Alan,
 
I'll play devil's advocate because C++ isn't my favorite language either.
However, are these that folks find wrong with C++ only wrong from an MPW Pascal
perspective (e.g., virtual)?  I'm not trying to upset anyone but maybe things
in C++ make sense from a C++ standpoint.  I also think, however, that I would
like to see some additional capabilities in the C++ language specifications
such as run-time type identification.  I hear that this has been considered by
the ANSI committee but don't know what decision they have made about it.  As
far the MPW C++ implementation, I'd like to see exception handling and
templates.
 
Regards,
