| (language) | C+@ - (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.
