1464.5ANSI C++ has made this illegal; comments?DECCXX::AMARTINAlan H. MartinThu Mar 27 1997 12:5416
Re .0, .1, .3:

				***** NOTE *****

All of these sample programs are *not* legal ANSI C++ programs -
``friend class T;'' has been made quite illegal in the draft standard sometime
in the past couple of seasons.

We have not yet decided whether it is possible or desireable to permit them to
be compiled by the V6.0 ANSI compiler under a putative ``-arm'' compatibility
switch.  However, we do anticipate supporting an ARM-based V5.* compiler in
parallel during ANSI V6.0's rollout.

Feel free to comment here upon any requirements for -arm support of
``friend class T''.
