C++ has now become a mainstream systems programminglanguage and is increasingly being used to implement free softwarepackages. C++ underwent a lengthy standardization process and wasratified as an ISO standard in 1998.</P><P>The first specification of C++ was available in a book titled `TheAnnotated C++ Reference Manual' by Stroustrup and Ellis, also known asthe `ARM'. Since this initial specification, C++ has developed insome areas. These developments will be discussed in <A HREF="autobook_136.html#SEC136">16.2 Changeable C++</A>.</P><P>The first C++ compiler, known as <EM>cfront</EM>, was produced byStroustrup at AT&T. Because of its strong ties to C and because C issuch a general purpose systems language, cfront consisted of atranslator from C++ to C. After translation, an existing C compiler wasused to compile the intermediate C code down to machine code for almostany machine you care to mention. C++ permits overloadedfunctions--that is, functions with the same name but different argumentlists, so cfront implemented a <EM>name mangling</EM> algorithm(see section <A HREF="autobook_152.html#SEC152">16.3.2 Name Mangling</A>) to give each function a unique name in thelinker's symbol table.</P><P>In 1989, the first true C++ compiler, G++, was written by MichaelTiemann of Cygnus Support. G++ mostly consisted of a new front-end tothe GCC portable compiler, so G++ was able to produce code for mostof the targets that GCC already supported.</P><P>In the years following, a number of new C++ compilers were produced.Unfortunately many were unable to keep pace with the development of thelanguage being undertaken by the standards committee. This divergenceof implementations is the fundamental cause of non-portable C++programs.</P><P><A NAME="Changeable C++"></A></TR></TABLE><BR> <FONT SIZE="-1">This document was generatedby <I>Gary V.
