Hi All,
 
I know I brought this up before, but there is no harm in keep trying I guess.
I just hope HP will give in some time. The question:
 
        "Why is there no C++ compiler planned/available on MPE/iX ?"
 
At Uniface we port to many platforms. MPE is the only one on which no C++
compiler is available, or even planned. Yes, even on IBM MVS there is one !
This is actually beginning to hold up our natural migration path from C to C++.
 
If HP is totally committed to open up the HP3000 for (UNIX) apps they should
provide a C++ environment. If not the HP3000 will miss out on a certain number
of object-oriented applications and this problem may well aggravate in the next few
years to come.
 
Since HP considers Uniface a stregic product in the opening of the HP3000, I hope
our argument will put some pressure on them. I know lots of HP people are
participating in this list. Anyone for comment ? George Stachnik ???
 
Thanks !
