[Note: Please EMAIL responses, as I don't want to add net-bandwidth
on a topic many don't care to hear, in these two newsgroups].
I'm thinking of using GNU C++. I've been using Bell Labs' 1.2 version
of cfront. The questions I have are
(1) How 'good' is Gnu C++? Does it do everything the 1.2 Bell Labs
version does? Any serious defficiencies?
(2) How easy is GNU C++ to bring up? Is it supported for the HPUX
9000/s800? [HP's RISC machine]. Does anyone have gcc working
for this machine, and could g++ be made from a gcc for the s800
machine?
(3) How good is the debugger?
(4) Will it be link compatible with system libraries?
(5) Can anyone who has used both (compilers) give me a definate answer
of either "Don't try this" or "Try this -- its great?"?
