The Sun C++ 2.0 product was announced on August 21 at IJCAI in Detroit. A copy of the full press announcement may be seen in the comp.newprod newsgroup (message ID <26475@mcdchg.chg.mcd.mot.com>). Here is a short summary: Sun C++ 2.0 is based on AT&T's cfront 2.0, including the standard 2.0 C++ libraries (libC/iostream, libcomplex, libtask, libOstream). It also includes a version of dbx/dbxtool that has been enhanced to support C++, as well as C++ versions of several other SunOS tools (e.g., ctags, gprof, lex, nm, rpcgen, yacc). In addition, a collection of SunOS 4.0 and Sunview header files, modified to work with C++, are provided. Sun C++ 2.0 takes advantage of SunOS's shared libraries, and supports the Network Software Environment (NSE). For details, contact the product manager: Nancy Haydt -- nancyh@sun.com -- (415)336-5704
