I don't know about the date, but there is a C++ compiler in development.
This is a port of the standard AT&T CFront, with some extensions to support
the Mac. (Apple has defined a subset of C++, which would be the minimal
feature set necessary to use MacApp; our compiler, however, will implement
the full C++.)
MacApp is not being ported to C++. C++ is being made compatible with Object
Pascal. C++ users will link with a pre-compiled version of MacApp. You
will also be able to use C++ to subclass classes written in Object Pascal,
and vice versa.
