C++ features in CodeWarrior Pro 4 release coming next month include

- support for member templates (with some restrictions)
- support for class template partial specializations
- support for virtual function overrides with covariant return types
- support for partial template function ordering
- support for function-try-blocks

With the approach of the fall semester, I'm interested in putting
together a summary of the compliance status of _generally_available_ C++
compilers so I can make recommendations to my students.  The last time
http://www.cyberport.com/~tangent/programming/stl/compatibility.html was
updated was late March, and I suspect that there have been changes
since.  For example, Metrowerks just released a Codewarrior interim
version that they indicate addresses the following deficiencies in their
support of the standard:

- support for class template partial specializations
- support for virtual function overrides with covariant return types
- size limit for fully expanded macros

I believe there has been a recent release of gcc as well.

Help?
