DMC++ now passes 100% of the tests in Dr. Brian Malloy's test suite at Conformance Comparison of C++ compilers: Oct 2003 published in Dr. Dobb's http://www.cs.clemson.edu/~malloy/projects/ddj2/ddj2.html

For comparison, here's the table from the article on how the other compilers did:

Compiler  Clause                                                 Results

Total Cases     65 2 18 13 76 81 37 33 45 50 54 188 12 674

For DMC++:

DMC++ 8.45     0 0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0   0  0   0  100.00

Dr. Malloy created the test suite by adapting the 'book' examples from the C++ Standard. Not reflected in these tests are the fact that DMC++ also passes 100% of the 'book' preprocessor examples.

No, DMC++ still doesn't do export <g>.

Many thanks to all who helped with this release. It's an important milestone for DMC++.

Dude!

You ***ROCK***

Does that mean 8.45 now throws bad_alloc on op new?

No. I'm working on a way to do it that would be backwards compatible with the NULL return behavior. I'll not claim that 8.45 has reached 100% conformance; it hasn't.

In the meantime, global operator new can be overridden to throw.

Ok

btw, I'm upgrading the STLSoft libs wrt 0x0845, and am very pleased to find a lot of things that DMC++ has caught up with several aspects where is has previously lagged behind the crowd.

There're still plenty of areas for improvement, though. ;-)
