[comp.sys.m88k] Time to port cfront?

tom@ssd.csd.harris.com (Tom Horsley) (11/20/90)

This is really two questions:

   1) How long would people guess it would take to get AT&T cfront working
      from the day the tape shows up to the day you can compile C++
      programs. (Assume a reasonably competent programmer, but one who has
      never done a cfront port before).

   2) Has anyone heard of any effort to provide a generic 88k BCS compliant
      shrink wrapped port of AT&T C++?

If the answer to the 2nd question is 'yes', the first question may be moot...

I am interested only in the latest and greatest version (2.1?) which I
suspect may be somewhat more complex to port since it supports stuff like
multiple inheritance.
