[comp.lang.c++] GNU C++ 1.20.0 is now on prep.ai.mit.edu

tiemann@MCC.COM (Michael Tiemann) (04/26/88)

GNU C++ 1.20.0 has made it to prep.ai.mit.edu.  Due to the large
number of changes made between versions 1.18.1 and 1.20.0, I am not
putting up diffs.  To accompany the release of GNU C++ 1.20.0,
GDB+ 2.5.0 has also been released today.

First, the good news:  GNU C++ 1.20.0 has successfully compiled Keith
Gorlen's OOPS library, and passes all tests except for dep.c (which
does not compile).  It also compiles and correctly executes one of the
three test programs in the vector library.  In addition, it compiles
all of Mark Linton's InterViews package (a C++ interface to the X
Window system) except for one file in a demo program.  I will be
working on these problems, which (fortunately) are related.

Sadly, it does not perform these feats on these software packages as
they come ``out of the box''.  However, if there is sufficient
interest, I will make diffs available for these packages (which are
also free software).

Thank you for your continued support.  Having (essentially) compiled
these libraries, it now looks like GNU C++ has made it over its most
difficult hurdle.  Keep those reports and comments coming, they are
extremely helpful.

Cheers!

	I'd certainly like to see the diff to the InterViews programs.
I don't currently have OOPS, but may get it in the future if I get interested
enough.  But, by all means put diffs for InterViews out.

You'll find g++ 1.20.0, diffs from 1.20.0 to 1.20.1, and gdb+ 2.5.0 in
the usual places on osu-cis for UUCP access.  Get the file
osu-cis!~/GNU.how-to-get for details.
