Net.C++.Geniuses:


A simple question for y'all.  Is there an approved and well-defined 
way to deal with SVR4 machines and the AT&T C++ system which seems
to only "support" SVR3 systems.  Is SVR4 supposedly TOTALLY upward 
compatible (i.e. on an SVR4 system, shall I tell C++ that it is 
a SVR3 system) ????  I do not want to discover this the hard way 
if there is a commonly understood way of dealing with this issue.

If any of you out there have any tips/recommendations/war-stories
you'd care to throw my way, I shall be most appreciative.  I guess
my question boils down to: "what's there to be wary about when 
trying to get AT&T C++ running on an SVR4 platform" ???

many thanks!
