[comp.lang.c++] c++ for the mac

ross@unc.cs.unc.edu (Judy Ross) (02/02/89)

    I am currently in search of c++ for the Macintosh.  I have heard that 
one product is available from OASYS.  Has anyone had any experience with
their c++ or with their company in general that can help us decide 
whether or not we should go for their product?

Thanks,
Judy Ross

Apple is working on a version of C++ that runs under the Macintosh
Programmer's Workshop (MPW). It is currently undergoing some
limited alpha testing. Beta versions will be available from
APDA sometime within the next 1-2 months.

I believe that OASYS's C++ only runs under Apple's UNIX system.
It is a vanilla C++, without any of the Mac extensions that
our C++ will have (support for SANE floating point, ability to
call pascal routines, etc).
