Why not try the Common Objects Library from ATT? It is available on most (?all) platforms that support cfront, and I think it is usually distributed is *source* form, so it should be fairly easily prted to other platforms. It is a (comparatively) simple library that still provides all of the basic container classes. It may not be as 'sophisticated' as some class libraries, but I find it easier to understand and use than the more complex libraries. It's implementation emphasized efficiency, but has sill managed to provide ample flexibility. -- swf@elsegundoca.ncr.com sarima@netcom.com The peace of God be with you.
