[comp.os.vms] C++ for VMS?

pengo@tmpmbx.UUCP (Hans H. Huebner) (02/13/88)

Hello,

I'm programming on VMS in C at the moment, but I realized that the interaction
between VMS and C is poor (descriptors and values passed by reference are a
PAIN in C, not to speak of the missing quad datatype). So I'm looking for an
alternative, and C++ seems to be a good choice.
Does anyone know of a usable C++ implementation on VMS ?

	Thanks,
		Hans

Does anybody know of an implementation of C++ for VMS?  My group
(at my company, Valid Logic, not my "Organization") is interested
in C++ as a project development language, but we have to answer the
management question

	But does it run on VMS?

Of course, free perfect code is best, but varying values of "free" and
"perfect" are fine, too.

Any and all pointers, suggestions, &c. appreciated.
