Archive-name: g++/v1.37.2- Original-posting-by: cygint!tiemann@LABREA.STANFORD.EDU (Michael Tiemann) Original-subject: G++ version 1.37.2 (almost) Archive-site: labrea.stanford.edu [36.8.0.47] Archive-directory: /pub/gnu Reposted-by: emv@math.lsa.umich.edu (Edward Vielmetti) I have put a new copy of g++.xtar.Z and gdb.xtar.Z on labrea.stanford.edu in ~ftp/pub/gnu. The new GNU C++ uses about 50% less space for class debug information, partially achieved by changing the way GDB reads the extended dbx output. Therefore you have to use the GDB from gdb.xtar.Z to play with g++.xtar.Z. If you don't want to switch GDBs just now, get an old copy of dbxout.c for GNU C++. Otherwise, there are some neat new features in the compiler that support modular compilation. You can read g++.texinfo to find out about #pragma interface. The new version of libg++ will be replete with examples of how to use it. I merged Dirk Grunwald's DECstation support, Will Athanasiou's MASSCOMP support, somebody else's System V support for sdbout.c, and support for Steve Reiss's FIELD programming environment. As usual, I tried to get most of the bugs out. For the ones I missed, let me know. For the ones I got, send money. Michael
