C++ has not been included in Plan 9 since the third edition, but the
source code is available, and Steve Simon has made some updates.
Once you have abaco the way I said to get it, you also have Federico
Benavento's contrib system. With it, all you need is
contrib/install steve/cfront
Otherwise, get contrib with
/n/sources/contrib/fgb/root/rc/bin/contrib/install fgb/contrib
and then do the above. Then, to compile a C++ program:
c++/8c x.C # considering .C is the C++ extension
c++/8l -o x x.8
The one thing: don't use
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
You will need
#include <iostream.h>
which does that for you.

Another question from newbie :
I have noticed some discussion(s) on Internet about C++ language
for Plan9;
I'm wondering what is a bottom line of the story:
- is there a C++ compiler? Any plans for it?
- has it been 'banned' from Plan9?
- has gcc been ported to Plan9? ( as was suggested in one of the
messages I saw)...
Thank for your attention.
Michael.
