C+@




(Formerly Calico).

An object-oriented language from Bell Laboratories which uniformly represents all data as a pointer to a self-described object.

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.

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.
