Has anyone compared the compliance of various C++ compilers with Standard C++ (98 or 03)? A couple of Google searches haven't found anything.

Quote: Has anyone compared the compliance of various C++ compilers with Standard C++ (98 or 03)? Various library providers (dinkumware, boost, ...) will tell you how well their libraries work with various compilers. As a general rule, compilers that do poorly with these libraries have compliance problems. Of course there are language features that not every library will test. In addition to translating and executing valid programs, a complaint compiler must diagnose some invalid constructs. I'm not aware of any published results in this area. Of course a compiler might be able to meet the diagnostic requirements of the standard by always issuing a warning: "This translation unit may have problems." --- [ comp.std.c++ is moderated.
