Does anyone have any information about the C++ tools package which
can be bought from Zortech?

Steve, best bet is to call Zortech in the US or London as appropriate since they've just released their 2.0 version. Greg Comeau Computing

A friend lent me a copy for evaluation; while I haven't had time to look at it very carefully, much less to try it out, I can at least post the contents. The chapters in the manual mention the following types of classes: bit vectors; singly linked lists; doubly linked lists; dynamic arrays; binary tree search tables; hashed search tables; packed BCD arithmetic; virtual arrays; time and date; real time clock; directory; filename; interrupt vector; critical error; string editor; date editor; text windows; and text editing. Sorry I can't say more at this point. -- Non-disclaimer: My boss and I always see eye-to-eye (every time I look in the mirror). ...!genrad!mrst!sdti!wmm

I bought it and tried to use it with Zortech C++ v1.07e. Four out of their 19 packages refused to even compile! Some that compiled did not run. I used the dynamic array package more than the others. I thought it worked fine until I discovered that constructors are not called for the elements of the array. That's not "generic" dynamic arrays. I talked to someone at Zortech. They only have one version selling, and they don't seem to have upgrades / patches available. Need I say more? Jean-Luc Brouillet brouille.stanford.edu
