelines that might help us out. (We know about Saber C++ and the PARC product). So, any advice on places to get: o Coding standards (Indian Hills equivalent) o Indenters o Pretty printers o "Bad practices" finders (if (a=b) ...) o Documentation extractors o Any other useful tools/libraries/... would be most greatly appreciated. Please reply be email, and I will summarize when the replies stop trickling in. Thank you.
