Will the new Symantac C++ book support development with a symantac 5.0 C++
compiler. The book looked great at B. Dalton, but i was not sure if the
programs would compile with 5.0 thanks phil
phil,
There was no Symantec C++ 5.0 compiler. Thus, any new books targeted for
Symantec C++ would, no doubt, be limited to 6.0.
There are some books dealing with THINK C 5.0, which was a C compiler with
object-oriented extensions similar to C++. Rich Parker has one, for example.
Some of the other Macintosh C books may deal with THINK C's object-orientation
as well. (There wasn't any appreciable external change between THINK C 5.0 and
THINK C 6.0 … again, note that THINK C 6.0 is not the same compiler as
Symantec C++ 6.0.)
