Use of deprecated C++ in DDD

[andrew . marlow]

I am trying to build DDD on HPUX 10.20B using aCC and have
come across several compiler warnings about the use of
file-scoped static. The compiler says it is ignoring the storage class
directive. This is a warning, not an error, so the build proceeds but the
executable will not work properly. I understand that file-scoped static
has been (relatively) recently deprecated by ANSI so I understand
why the compiler does this. It is a pity that it does the wrong thing though.
It stops DDD from working properly. Are there any plans to replace
the file-scoped statics with class-scoped statics ?

Regards,

Andrew M.
