Re: ILE C++ standards

[Kelly Beard <kenverybigliar@xxxxxxxxx>]

You're surprised by this?  :-)  Not to sound rude or condescending, but
you, like most everyone else in the universe, probably don't do a lot of
C++ work on the 400.  Unfortunately, we do.  We're on V7R3 here.  IBM is
not even on C++11, technically, but on C++0x, and you have to, for
some reason, enable a command option to get that going.  Only God in Heaven
knows why they cannot stay current.  I suspect that maybe the OS is written
with whatever C++ was in force at the time and so that is what we're stuck
with, but that's only my uneducated guess.

How many lines is this utility?  Probably originally written on a Linux
system with g++?
