Is libg++ 2.7.x considered a release-version ? (as opposed to libstdc++) then, this is from the libg++ 2.7.2 'news'-file: * libg++ no longer builds as a standalone package; it has to be embedded into the libstdc++-2.8.1.1 or egcs-1.x packages. which leads me to believe that libg++ is only the general toolkit part of libstdc++ (the classes that aren't part of the ISO standard). is that true ? Since about when is the standard (ISO 14882) c++-library being developed ? why has libg++ (lgpp*) been called "deprecated" in previous djgpp-releases (there had been a note in the ZIP-picker) ? thanks, -- Felix Natter
