From: J.Pearce@uk.ac.ucl.cs I am currently interested in getting a c++ compiler/translator for my MacIIci. I am considering getting AUX so I was wondering about g++, but I am not quite sure whether it has been successfully ported to AUX - any information would be gratefully appreciated. The other alternative is MPW c++, can someone answer the following questions :- 1. Which version of MPW c++ is shipping, and which version of the AT&T "standard" does it claim ? 2. I had heard reports of previous version of MPW c++ that the memory management was not totally stable/efficient - what is the status of the current version and are there any other bugs/limitations ? 3. Is it AUX 2.0 compatible and what level of integration does it offer - can you use anything direct from a AUX command line ? Would it be possible to use MPW c++ to generate c code for the native AUX c compiler ?

Shipping: MPW 3.1 final AT&T Version: 2.0 I haven't heard (or seen the release notes) of any problems with either C++ final or the beta 4 release. I don't know about AU/X useage/integration.
