Does anyone know if a multiple inheritance version of c++ is in the works? I heard a rumor some time ago that AT&T had an in-house version running. Any release date on the system or the language specification? Brian.

Multiple inheritance has been available at a few sites inside AT&T for some time now. You can read all about it in the proceedings of the USENIX C++ workshop, about to be published. Of course I won't discuss release dates.

At the C++ workshop I believe this had the status of "official" rumor, expected release early 1988. There are write-ups floating around explaining how this all is going to work. Hopefully your request will provoke a definitive response. I know I'M sure waiting around with baited breath !!!

P.S. Get a copy of the workshop proceedings. I think you will find it will contain a fair amount of material as to where C++ is going.
