- I know Borland C++ 3.1 for DOS, GNU C++ (DJGPP) for DOS and IBM CSet++ for OS/2.
-
- Borland and GNU support Templates, but none of them supports nested classes in
- templates (eg. A class Node inside a template class List) in a way that a member-
- function of the outer (template) class may return a value of the type of the inner
- class. This is rather confusing, since the Sun/OS C++ compiler supports this.
-
- IBM CSet supports C++ exception handling as well, but is the slowest compiler I've
- ever seen.
-
- If you want to write code for OS/2 and/or Windows, maybe Visual Age (IBM) is a good
- bet. The OS/2 Version is already published, the Windows version will be soon.
