I have recently stepped into the C++ world and 'am in the process of selecting an appropriate compiler/translator for VAX/VMS and IBM/mainframe. Can some knowledgeable user help me out with the following questions. I appologise for any question that may have been asked before. 1) Are there any compiler/translators available for IBM-mainframes using VM-CMS ? Any experience in porting cfront ? 2) For DEC/VAX/VMS - there seems to be only two companies (Oasys & Oregon) who have ported cfront. Oregon claims that they have a true C++ debugger whereas Oasys has a C debugger (takes care of mangled names). Which is the better one (stability etc...) in their latest release ? Any relevant information about these companies/products will be useful. Please email your replies to ......uunet!sdrc!cae19!mmgupta Thanks, Nirmalya Gupta

Oregon C++ is not a cfront port, but an independent development of a compiler which generates object code directly. A new release should be out soon. Call Oregon Software at (800) 874-8501 for more data. -- Steve Clamage, TauMetric Corp, steve@taumet.com
