We're trying to select a C++ compiler to use for development. We`re looking at either GNU's or AT&T. We want one that, in the future, is expected to be closer to an accepted standard, such as ANSI or POSIX. Does anyone have any info? Thanks in advance.

The ANSI C++ committee (X3J16) has just recently been constituted, and is not expected to submit a first draft for review for at least a year, probably more. The base document for the standard is the Annotated C++ Reference Manual by Margaret Ellis and Bjarne Stroustrup (derived from the AT&T C++ 2.1 reference manual). --- Shankar Unni.
