COMEAU C++ ALLEVIATES TRANSITIONS
C++ provides a bridge for C programmers to enter object-oriented
programming and obtain other serious improvements. Comeau C++ 3.0
provides another bridge to allow C programmers access to this technology
and to increase their productivity. Comeau C++ 3.0's strong compatibility
with ANSI C and ANSI C++ is a steppingstone toward this goal. C++
programmers gain the ability to express their algorithms in a more
natural manner while still retaining the efficiency of C. Furthermore,
C programmers can move to C++ without having all their code break and
they can learn Comeau C++ in a tiered transition.
Comeau C++ is especially designed with cross platform and cross
operating system capability in mind. Consistency across implementations
is of the utmost importance. Previous versions of Comeau C++ supported
MS-DOS, all UNIX 386's, SCO UNIX 386, SCO XENIX 386, the AT&T 3B2,
AmigaDOS, AT&T UNIX PC 7300 & 3B1, the Sun-3, and the IBM RS/6000 AIX.
Comeau C++ 3.0 adds support for the Sun SPARC, and others to include
the Atari ST, UNIX SVR4, MS-Windows, and OS/2.
