We've just installed G++, a public-domain version of C++ which has the distinction (I believe) of being the only C++ that compiles into native code (not C). To run G++ you must run the Free Software Foundation's higher performance C compiler "gcc" (FSF's YACC replacement "bison" also helps, but isn't required. I haven't tested these extensively, but the test suite seems to work fine. gcc, g++ and the g++ library are available in separate files from the Free Software Foundation: ftp: prep.ai.mit.edu Free Software Foundation 675 Mass Ave Cambridge, MA 02139 (I'm not sure whether g++ is available on tape yet).
