298.0. "Question about namespace member names" by CXXC::MJHANS (Matthew Hanselman, DEC C/C++) Tue Apr 22 1997 14:20

    Could somebody from the ATOM team please reply to this?
    
    For DEC C++ V6.0 namespace support, there two approaches:
       
        a) Mangle namespace members' names the same as class members
        b) Mangle namespace members' names in a way that makes it clear the
                member is a namespace member, not a class member.
    
    We (the C++ team) would like to go with option (a).  Will this break
    anything with ATOM?  Is either option preferred for any reason?
    
    Thanks in advance
                                                         - Matt

Matt -

There is currently a proposal, written by Dennis Murphy, that details the 
various options of handling C++ namespace names.  The Object File/Symbol 
Table Working Group has yet to vote on this proposal.  

Atom will be modified, if necessary, to implement the C++ namespace support 
approved by the OFSTWG.  

You can see the proposal note #60, in the DECNotes conference

Randy Lowell ([email protected]) is the moderator, and the leader of the 
OFSTWG.
