FYI: April 5, 1988 -- Apollo Computer Inc. introduced Domain/C++, the first computer vendor-supported implementation of the C++ object-oriented programming language. C++ is based on the C language but provides additional features designed to increase programmer productivity and reduce the development time of large and small software systems. Apollo's C++ is based on AT&T's industry-standard C++ translator. Domain/C++ includes a tightly integrated C++ translator, which translates C++ into C, and the Domain/C compiler. Domain/C++ V1.2 will be available early in the third quarter, 1988. Apollo also announced plans to integrate Domain/C++ with its new Distributed Debugging Environment (DDE) in a follow-up release later this year. DDE support will let users debug using the C++ syntax for classes and objects, making the translation of C++ to C transparent to the user. Prices start at $1050 for the C++ Translator and $1600 for the C++ Translator/C compiler package. Volume discounts are available. For more information, contact your local Apollo representative.
