That's part of what Steve was saying. And my question remains about gcc, either there is or there isn't a port for Plan 9, but it seems clear to me that there is one, so why do people keep saying not? Or is it that for some reason on the C language part is operational? >I'm asking because C++ is very popular language, it have some nice >benefits (is that word right here?), and there are many software that >was developed on it. >Of course C++ could be very ugly in some situations, but Object >Oriented model is very powerful and C++ is "standard" language for it. >So modern operation system with out C++ support is something...unusual >(i don't know right word in english, that describe what i want to say >:D)? Every language has problems. Anyway, there should be no inherent technical gotchas with C++ and Plan 9 that I know of, that is, as compared with any other feasible/reasonable/etc OS. >2008/2/4, Uriel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: >> And when you thought it couldn't get better, from the top of >> http://www.comeaucomputing.com >> >> "Bursting With So Much Language Support It Hurts!" >> >> Most fortune-worthy line ever. >> >> uriel >> >> On Feb 4, 2008 12:52 PM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> > > because something had to be used to compile Plan 9 itself, etc and I >> > figure it's not being done as a cross-compiler. >> > >> > I'm sorry my new friend but I think that's the funniest 9fans post I've >> > ever seen, how ... but .... surely you ..... aw come on >> > >> > To redeem myself I shall offer this link to one of the other C compilers >> > that exist in the world : >> > http://plan9.bell-labs.com/magic/man2html/1/2c >> > >> > >> -- Greg Comeau / 4.3.9 with C++0xisms now in beta!
