[comp.lang.c++] Wanted: latest c++ features

u5565522@ucsvc.unimelb.edu.au (David Clunie) (11/05/88)

Does any one know of any document that describes the differences between the C++
book in its current edition, and the language accepted by the current version of
cfront. Alternatively, would anyone care to post such a summary ?

The reason I ask is that I don't have access to a version of cfront, and am
interested in adapting the C compiler that I am currently writing to support
C++ as well/instead. The closest thing I have to C++ is Zortech (when it
arrives) and I doubt if this is state of the art in C++ definition.

I am also interested in a comment I read somewhere here that g++ doesn't
support certain syntactic constructs that require infinite lookahead by
the lexical analyzer. Does anyone know anymore about this, or for that matter
would anyone care to summarize the differences between cfront and g++.

Thanks   ... regards ...   David
