Hi, Has anybody out there had any experiences with C++ with A/UX. I am interested in obtaining an inexpensive (aka *cheap*) C++ system. I still have gcc-1.37 cc sitting on the disk after the X11R4 build. Does the Stallman c++ "work" with A/UX? Is it "compatible" with AT&T 2.0?

Other than that, we've noticed some odd situations which appear to be bugs in 1.36.1, but I don't know for sure. Getting G++ to run wasn't terribly easy, but at least Michael Tiemann appears to be making an effort to support SysV-based systems now, so I hope that it will get easier in the future. If someone wants to try the version of G++ that I have running, send email directly to me (davism@vtopus.cs.vt.edu) and I'll see about putting it up for anonymous ftp. Mat Davis

I keep wanting to do a port (I did the gcc port) but don't have time.

Hi,
Has anybody out there had any experiences with C++ with A/UX. I am
interested in obtaining an inexpensive (aka *cheap*) C++ system. I
still have gcc-1.37 cc sitting on the disk after the X11R4 build.
Does the Stallman c++ "work" with A/UX? Is it "compatible" with
AT&T 2.0?
g++ is not fully C++ 2.0 compatible; so far it isn't ported to the A/UX
environment.
Oasys sells Glockenspiel C++ for A/UX, I have no experience with that
product so I don't know if the latest port is 2.0. My own experience of
C++ on A/UX is the AT&T 1.2 version that compiled and worked well under
A/UX 1.1.
