Question #1: What on earth have Java and Sun Microsystems to do with C++??

Question #2: What has a C++ compiler with nonstandard features to do with
developing portable software that adheres to standards?

Ad #2 I can tell you from my experience that the answer in a well-managed
project is: Nothing. You just don't use those nonstandard features.

Even though an MS Visual Studio project is maintained for POV-Ray, the render
engine is designed to compile on Unix systems just as fine. And even the
Windows frontend is designed to compile with other compiler suites, most
notably the Intel C++ compiler.

Mingw sucks just as much as any other particular runtime environment you are
custom-tailoring a product for. The best solution is to not custom-tailor it to
*ANY* particular RTE.

So shut up that childish "my platform is better than yours", because that's not
how *real* portable software is developed.

Perhaps Microsoft C++ extensions? ;)

.... and by the way, no: Most likely not, because the older versions of POV-Ray
used the Intel C++ as the reference compiler ,)

You don't like the way he's developing the software?

Well, take it or leave it then.

It was rhetorical, duh.

Let point out another little additional tidbit, instead of just answering a Q
with info, you have to get all egotisica with some moronic superiority complex.

Thinking you are superior to another only proves your inferiority.

No wonder there is not more going on here, you're all a bunch of jerks.

I wouldn't help you losers, ever.

yah well, clearly the crap is infectious, I admit got carried away, and the
sentiment was poorly worded.


Not to imply your loserdom, you leave me with the feeling that loserdom cannot
be helped by me or anyone else. THe superior one keeps an open mind, meaning I
can be swayed with improvement or change coming from *them* seeing the light.

Even tho it has always gone "this way", it *can* go differently. The arrogant
moron without humility will say, because it has always gone this way, I *know*
it will always be this way. It has been called many things such as backward,
obtuse, or just plain stuck.

Anyway, you ppl are really sickening, so will leave you, to your angst and
intolerable bewilderment.
