I got an error saying "sorry, not implemented yet: label in block with destructors." This was using (embarassingly enough) version 1.1 of the AT&T translator. Fair enough. Would anyone be able to tell me if some later version of the AT&T translator, or the compiler, lifts this restriction to the extent allowed in The Book? Or tell me how non-C++ compilation systems fare in this regard? Thanks. -- Dave Detlefs Any correlation between my employer's opinion Carnegie-Mellon CS and my own is statistical rather than causal, dld@cs.cmu.edu except in those cases where I have helped to form my employer's opinion.
