Hello Rational
Judging by closeness to ANSI standards and Unix-portability
I think it is clear that gcc/g++ (2.8.1) is currently the
superior C++ compiler on Unix environments. In addition, it
comes with STL and it can work with the GDB debugger (that
has a convenient Emacs interface).
Alas, since g++-2.8.x it is almost impossible to use Purify.
I used to like Purify a lot. I owe lots of bug-fixings to
this great tool. Now it seems that one has to face a choice
between
+ g++ without Purify
+ Native compiler with Purify
For me the choice is painful but clear. That is give up Purify
and go with g++. Standard and efficient templates are too valuable.
My wish is that you would be more clear regarding your
future plans to support g++.
