I think that as of version 2.5.6, the standard g++ will compile the standard 3.1 InterViews completely successfully. Note that you’ll need the -fno-for-scope flag if you use gcc-2.7.0; with 2.7.2 you may be able to omit this flag but you’ll get warnings. According to Jason Merrill, gcc-2.7.0 and newer works with Rogue Wave’s tools.h++ class library, but you may want to grab `ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/g++/Tools.h++-6.1-patch’. Again, you’ll need the -fno-for-scope flag since Rogue Wave hasn’t fixed their code to comply with the new standard yet.
