Good point, I was referring to them collectively, which perhaps I
shouldn't have had. I've met the C++ language in 1986, and used it more
and more, and in 1990 I started using it exclusively till 1993 (AT&T in
Unix, Borland in PC, one of the first users and beta testers of the
entire Borland suite incl. OWL. Tried Glockenspiel and MS too, but I
really have a dislike for MS suite incl MFC). I have introduced these
technologies to companies I worked for where I had influential senior
postions. I trained my teams, ond others in the company, did general
design, and parts of implementation. You are quite right that there are
significant differences bw AT&T 1.0 to 3.0 and between AT&T, Borland,
MS, and others.
Then I had to switch to Smalltalk because a new project, and I must
admit, after a few months of struggle, I am now hooked to it, not that I
think it is the best (I like Self better), but I find it more than
adequate. Again, I had looked at Smalltalk before, each time either
because of time pressure, or other reasons (among them my initial
dislike of Smalltalk syntax) I did not see the reason the switch.
Recently I had to develop propriatory encryption and compression
libraries which had to be in C++, and compatible between Unix and
Windows platforms, although I completed the system with a happy
customer, I really found C++ unworkable.
