Does in run *under* PS Smalltalk-80, or as >a separate standalone system? Is it selling or still under development? Talk to Steve Lavine @ (800) 822-7880. Friday he told me: It does run under ST80 on Suns under SunView, it is under development, alpha test in December, Beta in Jan, ship in mid 2nd Qtr '89. Currently it uses cfront, provides ST80 environment and tools for C++ development: editor, browser, "incremental linking", "incremental compilation" <- I don't quite know what they really mean by this: and automatic dependency "control", again, I'm not sure from the one page blurb they handed out at OOPSLA'88. Sounds interesting, were may be an alpha site, probably a beta site, and I'm sure we will buy some licenses here at JPL. disclaimer: I don't have any vested interest in ParcPlace systems, and I'm not yet a customer: might be someday, tho' ____ ==> [ unzip here ] |____)-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8- You can also get information by sending e-mail to Info@ParcPlace.com George W.
