It is an abstract data type facility for C, using the Interface Definition Language developed here at C-MU. IDL is the basis of all Tartan Labs compilers; it is way of specifying abstract data types so that programs written in different languages can communicate with each other. I didn't finish all the translator phases, but they should have done so since I left the place. Since it was developed on a machine that had only an educational license, they have to send you a copy if you ask. If you are interested, write to mcnc!unc!snodgrass. -=- Tim Maroney, Carnegie-Mellon University Computation Center ARPA: Tim.Maroney@CMU-CS-K uucp: seismo!cmu-cs-k!tim CompuServe: 74176,1360 audio: shout "Hey, Tim!"
