Re: C++ Book
The book from Bjarne Stroustrup (The C++ Programming Language) is state of the art if you are not focused on a special subject.

As far as using C++ on unix goes, I would recommend learning some qt, and looking at all the fine applications available in the ports tree, a lot of stuff based on qt or kde is fairly decent, and highly interesting as far as modern C++ style goes... really? i've barely touched qt, but i'd say its use of macros and stringify is closer to horrifying. it may be interesting, but imo it's not a good way to learn c++, especially since it throws away the benefits of static type checking. now, if you want objective c, you know where to find it...
C++ Book
Good Day, My apologies if this question has been asked a million times before. I want to know if there is a good book out there to learn C++ on UNIX/Linux. I have browsed Amazon but almost all the books available there are either Windows based or they have very bad reviews. I have been doing LAN web applications with PHP/Javascript/MySQL/Perl for some time now, but now I need to get C++ under my belt for a particular client. The reason I post here on misc@openbsd.org is because you guys normally give a clear and objective view. (And because you guys are more intelligent :) ). Thank You Danny
