I'm looking for an implementation of the AT&T task library for GNU C++. Has anybody done it? I got the AT&T library to compile (only minor changes as I remember) using GNU C++ 1.20. However, no sample programs would run. The mess seems to be in task::task. Second question: Is the AT&T task library proprietary? There are no Copyright notices in the source.

Read the licence agreement that you (or somebody associated with your institution) had to sign to get it. Copyright notices are needed (more or less) (in the US) only in things that are published for the whole world to see; things that you can see only if you sign an agreement are a different matter entirely. -- NASA is to spaceflight as | Henry Spencer @ U of Toronto Zoology the Post Office is to mail. | {ihnp4,decvax,uunet!mnetor}!utzoo!henry
