Does Visual C++ .NET implement C99, more specifically does this compile in VC.NET?

Does Visual C++ .NET compile a macro with a variable number of arguments? example LOG(...) \ { \ LogText(__VA_ARGS__); \ }

No.

Argh. You know this because you have tried it?

Yes. And from the specs.

So we have to wait for Visual C++ 7.0? Any info on when that is supposed to be out? I am assuming .NET is not 7.0.

VC++.Net 2002 is VC++ 7.0
VC++.Net 2003 is VC++ 7.1

Wonderful... So to get C99 in Visual C++ we have to wait for version 8.0 or later.

Hmm, is there a way to use the gcc compiler from within the Visual C++ 6.0 IDE? LOL

I am sure there is. I would assume you can simply create a batch file to compile your project with gcc. Find the option in VC++ to disable the up to date check for when you run or debug a project. Then simply run the batch file before the debugger.

I thought there was a rollout trick to have the macro have variable argument list. It's in the smart asset library. Hmm, let me look it up.

AFAIK MS have no intentions of implementing C99.

char a[99999],*p=a;int main(int c,char**V){char*v=c>0?1[V]:(char*)V;if(c>=0)for(;*v&&93!=*v;){62==*v&&++p||60==*v&&--p||43==*v&&++*p||45==*v&&--*p||44==*v&&(*p=getchar())||46==*v&&putchar(*p)||91==*v&&(*p&&main(0,(char**)(--v+2))||(v=(char*)main(-1,(char**)++v)-1));++v;}else for(c=1;c;c+=(91==*v)-(93==*v),++v);return(int)v;}  /*** drpizza@battleaxe.net ***/
