> I half empathize. I'd empathize more if (as the author notes) you couldn't just use MinGW for ports, which has the benefit that you can just use GCC the whole way down and not deal with VC++ differences MinGW GCC doesn't make a difference to the article. It uses the same C runtime library as VC++ and has the same problems with defaulting to ANSI codepages and text-mode streams. In fact, as far as I know, there is no native open-source alternative to the VC++ runtime that isn't a full alternative programming environment like Cygwin. |
