I have brought this up before, and have been soundly rebuffed, but have we considered supporting some other compiler that
runs on Wndows instead of the MS compiler?Hypothetically, how bad would the MS compiler have to be for us not to support it? Suppose it only compiled C programs,
would we just write everything in C and continue to "support" the MS compiler?If MS is *not* planning on fixing these kinds of things anyway, then why we should we tie ourselves to such a compiler?
I suspect that the typical "market" for this toolkit will be sophisticated enough to install another compiler if they have
to. Don't you think so?Regards,
Ross
