The classes distributed with the UNIX(R) System V C++ Language System, Release 2.0, according to the Release Notes, are: o Ostream, the old Release 1.1 C++ I/O library o complex, the complex arithmetic library o generic, a common error-reporting function and generic stack and vector types o new, which handles run-time memory management o static, which handles invocation of static constructors and destructors o stream, the C++ iostream library o task, the C++ task library. This package is machine dependent and is currently implemented only on the AT&T 3B line and 6386 WGS computers, the DEC VAX line of computers, and SUN workstations using the Motorola 68000 processor family (though Chapter 2 of the C++ Language System Library Manual provides information on how to port it to other machines) complex, stream, and task are described in great detail in the Library Manual. I didn't even know generic existed until I typed the above in from the Release Notes. Please note that the above is what AT&T sells. If you have a C++ product that claims to be compatible with 2.0, but doesn't have all of the above libraries, it's your vendor's fault, not AT&T's. If you want more information, you should order the appropriate C++ Language System Release 2.0 documents: Reference Manual: $25, select code 307-146 Library Manual: $35, select code 307-145 Selected Readings: $30, select code 307-144 Release Notes: $20, select code 307-090 To order call the AT&T Customer Information Center, 1-800-432-6600, or 317-352-8557 (according to an earlier posting by Dr. Stroustrup; I have it as 317-352-8504). (If you're in AT&T, you can get these manuals the same place you get other fine C++ products, rather than the CIC.) > Gary Wright, ...!uunet!hsi!wright, wright@hsi.com Paul S. R.
