Thanks for staying so strongly on top of it Walter...
One of these days Bor(ing)land and M$ are going to break out is

That being said... I took a C++ class last year at University. The prof said we could use any compiler, GCC, MS, Borland, whatever (he only accepted paper printouts of the assignments). I found dmc at the time and bought a CD. To my disappointment, the template support was not quite ready and I had to use Borland C++ Builder for the assignments instead. Now I have gone back to the coding assignments that I did in that class and they all compile now with DM. Great progress.

Same deal here. When I started trying to use DMC++ with STLSoft, it was riddled with ICEs. Now there're only a few parts of the libs that cause them, and I've got simple workarounds for many of them.

I think Walter's proficiency can be explained by (i) obviously he's got a
bit of talent, and (ii) he's in the code up to his armpits day-on-day, and
that affords a great amount of efficiency in applying changes. That's what
gets lost when projects are divided up within teams, which is necessitated
by large projects. Clearly the large amount of (i) has allowed him to be
(ii).

(And, yes, I'll post simplified bug reports soon. :)

Much credit goes to all the DMC++ participants here who helped me a lot with isolating down the problems.
