[comp.sys.sgi] Object Oriented Programming Languages

jdchrist@watcgl.waterloo.edu (Dan Christensen) (06/21/89)

Can someone tell me what object oriented programming languages are
available for the Iris 4D series computers?  I have heard of C++,
but no others.  In particular, is Objective C available?

Please send replies via e-mail.  If there is any interested I will
post a summary of the responses.

I am curious what the need for object oriented language is.
If it is for teaching.  Have you looked at Tim Budd's
"Little Small Talk".  It is an environment written in 'C'
for teaching Objective programming.  I have compiled the
package on other machines (Not SGI) and have had no
problems.

Since the "University of" is in your signature I though I
should point you to:

	*A Little Smalltalk, by Timothy A. Budd
         Addison Wesley, 1987
   in better bookshops everywhere.
