Not many people know this, but C++ is not a supported language on the Net Yaroze, according to the folks at Sony Japan. Some semblance of C++ was working with the first release of CodeWarrior for Net Yaroze, but with the large patch we just released, all C++ has been disabled. There was a problem with our MIPS compiler and C++ support, and rather than delay the patch, we released it because Sony doesn't support C++ on the Net Yaroze. C++ in an unsupported form will return in the next major release of the tools. > For instance, the compiler steadfastly refuses to have anything > to do with namespaces; also, it seemed to think that just about Even if Sony supported C++ on the Net Yaroze, we have not implemented namespaces in our C++ frontend. > P.S. -- When the final update CD is sent out to Registered Owners, > is there any chance that printed documentation will be available/ > included?

The manual is less than 200 pages, and if you print 2 pages to a sheet of paper, it's actually not that huge. Let us know if you have any additional questions.
