BeOS PREVIEW RELEASE PORTING LAB
——————————–
Be Developer services is working on setting up a Preview Release porting
lab to help port applications to the Preview Release as quickly as
possible. Applications written for DR8 will not be binary-compatible with
the DR9 release, thus developers will need to recompile their code and make
some modifications in order to take advantage of new functionality.

To all,
Be, Inc. distributed the BeOS DR8.2 in December. As you know, this version
was bound into the January, 1997 issue of MacTech Magazine. The BeOS
software expires on April 1. Good news though: Be has released an update
(see below) that removes the date limitation.
If you are still interested in seeing the BeOS, there are still a few
copies of this back issue available (due to a rare situation that we were
able to get extra copies).

Subject: [ANN] Raven 1.0 A new C++ framework
I’ve recently uploaded Raven 1.0 to Info-Mac. Raven is a new C++ framework
for Macintosh programming. Raven is similar to PowerPlant and MacApp but
takes full advantage of newer C++ features, has a more modular structure,
and makes extensive use of programming by contract.
Like ODF and MacApp Raven makes extensive use of multiple inheritance by
means of mixin classes. Raven also uses the standard C++ classes wherever
possible, including the string class, the standard exception classes, and
STL.
