[comp.lang.c++] Good, substantial example programs

dml@esl.com (Denis Lynch) (10/07/89)

I am involved in a substantial project which has decided to use C++.
In another life I am involved in using NeXT computers. One of the biggest
differences I have found between the NeXT Objective C environment and the
Sun C++ environment is the presence of substantial, high-quality code samples.
In particular, NeXT provides a MacDraw like application called Draw, which
does all the things a good NeXT app should do, in about 8700 lines.

In other lives, I have benefitted substantially from the online source code
in Lisp and Smalltalk environments.

Which brings me to the question: do any of you know where I could get my hands
on some good, substantial samples of "how to do C++ right"? I would appreciate
any pointers, and it isn't even necessary that the samples be free (notice
the .com at the end of my address).

Thanks for thinking about this!
