I've noticed several obstacles with the compilation. For example this environment insists that we put all headers under a stdafx header, which I managed to find a way to get around. But there are other issues. For example, Visual Studio claims that there is no such thing as std::numeric_limits. Also, it gives a bizarre error that there is something wrong with the stdio headers in my files-- except that I don't use stdio, I use iostream. I don't need all the fancy windows-specific C++ routines, but I need to use Visual Studio as a compiler. I was wondering if anyone experienced with it can give me a hint or two about compiling portable code with it with minimum overhead. For example, is there an option to check to let it know we are compiling iso code? Also, are there any online tutorials or guides for people who need to migrate from gcc to visual Studio 2003? If not, any good books that don't dwell on C++, but just teaches the ..Net 2003 environment? Thanks, RS Back to top Ian Collins Guest Posted: Sat Aug 26, 2006 8:20 am    Post subject: Re: compiling iso c++ code in Visual Studio environment RS wrote: Quote: Hi all, My code compiles well with gcc on linux and OS X, but now I have to run it at work, and my only choice is Visual Studio .Net 2003 environment on windows, which I had never used before.

You'd do better by posting to a VS group, this one is for the C++ language, not specific tools. -- Ian Collins.
