Is this Survey95?). Touche........ Well, it may be survey in limbo until I confirm that the email address I heard Interex tell me to use really works. So as before, if any of y'all are still having problems, send survey to me if you want, and I will bulk forward to Interex when address problems get straightened out (it may already be fixed; I've got no time to check right now). >I would find symbolic debug support (xdb) more than welcome, above and >beyond some of the other things in the survey (KSAM/Image objects, for >example). More good ideas; especially as you suggest sym debug support. But I sort of hesitate to try and put out still another revision of the survey (even if I had time right now); afraid people will come down with survey aversion syndrome. So for now I will try a compromise suggestion: If you have other specifics like the above, put them in the last item in the survey: "10) Additional comments/concerns on this subject:" HP has in fact said they will look closely at # 10 for suggestions on other required features. Jeff, if you feel like adding some specific words to yours, send me a paragraph 10 and I will paste in, or just send the whole thing with updated para 10, and I will forward your rev. BTW, now that we all know that HP-UX C++ is in fact an adaptation of ATT CFRONT, will have some more to say on that subject later. But can't do it now. Will just add that I also got independent confirmation from a different source inside HP that said (and I quote exactly): "HP-UX C++ is, in fact, derived from ATT CFRONT v3.0."
