I am a consultant to Lucent, where he works (different site though) and believe me, its a political thing. Perhaps Lucent, being formerly Bell Labs, having invented C and C++, is jealous of anyone giving away a compiler. I do not know, but it seems to be an insurmountable obstacle to be allowed to use Gnu compilers to compile code that gets shipped to customers. I really have not heard a good reason, but I know ther is great resistance there. :-( -- -------- "And there came a writing to him from Elijah" [2Ch 21:12] -------- Robert Jay Brown III rj@eli.elilabs.com http://www.elilabs.com 1 847 705-0424 Elijah Laboratories Inc.; 37 South Greenwood Avenue; Palatine, IL 60067-6328 ----- M o d e l i n g t h e M e t h o d s o f t h e M i n d ------
