[comp.sys.mac.programmer] MPW 3.0b1 C++

I just received my MPW 3.0b1 upgrade package.  I've got a question
concerning C++.

In the manual for the Shell it states that the new C compiler
supports C++, and a the tool "CFront" and script "CPlus" provide this
support.  In addition CFront is documented in the Command Reference (but
CPlus is not).  Unfortunately my software didn't come with either CFront, nor
CPlus.

So what's the deal: is C++ part of MPW 3.0b1?  If not, when can we
expect it?

Thanks for the info,

As I understand it Apple cannot ship C++ until the final version is completely
ready. My guess is we won't see C++ until MPW 3.0 is out of the beta stages.
But then again, what do I know?
