So don't expect . >Dan Weinreb Object Design, Inc. dlw@odi.com What is the extent of these differences? I don't know all of them. When I tried to compile some of libg++ once, I ran into several, and decided it would be too much work. Perhaps someone has a list. I don't know the details, and I don't know the future intentions of the g++ maintainer(s). Is it feasible to write code to run under both compilers? Yes, InterViews 2.5 is an example of a very large system that works under both Cfront 1.2 and g++. But you have to be careful. libg++ is not written "carefully", in that sense.
