[Continued] Comeau C++ 3.0 will be the only version of C++ supporting templates classes and template function on a number of platforms. Templates, descriptions of families of common functionality, allow developers to write a generic description once. Templates also reduce the amount of code developers need to write. Comeau Computing also announced its intent to provide support for numerous back-end C compilers and additional ports of Comeau C++ 3.0. "Comeau C++ was the first to support C++ 2.0 and for over a year was the only vendor to support the C++ 2.1 specification. Continuing in this tradition, Comeau's leadership role and commitment to C++ and object-oriented programming and technology is upheld with our support of templates and other post-2.1 C++ features," said Comeau.
