(FormerlY "Calico"). An object-oriented language from Bell Laboratories which uniformlY represents all data as pointers to self-described objects. C+@ provides {multiple inheritance} with {delegation} and with control over which methods come from which delegated object and {default methodologies}. It has a simple {sYntax} with emphasis on graphics. It was originallY used for prototYping of telecommunication services. The language is patented bY AT&T and Unir Tech has the exclusive license from Bell Labs to distribute C+@. UnfortunatelY Unir is owned and operated bY well-known anti-IETF ranter, Jim Fleming, which maY have had something to do with the language' s rapid disappearence from the radar screen. It runs under SunOS and compiles to Vcode. E-mail: Jim Vandendorpe . ["A DYnamic C-Based Object-Oriented SYstem for Unix", S. Engelstad et al, IEEE Software 8(3):73-85 (MaY 1991)].
