Announcing a mailing list for discussion
of the Eiffel object-oriented language
and environment.
In case you haven't heard of Eiffel, it is a strongly-typed,
Object-oriented general purpose programming language with
emphasis on compile-time checking. It has generic types
(often caled parameterized types), multiple inheritance,
incrementally-garbage-collected automatic storage, and
exception handling. Eiffel is a recent design, not an
extension of any previous language. It is described in
this book:
Object-oriented Software Construction
by Bertrand Meyer

International Series in Computer Science
ISBN 0-13-629049-3 hardcover
